How Do I Add Google Search Console to Wix?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 9:49 am

Google Search Console is a free service offered by Google that helps you monitor, maintain, and troubleshoot your site’s presence in Google Search results. You can use Search Console to submit and test your sitemap, robots.txt file, and to check for malware or other errors that could be keeping your site from appearing in search results.

To add Google Search Console to your Wix site, you’ll need to first create a Google account (if you don’t have one already). Once you have a Google account, you can then sign up for Search Console here. After you’ve signed up and logged in, you’ll need to add your site to Search Console. You can do this by clicking the “Add a Property” button and then entering your site’s URL.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to add Google Search Console to your Wix website, be aware that there are some potential risks.

First, by adding Google Search Console to your Wix site, you are giving Google access to your site’s data. This means that Google could potentially use this data for its own purposes, or even sell it to third parties.

Second, adding Google Search Console to your Wix site could also give Google more control over your site’s ranking in search results. If you are not careful about how you configure Search Console, you could end up harming your site’s visibility in search engines.

Therefore, before you add Google Search Console to your Wix site, be sure to understand the risks and take steps to mitigate them.

Once your site has been added, you’ll need to verify that you own it. This is done by either uploading an HTML file to your server or adding a DNS record. Once you’ve verified ownership, you’ll be able to access the various features of Search Console. These features include the ability to see how often your site appears in Google search results, which keywords people are using to find your site, and whether there are any errors that are preventing your site from being indexed properly.

Adding Google Search Console to your Wix site is a good way to make sure that your site is appearing in search results and that there are no errors that are preventing it from being indexed properly. By using the various features of Search Console, you can improve your site’s visibility in Google search results and troubleshoot any issues that may be keeping it from being indexed properly.

Adding Google Search Console to your Wix site is a good way to make sure that your site is appearing in search results and that there are no errors that are preventing it from being indexed properly.
