New Adsense Feature - Site Crawler Diagnostics

Sitemaps creeping into AdSense backend

[frakilk]

Seems like a bit of Sitemaps functionality is creeping in the AdSense reports. I just noticed a new link under the reports tab called "Site Diagnostics". Text under the new tab:

Site Crawler Diagnostics
Our crawler was unable to access the URLs listed below. We encourage you to resolve these issues in order to allow us to crawl more of your pages and provide relevant ads.

For help resolving issues with any blocked URLs, please visit our Help Center

This crawl report is updated weekly, and we are unable to accommodate requests for more frequent crawling. Please also keep in mind that this report is not exhaustive.

I just checked, and it says:

You currently have no blocked URLs.

Excellent move,
Now if only we can have all sitemaps and analytics features with AdSense in one interface.

I think they just renamed a feature they already had.
In the past it was a summry of URLs not crwled based on an analysis of your robots.txt

Sorry, thought about the fuctionality in the google sitemaps menus. Now I've seen it in adsense as well. Long week, too hot weather.

A visit to the adsense blog will tell you more. It is simply a feature to let you know if the adsense is unable to reach any adsense pages, and offers a short list of reasons why ('robots.txt' or 'url not found').
