Is Google Analytics the same thing as Google Search Console Insights?


No, Google Analytics and Google Search Console Insights are two different tools that provide different insights into your website traffic.

  • Google Analytics: Google Analytics is a web analytics tool that tracks website traffic and provides insights into how users interact with your website. It can help you understand where your traffic is coming from, what pages are most popular, and how long users are spending on your website.
  • Google Search Console Insights: Google Search Console Insights is a tool that provides insights into how your website performs in Google Search. It can show you how many people are searching for your website, what keywords they are using, and how your website ranks for those keywords.
