What is Google Search Console?
Google Search Console is a free tool from Google that tracks your website’s indexing and search performance. It shows how Google sees your site, and where the opportunities for improvement are.
What you see with it
- The search queries you appear for in Google.
- Impressions, clicks and your average position.
- Indexing issues, so you can fix them early.
- Growth in organic traffic after a new menu or SEO update.
How to connect it in Sitebite
- Go to Integrations and open Google Search Console.
- Paste your Google Site Verification code (the HTML tag method in Search Console).
- Click Connect with Google and authorise your Google account.
- Select your property (your website) from the list.
- View your data via View Data in the dashboard.
Search Console and the SEO checklist
Search Console shows how you’re performing. The SEO checklist then helps you fix issues per page. Also verify your site with Bing Webmaster Tools for extra reach.
Tip: be patient with data
After connecting, it takes a while before Google collects data. Check back after a few days and follow the trend over weeks, not hours.
