    Site Kit for WordPress

    Site Kit for WordPress

    Site Kit is a one-stop solution for WordPress users

    Site Kit is a first-party WordPress plugin that brings key Google services into a single dashboard so site owners can see how their content performs and fix issues without leaving wp-admin. After a guided setup and verification flow, it connects properties to Search Console, Analytics, AdSense, PageSpeed Insights, and other services, surfacing the most relevant metrics per page and per site. The plugin focuses on clarity: traffic sources, search queries, top pages, and monetization signals appear alongside actionable performance recommendations. It also handles authentication and permission scopes securely, so multiple collaborators can access insights without sharing credentials. Widgets and contextual panels put data where it’s needed—for example, on the post list or edit screen—reducing tab-switching. For developers and agencies, Site Kit simplifies client onboarding and standardizes reporting across many sites.
