Want to make an SEO analyst happy? Give them more data to play with.

Google’s bringing the smiles by adding two new updates to the Search Console Video Indexing Report.

First, let’s see those impressions

Video impressions overlay: You can now see the number of daily video impressions and keep track of your video performance over time.

These impressions are grouped by page, meaning that if the same page appears more times in the results page, it will still count as only one impression.

Then, let’s filter the sitemaps

Sitemap filter: This feature helps you focus on essential video pages, filtering the Report to show only video pages present on a selected sitemap.

The filter applies to all elements of the indexing report, including the chart, chart totals, issue lists, and exports.

Why we care

Seems you just got more data to work with, which should help you better understand your videos’ performance on the results page.

And since videos are always near the top, it would be smart to optimize them with care.
