  • Alan Bleiweiss: not sure if you can use advanced search methods directly in GSC`s reporting system like that. Personally, I just export the data to an Excel spreadsheet when I do audits, and then I can do all sorts of data filtering and sorting.
  • Chase Reiner: You have to do "query" + "other query" that modifier will do it. Just kidding I lied.
  • Alan Bleiweiss: Seriously though, given that GSC only provides 999 rows (why they can`t provide 1,000 I have no idea), why not just export the data to Excel and run all the filters you want?
  • Micah Fisher-Kirshner: There`s no way to filter for multiple queries sadly. It`s one filter and existing the data will usually not match up with the data in GSC. Pick a method you prefer and use that as a baseline going forward

  • Neil Cheesman: I will look at doing that....
