This quick-tip introduces the Google Webmaster Tools structured information testing tool, which gives yous a sentiment of how your site looks to the search-engines.

Today I discovered that Google Webmaster Tools offers tools for testing the structured information on your website.

I haven't seen whatever announcements almost it, only noticed it at that spot when I was looking for something else - as well as then I'm non certain if it's actually new, only new-to-me, or I've been lucky plenty to larn a it earlier most people do.

You tin forcefulness out uncovering it hither (or at to the lowest degree that's where I'm finding it):    http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets

Once you're at that page, yous tin forcefulness out glue inwards either an URL (your own, or somebody else) or or as well as then HTML, press preview - as well as the organisation volition present yous how the meta-tags, open-graph tags as well as other Google-supported structured data on your site looks to Google.   This isn't of import for many bloggers - but is really useful information if SEO matters for your blog.

And yous tin forcefulness out also "Select the HTML tab to sentiment the retrieved HTML as well as experiment amongst adjusting it." - as well as and then exam out the upshot of making changes to your template etc.

The results present you:

• A preview of how the URL looks inwards a Google search-engine-results-page.
• Authorship testing results - whether convey a Google+ page or profile associated amongst the site
• Authorship e-mail verifications results
• Publisher markup verification status
• An extract of the structured data

I don't fifty-fifty get down to sympathize what all the results mean.    And I'm non certain if nosotros tin forcefulness out create something almost all results that are shown - eg   checking Blogger-hints-and-tips currently tells me that at that spot are values for properties that I've never ready (eg blogid as well as postid)  and also properties that aren't business office of the schema, eg:

• Error: Page contains holding "image_url" which is non business office of the schema.
• Error: Page contains holding "blogid" which is non business office of the schema.
• Error: Page contains holding "postid" which is non business office of the schema.

But, much similar the syntax-checker provided past times Facebook for checking how successful yous were at  installing Open Graph tags I'm certain that this volition move a useful SEO diagnostic tool.
