Research tells you what is possible. Your own Google data tells you what is actually happening. Link Google Search Console (how people find you in Google) and Google Analytics 4 (what they do on your site) to a project, and they appear right in DataFlowSEO.

    Choose GSC & GA4 under Integrations in the sidebar. The Google Integrations page has one card for Google Search Console and one for Google Analytics.

  3. Pick a property

    Choose the Search Console site or GA4 property that matches this project, then click Add property. Repeat to link more than one.

  4. Open your insights

    GSC Insights and GA4 Insights now appear under GSC & GA4 in the sidebar.
