\n Around 20 years after the word was first used, we still refer to ourselves as the Google Webmaster
\n Team because it’s the only term that really covers the wide variety of roles that we have on our
\n team. Although most of us have solid knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript and other web
\n technologies, we also have specialists in design, development, user experience, information
\n architecture, system administration, and project management.\n<\/p>\n

\n In contrast to the Google Webmaster Central Team\u2014which mainly focuses on helping webmasters
\n outside of Google understand web search and how things like crawling and indexing affect their
\n sites\u2014our team is responsible for designing, implementing, optimizing and maintaining Google’s
\n corporate pages, informational product pages, landing pages for marketing campaigns, and our
\n error page. Our team also develops internal tools to increase our productivity and help to
\n maintain the thousands of HTML pages that we own.\n<\/p>\n
\n We’re working hard to follow, challenge and evolve best practices and web standards to ensure
\n that all our new pages are produced to the highest quality and provide the best user experience,
\n and we’re constantly evaluating and updating our legacy pages to ensure their deprecated HTML
\n isn’t just left to rot.\n<\/p>\n

\n standards, and anything else which may be of interest to other webmasters, web designers and web
\n developers. We’ll be posting here on the Webmaster Central Blog when we want to share anything
