: Which websites should I really add to Google Search Console? Right now I have all versions of my website added as separate properties in Google Search Console, meaning: http://example.com http://www.example.com

Right now I have all versions of my website added as separate properties in Google Search Console, meaning:

example.com http://www.example.com example.com https://www.example.com


example.com is set as the preferred domain in the site settings.

I'm also using Cloudflare with a few page rules:


Always use HTTPS (any address inserted as *example.com/* will be redirected to the https version.
301 redirect from example.com/* to example.com/.

So the website is always loaded as HTTPS on the naked domain. I don't even have recorded analytics on the non-naked and non-htpps versions of the site on Google Search Console.

Which begs the question, can I have just a single property, ie: example.com?
EDIT:

The suggested question as duplicate is asking about moving from http to https, which is different from what I'm asking. I've had server page rules for redirection since before launching the website, does it still make sense to have those 4 properties in GSC? Why? I believe that's a different question which is not answered in the other question.
