Overall Satisfaction with Google Search Console

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Google Search Console is being used by our Marketing and Technology apartment to understand how customers find us organically on Google (search engine) and more importantly, what they don't find us by searching. For high ranking content, we can also find what articles are suggested by Google and how much traffic that brings us.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Search Engine Terms Visualization
Ability to sort based on times/pages

Cons

Difficult to understand HOW to make improvements
Lack of suggestion for rating terms you want to rank for but don't

Return on Investment

Understanding customers intent
Understanding customers questions

Alternatives Considered

Semrush

Semrush costs money to obtain the full range of data that Google Search Engine doesn't supply. Start with GSC and then move to Semrush, is my opinion.

Likelihood to Recommend

Google Search Console is helpful to understand what terms customers search for and click onto your website from. However, it's not helpful if you're looking for deep competitive insight on search terms people are using and how that impacts your website.
