As mentioned, here is the other video: UPDATE:
In some cases, you may see a link called 'Performance' and not 'Search Results' on the left - this is from your site being new in search console. It is the same thing and will work either way.

Hey there. I don't have anything under the Performance tab.

Thats because you dont have enough data collected in your Google Search Console.

Watch the video again and try Jay's idea same time in 2025/26

You should have enough data then in you GSC

The method is still working, it's just my left column in the console is less detailed.

I wonder why there is no drop down menu with Search Result in my console?

You need to activate it by turning on the Average position.
See my screenshot.

I did that but still..

I wonder what I am missing...

Hey Olga. Have you found "Search Results" under the Performance tab? I don't see it either.

Hi Hein, unfortunately not. But i have watched Jay's latest class and noticed the same thing on his Candy making club website when he showed the console. I wonder if this menu changes as the website grows, and we don't have the drop down bit when the site is new...

When you start out with Google search console, it starts out with a single 'Performance' link and then grows to 'Search Results' as your traffic grows.

But I have looked in some of my own sites that are just starting out and have the 'Performance' link - and they all have the filter feature on the right.

Perhaps it is not released to everyone, but am not sure of this.

Thank you Jay, if there is an alternative way to find high ranking How to’s, please share, will be much appreciated.

Hi Olga,

Click on the performance tab, top left
Click all four boxes along the top with different colours
Go to the far right, click on the 3 lines making a pyramid
Click top queries (little Box)
If nothing comes up in the main display that means that the Google Search Console does not have enough information to give you so that you can analyse your data.

Try again in a couple of years time.

Regards

Brian

Hi Brian, thank you for the prompt: yes I suspect the absence is due to the site being new.

Jay, thank you, you are a treasure! I am immediately putting this info to use.
