Patrick Sexton created a free and useful revamp of his tools at Varvy.com. He calls it the Google Guidelines tool. Why? Well, he went through changed in the Google guidelines for us a few months ago and decided to put a tool together that tested them all.

You can find all the of the Google webmaster guidelines here and now, while they are called guidelines, things like having a robots.txt is not necessary if you do not want to block GoogleBot. So keep that in mind. This tool doesn’t imply you are 100% doing something wrong but shows where you may be missing something based on those guidelines.

Here is the test for this site (yes, I know we have issues) – click on it to see the full screen version:
