Google Search Console Integration
Connect GSC to sync actual clicks, impressions, CTR, and average position to GoSEO for keyword research and performance tracking.
Feature Analysis
Google Search Console is GoSEO's core data source for assessing real search performance. After connecting, keyword opportunities, rank monitoring, content update prioritization, and CTR assessments shift from estimates to being based on real query data.
Detailed Steps
When connecting, use the Google account that has GSC permissions for the site, and prioritize selecting the Domain property. After the initial sync, check that keyword and page data are complete.

Prefer choosing a Domain property, e.g., sc-domain:example.com, because it aggregates subdomain and protocol data.
Sync Frequency
GoSEO syncs GSC data once every 24 hours. Because GSC itself typically has a 2- to 3-day delay, the most recent data will not be fully real-time.
