#2. Bing Webmaster Tool
Same as Google Webmaster tools, Microsoft’s Bing is also having webmaster tools. It also have to submit XML sitemap to get our pages indexed and appear in Bing Search.
One benefit of Bing is that it will automatically submit sitemap to Yahoo SERP also. So that there in no need to again submit to Yahoo.
Most of the webmaster don’t use this because they concentrate more on Google Webmaster’s but I would like to share that even Facebook uses Bing search to show its web result. So it is better to go with Bing also along with Google.
#3 Google Analytics
Google Analytics gives performance of website or blog. It calculate daily new page views, new visitors, new search engine request where webmaster can keep a tract about from where website is getting more traffic.
You can check from which device, network, country, city, language etc you are getting page views.
You can add your goal in Google Analytics which you can attend by more quality posting. It also keep analysis result of your Adsense earning.
#4 Google Account
Google Account is standalone account which you can use to login all Google products online. Like Gmail, Blogger, YouTube, Google+, Sites, Adsense, Webmaster, Analytics and ample of other Google products.
I personally maintain one separate Google Account apart from personal mail account which is fully dedicated to webmaster and to manage my all sites.
