Common Issues
Quick fixes for the most common problems.
"GSC Disconnected" or "GA4 Disconnected"
Google tokens expire periodically. This is normal.
Fix: Click the "Connect GSC" or "Connect GA4" button again to re-authorize. Your data will be available immediately after reconnecting.
"No properties found" after connecting
This usually means you don't have any verified sites in Google Search Console, or you signed in with a different Google account than the one that owns your GSC properties.
Fix: Make sure you're signing in with the Google account that has access to your website's GSC property. Check search.google.com/search-console to verify your sites are set up.
Report shows "No data available"
New websites or sites with very low traffic may not have enough data in GSC/GA4 yet.
Fix: Google Search Console needs a few weeks to collect meaningful data. If your site is new, check back after it's been indexed for 2-4 weeks.
Page Audit says "couldn't access content"
Some websites use firewalls or bot protection that blocks our page fetcher.
Fix: You can still get the audit by copying and pasting your page content directly into the chat. The AI will analyze whatever you provide.
If you'd like to enable page access, see our firewall guide for step-by-step instructions.
Chat response cut off or incomplete
Occasionally, long responses may be truncated due to API limits.
Fix: Ask a follow-up question like "Can you continue?" or "What else should I know?" to get more details.
Reports Guide

AI Chat Tips
The AI has access to your GSC and GA4 data. Ask it anything about your site's search performance.
Questions You Can Ask
- "Why did my traffic drop last month?"
- "Which pages should I focus on improving?"
- "What keywords am I close to ranking for?"
- "How is my /pricing page performing?"
- "Compare this month to last month"
What the AI Can't Do
- Make changes to your website (it can only analyze and recommend)
- Access competitor data (it only sees your GSC/GA4 data)
- Predict exact ranking changes (SEO involves many variables)
- Help with non-SEO topics (it's focused on your site's search performance)
