Update Google Search Console

Google reports that the transition of Search Console properties to the new item categorization is now complete.

Google completes the transition of all Search Console properties to the new, more straightforward classification scheme.

 

Today, a tweet stating that the migration was finished was posted on Twitter:

 

Google started this initiative two months ago to assist Search Console users in concentrating more on important concerns.

 

Google Search Console no longer organizes URLs or objects at the top level by three or more status categories in order to achieve that aim.

 

Prior to this, Search Console reported categorized URLs with labels such as Valid, Warning, and Error.

 

Items that have been reported to Search Console are categorized into two statuses to show whether they are valid or invalid.

 

Valid denotes the absence of any important concerns particular to the report, whereas invalid denotes the existence of crucial issues (but may still contain warnings).

 

By report type, different consequences for the new valid and incorrect IDs apply. Google explains what this implies for each impacted report.

 

Updates To Google Search Console Reports – What’s changing?

Individual concerns are still classified by Search Console as error, warning, or good. What has changed is that instead of a written label, these groupings are now denoted by color and iconography.

 

The following adjustments are being made to certain Search Console reports:


Coverage (Page indexing): The Indexed status includes the Valid and Valid with warning pages.


Error and Excluded problems have been categorized as not indexed.


Core Web Vitals: The report now divides pages into two tables: one for Good pages and one for Poor/Need improvement pages.


Mobile Usability: No longer usable and useable are the categories.


AMP report: The major issues that are affecting AMP pages are shown in the first table, while the non-critical issues are shown in the second table.


Rich result reports: Rich outcomes that are impacted by significant issues are shown in the first table, whereas non-critical issues are shown in the second.

 

URL Inspection: The top-level verdict for a URL will be one of the following three categories:


  • URL is on Google
  • URL is on Google but has issues
  • URL is not on Google

 

To be clear, Google Search Console isn't changing the data in reports in any way. Only the classification of problems is impacted by this modification.

 

You have access to all the data that was available prior to the release of this update.
