Two weeks ago, we were extremely lucky to host the 2015 edition of the Top Contributor Summit
(#TCsummit),
in San Francisco and on Google’s campus in Mountain View, California.
Google Top Contributors
are an exceptional group of passionate Google product enthusiasts who share their expertise across
our international help forums to support millions of Google users every year. Google’s Top
Contributor Summit is an event organised every two years, to celebrate these amazing users. This
year we had the pleasure to welcome 526 Top Contributors, from all around the world.
Under the motto “Learn, Connect, Celebrate”, Top Contributors had the chance to learn more about
our products, get insights on the future of Google, connect with Googlers and Top Contributors
from various products and, finally, to celebrate their positive impact on our products and users.
We also had the chance to hold Webmaster-specific sessions, which gave Googlers the unique
opportunity to meet
56 of our Webmaster Top Contributors,
representing 20 countries and speaking 14 different languages.
Throughout the day, we had in-depth sessions about Google Webmaster guidelines, Search Console and
Google Search. We discussed the most common issues that users are bringing up in our international
webmaster forums, and listened to the Top Contributors’ feedback regarding our Search tools. We
also talked about the Top Contributor program itself and additional opportunities for our users to
benefit from both Google and the TCs’ support. Product managers, engineers and search quality
Googlers attended the sessions to listen and bring the feedback given by Top Contributors and
users on the forum back to their teams.
At Google, we are grateful to have the incredible opportunity to meet and connect with some of
the most insightful members of the webmaster community and get their feedback on such important
topics. It helps us be sure that Google keeps focusing on what really matters to webmasters,
content creators, and users.

Webmaster help forum.
How we apply this
We archive Search Central announcements because client questions often trace back to a change that was announced years ago. Reading the original is faster than reconstructing it from second-hand summaries.
