Google Announce Domain-wide data in Search Console – Come4seo

What is Google Search Console?

I have earlier share some post relates to Search console, again I am sharing some latest information about search console. So small introduction about search console is


“Google Search Console (formerly Google Webmaster Tools) is a free web-basedSEO tool for webmasters to track both the indexing and crawling stats from Googlebot while also providing metrics to help optimize a website for organic visibility”

What is Domain wide data and why need to aggregate it?

We know better in last couple of years Google search console recommend to verify all variation of domain for example:-

https://gyan-badhao.com

http://www.gyan-badhao.com

gyan-badhao.com

www.gyanbadhao.com etc

In this scenario we are unable to analysis data for all variation on a single platform. We should visit all variation than manually collect data and then analysis it.

To overcome this problem Google search console announce the Domain-wide data. If you website already verified with Search Console than also you need to again verify it with DNS.
