: What is the difference between Google Webmaster Tools and Google Search Console? I see many questions concerning the Google Search Console and Google Webmaster Tools. What is the major differences

@Chiappetta492

It is the same service. The service is called search console and is also referred to as webmaster tools. You have "webmasters/tools" in the URL and "search console" as the title of the page.

What is the major differences between the two services?

None. Nada. Zip. Bupkis.

They are precisely the same thing. Webmaster tools was renamed Search Console.

From what I have seen it looks like Google Webmasters is converting to Google Search Console. I have had google webmasters bookmarked since inception and once I signed up for google search console my webmaster bookmark redirects to search console.
