HEY! IT’S DEEPAK SHUKLA HERE.
And I’ve been working with Google Search Console for the past 10 years now. Over that time, I’ve created processes that have done wonders for my clients and their businesses. From URL inspection to indexing, let me optimize your Search Console!
WHAT IS GOOGLE SEARCH CONSOLE?
Google Search Console – formerly known as Google Webmaster Tools – is a VITAL tool that all business owners and digital marketers should know and have. It’s a web service provided by Google that offers a wealth of tools and resources that allow you to monitor your site performance. It is also the only way that Google will ever share information about manual actions taken against your site and offer its suggestions for improvement. Being actively connected to and making daily use of the Search Console is one of the most important things any website owner should do.
And the best part is, Google Search Console is FREE.

MY JOB IS TO ENSURE THAT YOUR WEBSITE ACHIEVES HIGH VISIBILITY AND SERPS RANKINGS.
How do I do this? There are a lot of things I keep top of mind when working on your Google Search Console campaign. These are just a few of them.
Sitemap Management: A good sitemap is essential if you want search bots to crawl and index your site correctly. I will ensure that your site has an efficient XML Sitemap generator in place and that it makes regular submissions to help get new content noticed.
Keyword Research: Together we’ll go over your current keyword strategy and, with the help of the data in the Google Search Console and my expertise, ensure it’s the best it could possibly be.
Ensure Mobile Compatibility: Google’s SERPs results are now ‘mobile first’, so a site has to be mobile friendly or risk becoming almost invisible in the SERPs. I’ll help you take the advice offered in the Google Console for your site and implement it the right way.
Understand and Implement New Search Friendly Features: Google is trying to ‘build a better Internet’, and they have an ever increasing number of things they want to see from a site in order for it to rank well. I’ll help you understand the suggestions Google is making for your site and then help you implement them.
