Updated Webmaster Guidelines

As Barry at Search Engine Roundtable notes, we’ve been expecting an update to the Google Webmaster Guidelines for a little while. Well, the time has come and the updated guidelines are up. Included in the update are explanations of the supplemental results (under the advanced section) as well as further information on the newly launched Google Sitemaps.

Search Engine Watch covers the story here: Google Adds New Content to “Google Information for Webmasters” FAQ; Explains Supplemental Index and forum discussion at SEW forums is here: New Google Webmaster Guidelines.
