Technical SEO FAQ · Enterprise Technical SEO, Migrations, Measurement & Leadership
How do you use Google Search Console as a technical SEO diagnostic system?
Treat Search Console as one layer of evidence.
Important reports include:
- Page Indexing;
- Crawl Stats;
- URL Inspection;
- Sitemaps;
- Core Web Vitals;
- HTTPS;
- enhancements where applicable;
- Search performance.
Do not interpret one report in isolation.
For example, a URL in Page Indexing may need to be cross-checked against its canonical and crawlability.
