Google in late November 2025 expanded Search Console Insights to include linked social channel performance, allowing verified site owners to view clicks, impressions and top queries from Google Search to YouTube, X and other profiles. The testing-phase feature, announced on Google Search Central and seen by users in early December, centralizes social and web metrics for cross-platform analysis and reporting.
