Search Console Domain Property

A Search Console Domain property groups Google Search data for a domain across supported protocols and subdomains, rather than tracking only a single URL prefix.

A Search Console Domain property groups Google Search data for a domain across supported protocols and subdomains, rather than tracking only a single URL prefix. For example, a verified domain property can encompass both www and non-www versions of a landscaping company's site. Ownership verification for this property type uses DNS, so access to the domain's DNS settings is normally required. A Domain property differs from a URL-prefix property, which has narrower coverage and other available verification methods. Neither property type improves rankings simply by being created. Its purpose is to give an authorized owner visibility into how Google discovers and displays the site's content.
