[...] The feature was not longlived, though. Within a few hours of my post on it the ’site diagnostics’ tab disappeared from AdSense publisher’s reports pages and it has not been seen since. [...]

[...] Last week Google added a new Site Diagnostics page to the AdSense console. It has since disappeared. Darren over at ProBlogger wrote to the AdSense team to find out what was going on, and Google wrote back that it was just a temporary test. [...]

To me, it seemed nearly the same as the sitemaps information anyway. I think I was a bit confused at first by it (thought I logged into the wrong Google account).
It would be nice to see something like this just for adsense though.

Nice letter from Google. It’s almost like a human :)

Seems like this is a tool to cross-promote their Sitemaps program?

I noticed this as well right now but fortunately I had a chance to check it to see that I was fine last week.

Thanks for the heads up last week Darren, these things may come and go but if you get a chance to take advantage of them at least you get a bit of an insight to make sure things are all in place for you

Thanks for taking the time to email Google Darren and explaining to us the mystery.

I didn’t see any pages with errors in the tool for the very short time it was up, and that note isn’t very much of an explanation.

After reading that post I was hoping this would be a publisher wide tool and not just select (as I thought when I couldn’t find it, turns out I was just late).

Running a blog network I try to see how my ads are appearing to optimize for clickthroughs and switching between blogs, adsense, and stat services is a pain. Hope they bring it back.

So that explains it, I was waiting for it to come back.

I managed to check it out while it was still there, it didn’t report any errors for me, yet there were one or two reported in my google sitemaps pages (although the errors adsense might show might be different, although strange how they recommend that as a replacement)

Did anyone ever see any pages showing up using this Site Diagnostics tool?, maybe it didn’t work right yet? lol
