Show previous requests in Yandex. Clearing the history of queries in the Yandex search bar. How to use these statistics

Want to see what queries your site is in the top of the search results for? Or find out the effectiveness of a snippet? Use Yandex.Webmaster, and we will tell you how to do it.

The Yandex.Webmaster service is a convenient tool for webmasters and SEO-optimizers with rich and useful functionality. One of the features of this service is to view search queries for which the site is displayed in the first 50 positions in Yandex's search results. These phrases contain detailed information about position, impressions, clicks and CTR. The tool not only allows you to see the latest search queries, but also to conduct a small analysis of the current state of web pages and optimize them.

To enter Yandex.Webmaster, you need to create an account on Yandex, go to webmaster.yandex.ru, add a site and confirm the rights to it using one of the proposed methods (using an HTML code, a file, a DNS record).

Search queries in "Webmaster"

The service provides an opportunity to view the latest search queries for which the site appeared in the search results. They can be sorted by time span and region. Additionally, the data is displayed in the form of a graph for all keys, groups, queries from the top. Each keyword has detailed information that allows you to determine how many times the pages of a web resource were displayed in the SERP and how often users clicked on them.

The list of keywords is automatically generated by Yandex taking into account search engine statistics. If the list generated by the search engine does not suit you, you can analyze the keywords that you personally selected. So, to keep track of certain key phrases, you can create your own list. The top ten keywords can be viewed in the general summary.

How to use search terms

Middle position

To see the average position for a specific keyword, you need to go to the "Search queries" section in the "Webmaster", select the "Recent queries" item and click "All queries". The column "Position" displays information about which line the site occupies for a specific key request.

The service gives an average value, since it is impossible to find out the exact current position due to the personalization of the results for each Internet user. You may notice the peculiarities of personalized search results: search for the same word in Yandex from different computers or laptops (from work, home), and you will notice that the search result will differ significantly.

The average site position obtained using Yandex.Webmaster can be compared with data from other online services. This allows you to get a more complete picture of the current position of the site.

Requests for which visitors come

When optimizing a site, it is necessary to identify the keywords for which Internet users are already coming to the site in order to add them to the semantic core. To do this, in the "Webmaster" you need to go to "Search queries", select "History" and "Popular queries".

You can add words that appear in this section to the previously developed semantics. They should be used when populating web page meta tags and when creating h1 headers. Additional optimization for these words allows you not only to keep the traffic source, but also to move up to higher positions.

Impressions and clicks

Pay attention to the "Clicks" column next to the "Impressions" column. If the number of impressions is large, but there are very few clicks, this indicates a bad, unattractive snippet for visitors. A snippet is a small description that appears under a heading in search results. Using the tool, you can find pages where you need to correct this description in order to make it more informative and attractive to visitors.

To optimize a snippet, you first need to find a page that is relevant to a specific keyword. To do this, use incognito mode, enter the selected keyword in the search bar and find your site. Next, you need to compare the snippet of your web resource with the snippets of competing sites located in the top. It is enough to make changes to the meta tags to increase the likelihood of a click.

Thus, Yandex.Webmaster is useful for SEO optimization of a web resource, as it allows you to:

• determine the average position of the website upon request;
• analyze and improve the snippet in the search engine results.

Search queries are just one of the functionality provided by the "Webmaster". If you are promoting your Internet resource on your own, do not forget about this convenient and free tool of the Yandex search engine.

When you search on a particular search engine, it stores your queries. Developers are aware that it is common for users to search for the same information over time. Therefore, when we enter repeating words, we see in the prompts already familiar phrases we entered earlier. This kind of help is not always helpful. The topic of this article will be deleting the history of queries in the Yandex search bar.

Regardless of whether you are authorized in the Yandex system, the search engine together with the browser remember the history of the phrases you entered. If you are using a familiar word, then all your past queries will be highlighted in purple. To quickly delete one or more of them, you can hover the cursor over the desired one here in the line and click on the cross. Thus, it will forever disappear from the prompts, not only in the current session, but also after restarting the browser or even the computer. Try it yourself now.

Next, we want to see the demand for this request by months. Click on the link "by month" at the top (Figure 2).

Figure 2. History of the request "website promotion" by months.
