Overview
Yes—contentbird’s analysis works even if only one of the two Google services is connected. However, you will only have access to limited data.
Data from individual services
🔌 Google Analytics
If only Google Analytics is connected, you’ll get:
number of visitors
bounce rate
time on page
other user-related metrics
👉 Focus: traffic & user behavior
🔍 Google Search Console
If only Search Console is connected, you’ll get:
keyword rankings
impressions
clicks & CTR
👉 Focus: SEO & visibility
Important note
Rankings are only displayed if there are impressions within the selected time period.
Limitations when using only one service
No complete view of content performance
No connection between traffic and rankings
Limited ability to evaluate ROI and overall performance
Recommendation
For a complete analysis, you should combine both services:
Google Analytics → user behavior
Google Search Console → search performance
👉 Only the combination enables a holistic evaluation of your content.
Conclusion
contentbird analysis can be used with just one Google service, but it will only show part of the picture.
For well-informed, data-driven decisions, it’s best to integrate both data sources.
