Hey there! Tired of menu-diving in Google Search Console to find what matters? What if you could just ask for the data you need? Google is rolling out a smart new AI assistant inside Search Console. I tested the beta, and here’s your short, simple guide to using it.
Step 1: Find The New AI Feature
First, log into your Google Search Console. Go to the main “Performance” report. Look carefully for a new, flashy option labeled something like “Customize your performance report using AI.” It might be a button or a prompt box.
Don’t see it? It’s a gradual beta rollout. No worries. Save these steps so you’re ready when it appears for you.
What If It’s Not There Yet?
If the AI button isn’t visible, focus on mastering the standard filters. This prep will make you an even faster power user once the AI arrives.
Step 2: Use These 3 Simple Prompts
When you see it, click and type a clear question. Start with these three powerful prompts:
“Show me my top queries with the highest click-through rate.”
This instantly tells you which search terms make people actually click. Create more content around these winners.
“Compare my mobile vs. desktop traffic from last month.”
This shows where your audience lives. More mobile? Speed up that site. Desktop strong? Perfect that experience.
“Which countries give me the most traffic?”
Discover your geographic goldmine. High impressions but low clicks from a country? A sign to better tailor your content there.
Why These Prompts Work
They cut straight to insights that influence real decisions—what to write, who to write for, and how to design your site.
Step 3: Take Action on Your Data
Click “Apply” to see the AI’s custom report. Your job isn’t done yet. This is where your insight turns into action.
- High CTR, Low Ranking? Expand that popular topic.
- Mobile Traffic Underperforming? Check your page speed and mobile design.
- Surprise Country in Top 3? Consider adding local references or translations.
The Key is The “Now What?”
The AI gives you the “what.” You provide the “why” and the “now what.” It’s a tool to fuel your creativity and strategy.
New to Search Console? Get Setup.
To use this, your site must be verified in Google Search Console. It’s free and fast.
Here’s how to verify your site:
- Visit search.google.com/search-console.
- Click “Add Property.”
- Choose the “URL prefix” option and enter your website URL.
- Verify ownership. For WordPress, use a plugin like “Header Footer Code Manager” to add the meta tag. For Shopify, edit your
theme.liquidfile and paste the tag into the<head>section.
Your Data, Your Advantage
Once verified, Google will start collecting your search data. In a few days, you’ll have insights to explore—with or without the new AI.
Final Thought: This AI is about working smarter, not harder. It handles the complex filtering so you can focus on growth. Stay curious, ask good questions, and let your data tell its story.
Now, go check your Search Console. Your future of simpler SEO might already be there.
