Search Console Setup & Audit
Budget: $30 – $250 CAD
I’m looking for help finishing the technical housekeeping after a full site rebuild. The Google Search Console property has to be set up from scratch, verified, and tuned so that Google can crawl the new structure without missing a beat.
What I need you to handle:
• Create and verify the new property in Google Search Console.
• Submit the sitemap I have already generated and make sure it is accepted without errors.
• Review the existing 301 redirects that point from the old URL structure to the new one, confirming that nothing is looping or throwing a 404.
• Check for crawl-ability or indexing warnings and fix anything that would keep a page out of Google’s index.
• Compare the old and new URL inventories so we can be certain no important pages were lost during the rebuild.
Tools such as Search Console’s Coverage and URL Inspection reports, Screaming Frog, or a similar crawler are fine—as long as the end result is a clean index and accurate redirects.
Deliverable: a short report (spreadsheet or doc) summarising the actions you took, the issues you found, and the final status of sitemap submission, redirects, and index coverage.
