Google (Search Console and GA4)
Connect Search Console and Google Analytics 4 in one step, choose your properties and see where the data appears. Professional and up.
The Google card connects Google Search Console and Google Analytics 4 to your project in one step. You then see your Google clicks, impressions and positions, and your visitors, sessions and conversions, inside Rankfender. Professional and up
What it adds
| Where | What you get |
|---|---|
| Traffic | The Search, Visitors and Health tabs use your Search Console and GA4 data. |
| Home | Your Google clicks, impressions and positions next to Rankfender's own search data. |
| Assistant | It can read your Search Console and GA4 figures when you ask. |
Rankfender's own search data (keywords in the top 100, estimated visits) works without Google. Google adds your real clicks and visitors. See Traffic overview.
Connect Google
Click "Connect" on the Google card
The dialog "Connect Your Google Account" lists "Search Console — rankings, clicks, impressions" and "Analytics 4 — sessions, engagement, conversions".
Click "Connect with Google"
"You'll be redirected to Google to authorize access." Sign in with a Google account that has access to your site in Search Console and Analytics.
Allow access
Google lists what Rankfender asks for: your Search Console data, sending pages to Google for indexing, and read-only access to Analytics.
Pick your properties
Back in Rankfender, choose a "Search Console Property" (a domain property or a URL prefix property) and a "Google Analytics 4 Property", then click "Connect Selected Properties".
"Google properties saved!" confirms it. The card then shows "Connected". "Configure" and "View Integration" open the same dialog: each property, or "Not configured", and "Connected N days ago".
Disconnect
Click "Disconnect Google". The dialog warns: "This will disconnect Search Console AND Analytics. You'll lose access to all Google data." Confirm with "Yes, Disconnect".
Note
The card is available on Professional, Business and Agencies. On Essential and Pay as you go it is locked. Refreshing your Google data uses 9 credits. The card and its dialog are in English in every language.
Tip
No property in the list? The Google account you used has no access to your site. Add it as a user in Search Console and Analytics, or connect again with the right account.
