Yahoo adds new Webmaster features to Site Explorer

[mandy]

We've listened to your feedback, and are now ready with the next version of Site Explorer--our biggest update since December.

We're now organized around sites you'd like to track. You can explore these, and add feeds to each site. Once you authenticate your site, you can see much more information about your URLs as you explore your site, and monitor feeds you've submitted.

    *  More information about sites you own, including:
          o Last Crawled Date and Language for your Site URLs
          o Subdomains of your site
    * Feed submissions are much smoother. You can submit RSS, Atom and URL lists, and manage all of them from one place. For authenticated sites, you can also track when they were submitted and processed.
    * UpdateNotification Web Service to notify us of feed or site updates, part of the suite of Site Explorer APIs you already know and love. Since these return the same data as the tool, we recommend using them for automated applications.

Mandy,

What is Site Explorer? Is it something that  only  a business with multiple sites would use?

This is site explorer: https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/

You can find out how many of your site's pages are indexed in Yahoo, how many incoming links to your site, etc.

Thanks, Mandy!
