Will Google add guest accounts to Webmaster Tools?

Here is a question from Ian M from United Kingdom. “Is Google planning to create read-only “Guest accounts” for Webmaster Tools? Many clients (particularly in heavily regulated industries e.g. banks) are very reluctant to provide access to a third party.”

Great feature suggestion! I have no idea! Because the Webmaster Tools team they have to plan their resources and what they work on just like any other team and I can see a valid use for this, at the same time there are other things that the tools folks are working on that are really useful. Some people want infrastructure updates so that back link reports always rock solid or new data is really really fresh and it’s hard to play that off. So it’s a valid suggestion, I appreciate the suggestion I don’t know what level priority they give that, because there’s probably a relatively limited impact compared to making reports rock solid or overhauling our UI’s and things like that, that’s going to be useful for every single person not just for a smaller faction. But that’s something I can imagine as doing in the future so we’ll definitely take that into account and we appreciate the suggestion.
