Google Search Console, often shortened to GSC, is a free tool provided by Google. It allows website owners to verify if Google has indexed their site, see what search terms people use to find them, and receive notifications about indexing issues.
Not registering doesn't mean Google absolutely won't find your site, but after connecting, you'll have a clearer understanding of your site's indexing status, and Kanorio can assist with verification and Sitemap submission.
After authorizing, Kanorio will automatically handle available verification steps, add your site as a resource, and submit your Sitemap. When you publish content changes in the future, the system will also resubmit the Sitemap at appropriate times.
If your website's domain changes, or if Google requires re-verification, the console will display a prompt. Follow the prompt to reconnect or re-verify; do not assume the old connection will remain valid indefinitely.
If the one-click connection isn't possible, you can obtain an HTML verification tag from Google Search Console and paste it into the advanced manual verification section within the "Technical SEO" settings.
Paste only the verification content provided by Google, not the entire webpage code or any third-party scripts. After saving, publish your website from the "Publish" section, then return to Google Search Console to complete the verification.
A Sitemap is a list of pages for search engines to read. Kanorio automatically generates a Sitemap for your published website, typically at:
yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml
Replace yourdomain.com with your actual website URL. Kanorio will help submit it during the one-click connection. If you're using manual verification, you can add it yourself in the Sitemap section of GSC.
Submitting a Sitemap is an invitation for Google to re-crawl your site; it's not a request to rank all your pages at the top of search results immediately.
In Google Search Console, you can typically view:
GSC data is collected and processed by Google and usually has a delay. View it in terms of trends, rather than expecting real-time display of today's complete search performance.
No. Connecting, verifying, and submitting a Sitemap makes it easier for Google to discover your site, but indexing and ranking are ultimately determined by Google and typically take several days to weeks.
Google must be able to read your published website to verify and index it. Please complete the publishing process and ensure the URL is accessible before connecting.
Yes. You can disconnect or reconnect within the GSC settings in "Technical SEO". Follow the on-screen prompts to select the Google account you wish to authorize. Ensure the new account also has a need to manage this website.
