Google Search Console allows users to monitor and manage their website's presence on Google Search. It provides tools to measure search traffic, identify issues that impact indexing or site functionality, and ensure pages are properly displayed. The overview dashboard summarizes key data, while specific reports offer insights on index coverage, submitted sitemaps, and removal requests. Configuring the tool involves verifying site ownership, submitting an XML sitemap, and exploring the various metrics and diagnostics available.

4. How to Configure Google Search Console
• The first step, if you haven't already, is to
register your website with Google
Search Console.
• To do so, go to the Search Console
website and sign in with your Google
Account – preferably the same one you
use for Google Analytics.
• When you click the Add Property button
in the upper left corner, you'll see the
following dialogue box:
2

5. Ownership Verified Google
• Choose the URL prefix because it gives
you more verification options.
• Following that, you must validate this site as
your own.
• Previously, this required embedding code into
your website header or uploading an HTML
file to your web server.
• If you already have Google Analytics, it will
automatically verify your site and you will see
the following:

6. Using xml sitemap in website
• If this does not work for you, try one of the
following alternatives for verification.
• Once your site has been verified, you should submit a
sitemap if you have one.
• This is a simple XML file that informs Google Search
Console about the pages on your website.
• If you already have one, you can usually find it in your
browser by typing http://yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml.
• If you don't already have one, you can use online tools
like XML Sitemaps to create one.

7. How to Configure Google Search Console
• If you use WordPress to run a website on your
own domain, you can install the Google XML
Sitemaps plugin.
• After you've activated the plugin, go to your WordPress
dashboard's Settings and click on XML-Sitemap.
• There should be nothing else you need to do because
the plugin should have already generated your
sitemap.
• Your URL can be found at the very top of the page.

8. How to Configure Google Search Console
• Return to Google Search Console and paste the
link address under "Add a new site map" in GSC.
• It may take a few days for Search Console to
begin collecting data about your website.
• Wait a moment, then continue reading to find
out what else you can learn from Google Search
Console!

9. Overview of Google Search Console
• When you go to your website in GSC, the first
thing you'll see is your Overview.
• This is a summary of the most important data in Google
Search Console. By clicking on the relevant links, you
can navigate to specific areas such as your Crawl
Errors, Search Analytics, and Sitemaps from this
screen.
• You can also use the menu in the left sidebar to
navigate to these areas.
• Search Results can be found in the left sidebar.

10. Report on Index Coverage
• This report contains information about the URLs
that Google attempted to index on your chosen
property, as well as any issues that Google
encountered.
• As Googlebot crawls the Internet, it processes each
page it encounters in order to compile an index of every
word it encounters on each page.
• It also considers content tags and attributes such as
titles and alt texts.

11. Report on Sitemaps
• I mentioned sitemaps earlier, so I'll go over them
briefly again.
• Under "Sitemaps" in GSC, you'll find information about
your sitemap, such as whether you have one and when
it was last updated.
• If you notice that the last time your sitemap was
downloaded was a while ago, you should submit it
again to refresh the number of URLs submitted.
• Otherwise, this allows you to keep track of how Google
is reading your sitemap and whether or not all of your
pages are being viewed correctly.

12. Removals by google
• If you need to temporarily remove a page from
Google's search results, go to removals.
• You can hide a page for about 90 days before it
expires.
• You must do this on your actual website if you
want to permanently remove a page from
Google's crawling.

13. Thank you for participating!
Have a great
day ahead.
