In today's world there are very few people who do not know Google or Google search engine. Especially those who are involved in online blogging consider Google as their guru. Because bloggers keep trying to get enough visitors from Google. If a blogger is able to collect traffic from Google search engine then no one can stop the success of his blog.
Moreover, an online content writer considers himself successful only when he is able to get visitors to his blog from the Google search engine. No matter how much traffic you get from other mediums including Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, it will never be equal to the importance of traffic from search engines. Especially nowadays the traffic from Google search engine is very important.
In order to get visitors from Google search engine, first you have to submit your blog or website to Google Search Console (formerly Google Webmaster Tools). About three years ago we shared a post on our blog about how to submit a blog to Google search engine.
At that time, everyone knew it as Google Search Console. Google recently changed its link to Google Search Console. Google has made a number of changes, additions and subtractions, including changes to the name and link of the tool and its graphics. Moreover, in the last three years, Google has made a lot of changes in this tool, so many people are having problems submitting the site to Google search engine from our previous post.
That's why we decided to share a new post on this topic without editing the previous one, so that everyone can easily submit their blog to Google search engine.
What is Google Search Console and why use it?
Google Search Console is a free service of Google company, through which you can monitor and maintain your blog. You do not need to sign up anywhere to get your blog included in the Google search engine. However, to check if every page of the blog is included in the search results of Google search engine and whether Google Robot is indexing the posts of your blog in time, you must sign up in Google Search Console.
In each of the above places I have written Google Search Console instead of Google Webmaster Tools. You may be wondering why I use the word Google Search Console? Because Google is no longer keeping their search sections separate, but now all of them together as Google Search Console. Google Webmaster Tools is now replaced by Google Search Console.
Many may think that if Google automatically brings any blog or website in their search results without submitting it to the search engine then what is the need for it? In fact, the job of Google Search Console is not only to bring content to search results, there is much more to it. Here is a brief summary of why you need it.
Why use Google Search Console?
- To quickly index new blog content.
- To index the content by country or language.
- To give Google robots an idea about the subject matter of the blog.
- To submit new content and remove old content.
- To monitor all the content of the blog.
- To find out if Google Robot is indexing the content of your blog.
- To properly maintain your blog.
- To keep the blog clean by monitoring malware or spam.
- To give Google an idea about the quality of your blog content.
- To find out if your site is mobile friendly.
- What kind of keywords are visitors coming to your site?
- Is Google bot working properly on your site?
In addition to the above benefits, you can enjoy many more benefits for free from Google Search Console. No matter how hard a professional blogger tries, he will not be able to reach the brink of success without submitting the site to Google search engine or get enough visitors to his blog. There is no substitute for submitting a site to Google Search Console to get enough visitors to your blog.
Why submit a blog to Google Search Console?
As technology has improved over time, so has the competition to stay on the field with technology. The number of websites that were online three years ago has now increased tenfold. Many web developers have been forced to shut down websites or blogs because of the lack of traffic from the Google search engine. For this reason, all the methods of search engine optimization have to be adopted in order to prove oneself as successful in the competition to stay online.
Usually when a businessman starts a new business, he introduces his business to the customers through various advertisements and promotions. In the same way, in the case of a website or blog, you have to submit the site to Google Search Console in order to introduce it to Google search engine. Google Search Console is one of Google's own tools.
By submitting any blog to this tool, Google can easily get ideas about all the posts and content of that blog. When Google gets an idea about a blog, it understands the importance of the blog article and will show it consistently in the search results according to the algorithm. So you understand how important it is to submit a blog to Google Search Call.
