How much historical data does Google Search Console store?
Performance Reports & Data
Google Search Console stores up to 16 months of Performance report data. If you need to keep data longer, you should:
- Export data regularly as CSV or Google Sheets
- Use the Search Console API to store data in your own database
- Use a tool like AutoPSEO that automatically stores and analyzes your historical data
How AutoPSEO helps
AutoPSEO extends the Performance report with period comparisons, branded/non-branded splits, regex filters, uncapped exports and reports Google does not offer: content decay, keyword cannibalization, CTR benchmarks by position and traffic forecasts, all computed from your own Search Console rows.
