Fetch as Googlebot : there are some problems with non-UTF8 characters |
Also new on the Dashboard that you can choose (forward dropdown) between e-mailadresses and usernames when you have multiple ones plus the new language dropdown box under the adresses. |
Hey Tom :) What do you mean with non-UTF8 characters? Do you have any example URLs to check? Thanks! John |
Hi John, here it is http://i36.tinypic.com/ae5rp4.png it's about this page http://www.zorgloob.com/2009/10/google-street-view-direction-le-mont.asp And it's correctly indexed by Google http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=%22Google+Street+View+:+direction+le+Mont+Saint-Michel%22 (correctly = no encoding error, but it's full of spam ^^) |
Thanks, Tom, I'll check that out and pass it on to the team.
Cheers John |
