Enhancing property sets to cover more reports in Search Console

Since initially
announcing property sets
earlier this year, one of the most popular requests has been to expand this functionality to more
sections of Search Console. Thanks to your feedback, we're now expanding property sets to more
features!
Property sets
help to show how your business is seen by Google across separate websites or apps. For example, if
you have multiple international or brand-specific websites, and perhaps even an Android app, it
can be useful to see changes of the whole set over time: are things headed in the expected
direction? are there any outliers that you'd want to drill down into? Similarly, you could monitor
your site's hreflang setup across different versions of the same website during a planned
transition, such as when you
move from HTTP to HTTPS, or
change domains.
We hope these changes make it easier to understand your properties in Search Console. Should you
have any questions—or if you just want to help others, you can drop by our
Webmaster Help Forums.
