Tie your sites together with property sets in Search Console

Mobile app, mobile website, desktop website—how do you track their combined visibility in
search? Until now, you've had to track all of these statistics separately.
Search Console
is introducing the concept of
"property sets,"
which let you combine multiple properties (both apps and sites) into a single group to monitor the
overall clicks and impressions in Search within a single report.
It's easy to get started:
Create a property set
Add the properties you're interested in
The data will start being collected within a few days
Profit from the new insights in Search Analytics!
Property Sets will treat all URIs from the properties included as a single presence in the Search
Analytics feature. This means that
Search Analytics metrics aggregated by host
will be aggregated across all properties included in the set. For example, at a glance you'll get
the clicks and impressions of any of the sites in the set for all queries.
This feature will work for any kind of property in Search Console. Use it to gain an overview of
your international websites, of mixed HTTP / HTTPS sites, of different departments or brands that
run separate websites, or monitor the Search Analytics of all your apps together: all of that's
possible with this feature.
Don't just listen to us, here's what we heard from one of the beta-testers:
It was one of my most important demands since the beginning of Webmaster Tools / Search Console.
And I love the way it is given to us. I see that the remarks of beta-testers have also been
understood by Google engineers. So thank you so much! —

We'll be rolling this out over the next couple of days. If you have multiple properties verified
in Search Console, we hope this feature makes it easier for you to keep track. If you have any
questions, feedback, or ideas, please come and visit us in the webmaster help forum, or read
the help documentation for this new feature!
