  1. In browser results your data box shows: Avg. Position
    28.6
    In insights: Avg. position: 35.6

    Neither is accurate when I look it in the real world, seems a bit over-optimistic by several spots.

  2. nice to meet.
    This is Park Joong-ho working for a news newspaper.
    I have one question.
    Since last month, AMP has been applied to our company's site.
    According to the Google Search Console, our site has 200,000 article pages indexed.
    Then, when you applied the AMP page from the last step
    How do you AMP INDEXING of the last 200,000 articles?
    If there is a way, please tell me..
    Thank you very much for your YouTube content.

  3. Keeping up to date with the latest technological advances is imperative in today’s market, and with the rise of mobile devices and local search optimisation, a whole new range of effective SEO techniques have opened up that could greatly benefit consumer targeting, engagement and online visibility. Keeping updated with search console is important for helping our SEO strategy.

  4. "If you're getting a smaller amount of impressions then you think you should for a query, this shows your site isn't being shown as much." What is the Google recommended way for finding out the number of impressions you could potentially have if the site did better in search results?

  5. Let's say I don't put any keyword intentionally. I mean key stuffing. I just write on a topic on my blog and tried to share actual information. Then how it's gonna rank for the keyword that isn't in the article but is relevant to that topic?

    Does google bot can identify that?
