SEO Keyword Reports in WordPress from Search Console Data
Keyword reporting in WordPress: where to find SEO keyword reports, declining terms, top performers, and CTR gaps inside SEO Booster after GSC import.
Quick answer: SEO keyword reports in WordPress come from Google Search Console data imported into SEO Booster. There is no one admin screen named Keyword Report. Use GSC Overview for the searchable table, the dashboard for trends, the edit-screen metabox per URL, the weekly email for digests, and Keyword Insights to map each insight type to the right screen.
If you searched for keyword reporting, seo keyword report, or keyword report, you likely want a list of queries and what to do with them. This guide is that map for SEO Booster.
What is an SEO keyword report?
A keyword report answers: which queries send traffic, which pages they land on, and whether performance is improving or slipping. Rank trackers guess positions across the web. Search Console keyword reporting uses data Google already associates with your property.
SEO Booster spreads those insights across WordPress admin views so you fix pages where you edit, not in a spreadsheet export.
