SEO Intelligence

Every month, SEO Intelligence reads your Google Search Console data, works out what changed, and tells you in plain English what to fix first. No jargon, and every number can be traced back to the data it came from.

Overview

Search Console already knows how people find you on Google. What it does not do is tell you what to do about it. This service does that part:

The findings are worked out by fixed rules, not guessed at. Run the same month twice and you get the same answer, with the same numbers behind it.

Connect your Google account

Go to SEO Intelligence → Settings and choose Connect Google. You will be asked to allow read-only access to your Search Console data, and nothing else.

Leave every permission ticked on the Google screen. If the Search Console permission is unticked, the connection is refused and you will be asked to try again, because without it there is nothing to read.

You can connect several Google accounts. That is useful when different websites sit under different accounts.

If a connection later stops working, it shows as Needs reconnecting with the reason, and a Reconnect button beside it. Nothing else in your workspace is affected.

Add a website

On SEO Intelligence → Websites, choose Add a website. Pick the Google account, then pick the website from the list. The list comes straight from Search Console, so it only ever shows properties that account can actually open.

You do not type the address yourself. It comes from the property you chose, so the two can never disagree. A website you already track is shown in the list but cannot be picked twice.

Your first 16 months

Adding a website starts an import of the last 16 months, which is as far back as Google keeps this data. It runs in the background and takes a few minutes.

This matters more than it sounds. Several kinds of advice, such as spotting a page that has been quietly losing traffic, need several months of history before they can say anything at all. With only one month loaded, the first report will look thin.

A young website will import fewer months, because Search Console has nothing earlier to give. That is normal and not an error.

The monthly analysis

Open a website and choose Run analysis. It reads the month, compares it against the month before, and produces two lists:

Search Console data settles for about three days after each day ends, so a month can only be analysed once it has finished and had a few days to settle.

What to do next

Each recommendation carries two things worth reading before anything else:

Together those tell you what to do on a Tuesday afternoon and what to plan properly. The list is already ordered so the best use of your time is at the top.

You can Accept anything you agree with or Dismiss anything that does not apply to you. Dismissing keeps the record but drops it out of the way.

The kinds of advice

What you will seeWhat it means
Rewrite the title and descriptionYou already rank well for this page, but people are not clicking. The ranking is fine, so the wording people see in Google is the problem.
Push this onto page oneThis is close to the first page. A modest improvement is likely to get it there.
Refresh this pageIt has been losing traffic steadily for months. The content has gone stale rather than broken.
Decide which page should own this searchSeveral of your pages compete for the same search and split the attention between them.
Build on what is workingSomething here improved. Worth understanding why, then doing the same elsewhere.
Investigate the dropSomething fell further than normal month-to-month movement explains.
Pages nobody optimises for search, such as your privacy policy or terms, are left out on purpose. So are searches for your own company name, where several of your pages showing up is perfectly normal.

Turning advice into work

Any recommendation can become a real piece of work. Choose Create a task on the card, or tick several and create them together.

The request goes to AI Review first, where somebody approves it. Once approved, the tasks appear in Tasks and can be given to whoever does the work. Nothing is created behind your back.

A recommendation that already has a task waiting shows as Awaiting approval and cannot be sent twice, so clicking again by mistake costs nothing.

Sharing the report

Choose Publish report to turn the month into a written summary. It goes through AI Review in the same way, and once approved it is saved to your Knowledge Hub, where anyone with access can read it and the chatbot can answer questions from it.

Why the keyword numbers look small

You will usually see far fewer keywords than pages. That is Google, not a limit here.

Google hides the search wording when too few people searched it, to protect their privacy. You still get the page and the visit; you simply do not get told what was typed. On a smaller website this hides most searches, because each individual one is rare.

Your page numbers are complete. If a website is ever large enough that some very low-traffic rows had to be left out, the report says so on the page rather than quietly rounding down.

How many websites you can track

Your plan sets how many websites you can track at once. Removing one frees the slot immediately. Connecting more Google accounts does not change the number.

See Billing and plans for what your plan includes.
