Read about Google Search Console

It’s typical for people to check on how a website performance does for specific keywords or queries. Web content owners need to keep track of their site traffic, especially for those who monetise on it. And many tools across the internet can help us check our page traffic. However, it doesn’t help save time to keep finding a reliable page rank checker you can continuously use. Quick recall! In relevance to tracking website stats, I previously discussed some key points that deal with SEO Basics. We went through specifics such as Retrieving data in response to a query and ranking, which refers to page ranking results depending on the content’s algorithm within the index.
What is Google Search Console? How is it relevant to SEO? Google Search Console is a tool that helps website owners keep track of site search traffic and performance and help fix issues to optimise a page for improvement. It’s way better than using non-google property systems for reviewing your web page stats because instead of navigating too and fro page traffic checkers, you can now see your website’s performance in detail in the SERP of a specific term you are searching. And of course, your page URL must be verified via Google Search Console for you to start using it to manage your website traffic.
That means Google pulls up your site data related to the query you searched for, just below the paid positions, and contains the following details: - Number of clicks your site received when users search for that query if relevant to your page - The number of impressions for the question - Average ranking position for that particular query
But take note that these stats are only visible given that you are logged in to the same account you are using to manage your Google Search Console properties. The stats displayed are pulled from data gathered from the past seven days only. There’s a limitation with this, however. It appears that there should be a significant amount of data collected for a relevant query for the results to display, so if your page ranks around 30 and below for that specific query, meaning it has received only a few impressions, then it’s less likely for Google Search Console to display your site data in the SERP (Search Engine Results Page).
Conclusion Google hasn’t officially announced anything about this feature yet, with a few reports of its visibility as it doesn’t seem to be available for everyone except US users on the Chrome browser for now. But let’s hope this new feature is on a testing period and that sooner or later, everyone can utilise its functionality.
