Adding your site to Google Search Console

As soon as you set up your Newsy site, we recommend that you add your site to Google Search Console (previously known as Google Webmaster Tool). It will help your site to be indexed by Google search engine and also track how your site performs from search engine perspective (e.g. SEO).

When you first add your site, you will need to verify that you own the domain. We recommend that you verify via DNS checking method (similar to setting up CNAME for your Newsy site) showin in the image below.

Once verified, we also recommend you to submit your Sitemap, which helps Google to find your contents. (you can do this by clicking on the Sitemap menu item in Google Search Console). Your site's Sitemap is automatically generated and available by Newsy in the Analytics section shown below.

Once you set up Google Search Console, there isn't anything else to do. You probably want to check it periodically to see how your site is performing from Google's perspectives. Google Search Console will also email you with any recommendations on improving your site's visibility.
