English Google News & Webmaster Central Hangout: How to manage your site in Google News
26Join us for a *Google News & Webmaster Central office hours hangout* :)
Just a few months ago, Google News launched the Publisher Center tool designed exclusively for you. It’s now the one-stop-shop for you to more quickly and effectively manage the information Google News has on record for your site. Learn what you can do with it and how to access it. Google News’ Community Manager, Stacie Chan, will also be able to answer your Publisher Center-specific questions.
This session is about Google News. Add your questions to this event page and vote on existing questions!
This is a Hangout on Air here on Google+. It works best with a webcam + headset. You can find out more about Hangouts and how to participate at https://sites.google.com/site/webmasterhelpforum/en/office-hours
