Console Plus
A powerful new way to view your Google Search Console data
I wrote an article describing what we are working on and why. We wanted to let people who are interested in it know exactly what are goals are and what they are not. So in this article I outlined where we are at, where we are headed and what to expect.
If you work with Google Search Console at all you should give it a read and comment on the article, or here on IH and I will definitely respond. Let us know what you think about the concept or what features you would like to see included.

We started reaching out to anyone who uses Google Search Console on a regular basis for their SEO work. We want to connect with people who use this and make business decisions directly with the data they view each day.
Our goal is to make this platform extremely useful for many different sizes of companies. Speaking directly with business owners and getting their feedback on some of the features we are building will be extremely valuable.
I will be conducting most of the interviews, luckily I got some really great training on this subject from the incredible product team I worked with at Pluralsight. Interviewing customers is not as straight-forward as you think, you have to truly listen and not force the conversation where you want it to go.
We designed and built a new landing page telling potential users about our product and what we plan to do. We aren't releasing many details or screenshots yet, but we are hoping people will be fired up enough about the concept to sign up for the beta. So far our feedback on the idea has been very positive from people who use Google Search Console.
The landing page is designed to address the many, many setbacks of Google Search Console, which we know first hand is lacking in lots of functionality, yet almost anyone who does SEO work is still using it on a regular basis instead of something better.

Thank you! I'm sure you've used Search Console a lot being an SEO god :) Do you have any immediate things you would want to see in our app? Ways to view your data, data enrichment, etc...?
Please sign up for the beta waiting list if you want to try it out. I'll reach out via email once you do and if you help us with feedback we can give you a few months of free membership once we launch. Sign up on the landing page at www.searchconsoleplus.co.

We started developing Console Plus as a SaaS product. Our plan is to get a beta release out to users in coming months, but to get at least 50 people signed up for the beta before we launch the beta release and open it up to users.
We so far can pull in all the data from Search Console and display it however we want, but more work needs to be done in interviewing customers and then deciding on features to build into the beta.
Ben and I are very good at building things with code. We've both been devs for over 10 years. I also have been doing design part-time for most of my career so I do all the design work. Development is definitely the least of our worries in terms of making this project a success, we're lucky to have two strong devs as co-founders in that regard. Our biggest issue is going to be getting the word out and finding our first 100 users.
