If you are a webmaster with multiple sites – especially those who tend to have multiple sites in the same or similar industries – it can be easy to forget exactly which site you are looking at when logged into your Google Webmaster Tools account.

Google used to display the URL of the site you were currently looking at on the drop down site selector in the top right corner.  But a recent change made it so the “Please select a site” was displayed by default, rather than the URL of the site the webmaster was currently working in.

Fortunately, a change in Google Webmaster Tools is in the pipeline to correct the problem.

So, while we might not know specifically when it is coming (perhaps with the new Search Analytics?), webmasters won’t be annoyed by the “Please select a site” instead of the URL for too much longer.
