After launching your site you can setup tools to assist in monitoring the way Google crawls, indexes, and serves up your site in the search engine results. Visit www.google.com/webmasters/tools/ in order to begin the easy process of setting this tool up. If you're not already logged into to another Google application, start by logging in using your gmail.com username and password.

Once logged in, the very simple interface presents only two options.

1. Add a Website
2. Get Help

From this point, enter your domain name in the field, and press continue.

NOTE: Google does differentiate between the www version of your domain, and the non-www version of your domain. (e.g. www.mydomain.com / mydomain.com). Our recommendation is for the www version of your website.

The next screen will ask you to verify your domain in one of two ways.
