: Will blocking my IP address in Google Analytics will affect Google Search Console search analytics? I block my IP in Google Analytics so as it will not count visitors from our IP address.

Assuming your site at least one month old, so it obvious to get impression if your site indexed and got few backlinks.

Now if you link your GSC to GA it will only show the keywords that have at least 100 monthly search volume (from my experience). If it come from different keywords and not showing organic keywords in GA then it might be a Google crawler or third party crawler. And in common sense blocking IP in GA won't hurt your SEO.

As I understand it, these are two separate systems. After all, in order to get GSC data into GA you have to create a connection between them. This would mean that normally, without a link, no data will (should?) be exchanged between them. Personally, I would be very surprised if indeed filters in GA would affect the data shown in GSC.

However, if you do keep having trouble logging data into GSC from your IP, try:


Using a different IP address, for instance by utilizing a VPN or Tor.
Try using a different browser, perhaps a browser plugin is messing things up
Logout and login to your Google account
