"Actionable Insights and Intuitive Dashboard for Website Success"
What do you like best about Google Search Console?

What I appreciate most about Google Search Console is the way it provides straightforward, actionable insights into my website's performance on Google Search. It allows me to identify which keywords are driving traffic, detect issues such as indexing problems, and gain a better understanding of how Google perceives my content. All of this is available for free within an intuitive dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Search Console?

One aspect I find frustrating about Google Search Console is that the data often feels restricted and can be delayed at times. Additionally, the platform doesn't always provide clear explanations for certain issues. Some of the reports are missing detailed context, which makes it more challenging to troubleshoot problems and make informed decisions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential Insights for Boosting Search Performance"
What do you like best about Google Search Console?

What I like best about Google Search Console is how clearly it shows what’s actually happening in search. It gives direct insights from Google itself like which queries are bringing traffic, how pages are performing, and where issues exist so there’s no guesswork.

I especially find the performance and coverage reports helpful for identifying drops, opportunities, and technical problems early. It’s a must-have tool for understanding and improving organic search visibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Search Console?

One thing I dislike about Google Search Console is that the data isn’t always real-time and can lag by a few days, which makes it harder to react quickly when something goes wrong.

Also, some reports especially coverage or indexing issues can feel a bit confusing without enough context or clear next steps. You often have to combine GSC data with other tools to fully understand the root cause. It’s still very useful, but clearer explanations and faster updates would make it even better.

"SEO Goldmine with Instant Insights"
What do you like best about Google Search Console?

I use Google Search Console for analyzing website performance on Google Search. It helps me understand the number of views my pages receive, the clicks from Google search, and the Click Through Rate. I particularly value its ability to show the keywords my site is ranking for, making it a goldmine for Search Engine Optimization. I appreciate that Google Search Console is completely free compared to other third-party SEO tools. It allows me to understand and analyze website performance, from webpage indexing to performance. I like that I can compare performance over different periods and find new keyword ranking opportunities to optimize my site further. The setup was quick and only took a few minutes, which is helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Search Console?

Sometimes it takes a few days to get the updated data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential SEO Tool for Actionable Insights and Reliable Performance"
What do you like best about Google Search Console?

Google Search Console gives real insights into how my website performs on Google Search—what keywords we rank for, click-through rates, and any indexing issues. I like how it directly shows opportunities to improve visibility and quickly alerts me if something is wrong. It’s straightforward, reliable, and essential for monitoring SEO health. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Search Console?

Some data feels delayed or limited, especially historical information and keyword insights compared to paid SEO tools. The interface can be a bit confusing at first, and it doesn’t always provide enough detail about the exact cause of issues. Also, interpreting certain reports still requires SEO knowledge to take proper action. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential Free Tool for Every SEO Professional"
What do you like best about Google Search Console?

I believe Google Search Console is a must-needed free-of-cost tool for every SEO professional, as well as other Digital Marketing professionals. It allows us to check important insights of our search visibility, like the Search terms, pages, countries, and devices. It makes it easier for me to see the performing keywords. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Search Console?

There's nothing much to dislike about Google Search Console, as it is a free-to-use tool. The only thing that requires improvement is that sometimes it shows that we got some clicks and impressions on a page, but it doesn't show the search queries for those, usually, on a site with less organic traffic.

"Google Search Console - The Swiss Army Knife for SEO Specialists"
What do you like best about Google Search Console?

All the Google search performance insights are delivered directly into your Google Search Console account. This tool assists in analyzing which keywords from our website are ranking on the Google SERP, as well as identifying the webpages that are performing well. It also helps generate topic ideas and highlights on-page issues that need attention, such as schema errors and 404 pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Search Console?

The External Links analysis feature could benefit from a more user-friendly interface and smoother navigation. Currently, it takes three clicks to access detailed information about external links, which feels unnecessarily complicated. It would be much more convenient if the interface displayed the URLs directly on the first page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The absolute must-have tool for any website owner"
What do you like best about Google Search Console?

I really appreciate the technical alerts and indexing reports. Google Search Consoleimmediately notifies me if there are critical issues affecting my site's visibility, such as 404 errors, mobile usability problems, or security issues. This peace of mind allows me to fix problems quickly before they impact my business revenue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Search Console?

Honestly, it is hard to find faults in a free tool that is so essential for business. If I had to pick one thing, it would be that the data is not real-time; there is usually a lag of about 12-24 hours in the reporting, which requires some patience when tracking immediate changes.

"Incredible Insights and Effortless SEO Tracking"
What do you like best about Google Search Console?

What I like best about Google Search Console is its user-friendly and comprehensive insights into how a website is performing in the search results of Google. The detailed performance metrics, including impressions, clicks, and average positions, allow for easy tracking of Search engine optimization efforts. Integration is also very easy, as we add the site and verify it by uploading HTML file to our website main root. Tools like Index Coverage Reports and URL Inspection are very useful to identify and resolve technical issues, while the focus on Core Web Vitals aligns SEO with user experience. Overall, this platform is an incredible tool for diagnosing, monitoring, and improving a site's search performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Search Console?

One drawback of this platform is that some data can feel delayed or limited, especially when we are trying to get insights in real-time. Sometimes, historical data restrictions and sampling can make deep trend analysis challenging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential Tool for SEO Monitoring and Improvements"
What do you like best about Google Search Console?

I find Google Search Console incredibly helpful for monitoring my website's SEO success and resolving SEO issues daily. I appreciate the ability to find ranking keywords and pages to improve their ranking. The new feature that shows website linking and the insights feature provides everything I need in one place. I also use the indexing feature daily for blogs, which is beneficial when I need to urgently index some pages by requesting Google, making it a handy tool for my needs. Lastly, the initial setup was easy, requiring just a few lines of code in the website's head tag. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Search Console?

I feel that it can be improved in the feature of backlink disavow. I've submitted many times to disavow backlinks, but it didn't work. Backlinks still show up in SEMrush. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
