Like the advice you get from the Google Webmaster Central blog? Heute kommt es auf Deutsch. Think I got that right. Two years of college German, and that’s the best I can do. German speakers can now keep up on the happenings with Google’s support for site owners in their native language. Some posts from the English-language blog will be translated, and the German Webmaster-Zentrale Blog will also have its own original posts (its first, the hallo post, is up now).

Warum auf Deutsch? Sagt Google:

This is a tribute to the fact that the German-speaking webmaster community is our second biggest audience of this blog. The German Webmaster Blog will provide you with first-hand information tailored towards our German-speaking webmasters. The blog will contain a mix of German versions of postings from this blog as well as unique postings about market-specific issues.

The post also says that more languages will be coming. As for me, I’m going back to reread Mark Twain’s The Awful German Language to console myself that it’s not my fault I don’t speak better German. Then maybe I’ll start reading the posts over there carefully, to see if at least I can get enough words about suchmaschinen to sound OK.

Welcommen, German Webmaster-Zentrale Blog!
