Google Search Console glitches reported!

Has anyone else noticed some glitches within the Google Search Console since they did some changes earlier this week?

One of my websites is showing ZERO traffic searches for the last month, yet when I check on Google Analytics it shows organic traffic!

Then that same website is showing ZERO backlinks.

I have to admit I panicked a little bit when I saw that today, thankfully before I freaked out too much I realized something must be wrong and did a quick search.

There have been a few people reporting that there are some glitches. What a relief!

Have you noticed any glitches with Google Search Console this week?

I hadn't noticed any type of glitch in the google search console mainly because I haven't been on there much in the last few weeks lol. I've been too busy working on new ventures and websites. It's a good reason I haven't been on there, but I wish I had all the time in the day to do whatever I wanted lol.

What exactly what happening? Was it just that you didn't see any backlinks and your search volumes were showing 0 searches per month? I would be freaking out a bit too if I saw this lol. I would think my website had been blacklisted in the SERPs and I had to basically start over in the same niche

Did you know it was just a glitch with the Google search console when you saw other people reporting the same thing? Or did you do some research while freaking out a bit? I probably would have just been freaking out the whole time and not thought of checking for other reports of it not working

Oh man, imagine if those few people (yourself included) were reporting a glitch but it in reality it was just those people who were getting blacklisted

That would be devastating

I would definitely go sit in a corner and cry a bit if some of my bigger websites got blacklisted

Yes Razzy that is exactly what I thought for a few minutes, my blood ran cold. That was for my mommy blog that I have had for nearly 5 years. My first website, my little baby.

But then I checked on Google Analytics and it is showing organic searches. Then I did a quick Google search about my issue and it seems other people have been experiencing the same thing.

I have checked Google Search Console and they have not given me any notification of any problems so that combined with the fact organic searches are showing in Google Analytics I am going to have faith that there is not problem with my website!

Search Console always has glitches and it takes some time to update. And what kind of traffic from Search Console are you talking about? The Search Analytics section? That's a hugely unreliable way to figure out your traffic.

Although Search Console has its glitches as well as it shot comings, I still consider it one of the best tools out there Google can offer Webmasters.
