How to use Google Search Console? (Take my website as an example)

Teach you how to use the Google Search Console step by step.

1. Specific steps

Step1

Click the URL: https://search.google.com/search-console/about

Then click "Start now."

Step2

Select the left: "Domain." 


Step3

Input your domain.com, for my example:

Step4

Click the button "GO TO PROPERTY."


2. Explanation

Why do I need to enter "yourdomain.com"? Not the specific URL?

Since you are using the Google Search Console, unless you are not the domain name owner, I recommend doing so directly. Because you can see the overall data most intuitively, rather than a specific subdomain.

Why don't I need verification?

Because I have been verified. I use blogger, which has passed the verification when customizing the domain name.

How can I be verified by the Google Search Console?

Generally, you should go to your domain name provider to set up DNS. For example, I use the Cloudflare service. I need to add a TXT record in DNS, and the content of this record is the unique verification code provided by Google.

You may be asked to do it. Google will tell you how to operate.

Once you complete this, you will be unimpeded in all Google services. (I think Google Analytics should be the same)

What functions do I need in the Google Search Console?

In fact, as a beginner, you need just one function, just one.

"Inspect any URL in 'yourdomain.com'" on the top of your console page.

It's the BEST way to check whether your specific page has been included by Google Search Engine. If not, you can enter it manually to tell Google Search Engine to include your page.

And this may be the only function you can use that works for you. Other data and details can be viewed in Google Analytics.
