You have just created a site and now you want the world to see it. To be more specific, to people looking for the same thing that you have to share. At that time do you know how you can add your site to Google’s search index? Or have you wondered how often Google crawls the web?

A study on Indian websites reveals that a 83% of Indian sites do not use XML Sitemaps and about 50% of them do not make use of the robots.txt file.
After looking at the results we realized that there are a lot of Indian webmasters searching for answers to questions regarding websites. So we decided to pitch in to help out. First, we sought a common platform to serve as a mode of communication in the Indian Sub-Continent. In order to do so, we have set up our very own Official Google Webmasters Community on the most popular Google product in India, Orkut.

Now you don’t have to search for solutions to every webmaster related problem. You can do it while you are sending a scrap to your friend.
So if you own a website, if you think you can make the web a better place or if you need help, join the Webmaster Community. Let us know how we can help you share, learn and reach out to everyone on the web.
