WHAT IS GOOGLE SEARCH CONSOLE?
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row color_scheme=”custom” us_bg_color=”#f4f4f4″][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Google Search Console – formerly known as Google Webmaster Tools – is a VITAL tool that all business owners and digital marketers should know and have. It’s a web service provided by Google that offers a wealth of tools and resources that allow you to monitor your site performance. It is also the only way that Google will ever share information about manual actions taken against your site and offer its suggestions for improvement. Being actively connected to and making daily use of the Search Console is one of the most important things any website owner should do.
And the best part is, Google Search Console is FREE.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][us_single_image image=”6805″ size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]

GSC verification methods

- HTML tag: Add a <meta> tag to the <HEAD> section of a specific page’s HTML code.
- Google Analytics tracking code: Copy the GA tracking code that you use on your site. (You need “edit” permission in GA for this option.)
- Google Tag Manager container snippet code: Copy the GTM container snippet code associated with your site. (You need View, Edit, and Manage container-level permissions in GTM for this option.)
