Google Search Console Support is considered On-Page SEO service and is billed at $75/USD per hour. In this article, we will explore how Google Search Console plays a crucial role in enhancing your website's visibility, and why it is considered a billable service unless a hosting error is at play.

1. What is Google Search Console?

   Google Search Console, formerly known as Google Webmaster Tools, is a free online tool provided by Google. It enables website owners and administrators to monitor and optimize their website's presence in the search results. It offers valuable insights into how Google views and interprets your website, allowing you to identify and resolve any issues that might affect your search engine rankings.

2. How does Google Search Console aid in on-page SEO?

   Google Search Console offers a range of features that help improve your on-page SEO efforts. Let's explore some of the key functionalities:

a) Indexing and Crawling: Search Console provides information on how Google's search bots crawl and index your website. It allows you to submit your sitemap, identify crawl errors, and ensure that your web pages are being indexed properly.

b) Search Performance Analysis: You can analyze your website's search performance using metrics like impressions, clicks, and average position in the search results. This data helps you gauge the effectiveness of your SEO efforts and make informed decisions to improve your website's visibility.

c) Keyword Insights: Search Console provides data on the keywords that drive traffic to your website. This information helps you understand which keywords are performing well and identify opportunities for optimization.

d) HTML Improvements: It highlights HTML issues such as duplicate meta descriptions, missing title tags, and non-indexable content. Fixing these issues ensures that your web pages are properly optimized for search engines.

e) Mobile Usability: With the growing importance of mobile-friendly websites, Search Console offers a mobile usability report. It helps you identify any mobile-related issues that may hinder your website's performance in mobile search results.

3. Billing for Google Search Console under On-Page SEO services: As a WordPress Hosting and Maintenance company, we consider Google Search Console an integral part of our on-page SEO services. It provides invaluable insights and data that enable us to optimize your website for better search engine rankings. However, it is important to note that billing for Search Console services is typically included under on-page SEO unless a hosting error is causing the issues.

If our team identifies an issue within the hosting infrastructure that directly affects the functionality of Google Search Console or impedes its proper usage, such as server misconfiguration or hosting downtime, we consider it a hosting error. In such cases, we will address the hosting error separately, and the related support and rectification will be covered under our hosting services.

We highly recommend our clients implement Google Search Console in their WordPress website, as it's a powerful tool that assists in on-page SEO optimization, providing invaluable insights and data to enhance your website's visibility in search results. It is worth noting that although we are not SEO experts, we often understand the issues behind the Search Console errors, and can provide our services to fix them, but billing for Search Console services is included under our hourly services at $75USD/hour unless a hosting error is at play, which would be addressed separately.

By leveraging the power of Google Search Console, we strive to boost your website's performance and ensure optimal search engine rankings.
