More Google issues

Not necessarily more but more information about the current Google Postmaster Tools (GPT) outage. I’ve been reliably informed by folks inside Google that they’re aware of the outage and are working on it.

I’ve been reliably informed by other folks in the industry that they have been told that there is an announcement coming about Google Postmaster Tools.

That’s not a great amount of information, but it’s what we have. As of this morning I checked the few dozen domains my clients use and none of them have data. I have seen other people mention that they are starting to see trickles of data over the last 24 hours.

There has been rampant speculation that this is the launch of an API, but no one who knows is talking. The folks who are talking are saying they don’t think this is an API. But we can always hope.

I thought a better idea was to put together a survey showing how people are using GPT and how high the demand is for an API.
They’re a data company, let’s give them data.

I’ve put together a survey looking at how people are using GPT. It’s 4 pages and average time to take the survey is around 7 minutes. Please give us your feedback on GPT usage.
I’m planning on leaving the survey open through the first week in November. Then I’ll pull data together and share here and with Google.
