Why use Pages?
SEO, analytics, and AI visibility data usually live in separate tools. Pages brings them together so you can see the full picture for any page on your site: how it ranks in search, how much traffic it gets, and whether AI platforms cite it. Filter and sort across all these metrics to find the pages that need attention.Prerequisites
- A Slate account with an active workspace
- Google Search Console connected to Slate (required)
- Google Analytics (GA4) connected to Slate (recommended)
- AI Visibility configured for your brand (optional, for citation data)
Setup
Step 1: Connect your data sources
Pages requires at least a Google Search Console connection. For the full 360-degree view, connect all three sources:- Google Search Console — provides clicks, impressions, CTR, and ranking positions. If GSC isn’t connected, click Connect Google Search Console on the banner in Pages. After you sign in with Google, the setup wizard opens. See the GSC integration guide.
- Google Analytics (GA4) — provides traffic, sessions, engagement time, and key events. See the Google Analytics integration guide.
- AI Visibility — provides citation counts and citation rates. Set up tracking in the AI Visibility section.
If Google Analytics is not connected, Pages shows a Connect Google Analytics banner. Pages still works with GSC data alone, but the Google Analytics columns have no data.
Step 2: Configure page tracking
- Go to Insights → Pages in the Slate sidebar.
- Click the gear button (Set up Google Search Console sync) in the Pages header.
- On Properties, select a Connection and one or more properties. Click Continue.
- On Sitemaps, optionally select the detected sitemaps or add one manually. Click Continue.
- On Pages, choose which pages sync, then click Start sync:
The wizard estimates how many pages will sync, using the last 90 days of Search Console data.
To change the setup later, click the gear button again. It now opens Google Search Console sync settings. Make your changes, then click Apply changes.
The Pages table
The All Pages tab lists every synced page with metrics from each connected data source.Available columns
Every metric shows its value and the change from the previous period. Position shows the change in positions; other metrics show a percentage change.
Filtering
Click Add filter and choose a metric. Each metric supports numeric operators:- Greater than / Greater than or equal
- Less than / Less than or equal
- Equals / Not equals
- Impressions > 1,000 AND CTR < 2% — pages with search visibility but poor click-through
- Position trend < -5 — pages that lost more than 5 positions
- Citations = 0 AND Clicks > 500 — high-traffic pages not cited by AI platforms
Sorting
Click any column header to sort by that metric. Click again to toggle between ascending and descending order.Date range
Use the date range picker to view data for a specific time period. Presets include Today, Yesterday, This week, This month, Last 7 days (the default), and Last 30 days. Custom date ranges are also supported. The delta values compare the selected period against the previous period of the same length.Page details
Click a row to open the page details panel. It shows the page’s tracking status (Tracked, Previously tracked, or Not tracked) and:- Metric cards for Traffic, Clicks, Citation Rate, Citation Share, Citations, Unique Prompts, and Visibility Score. Click a card to chart it. Check Compare to add the previous period.
- Prompt Citations — AI Visibility prompts that cited the page, and whether your brand and competitors were mentioned
- Agent’s view — the page’s Memory document and recent activity
Syncing data
Slate syncs page data automatically. The header shows Updated with the last sync time, or Syncing… during a sync. To sync now, click the gear button (Google Search Console sync settings), then click Sync all. Sync all is available when you have no unsaved changes. Click Sync history to see recent syncs with their status, duration, and what changed.GSC data has a 2–3 day processing delay from Google, so the most recent days may show incomplete data.
Page sync limit
If your plan has a page limit, the header shows synced pages out of your limit (for example, 1,200 / 5,000 pages). The button turns amber when you’re over the limit. Pages beyond the limit pause metric syncing until you raise the limit or remove pages. Click the button, then click Add Pages add-on to open billing. Each Pages add-on pack raises the limit by 5,000 pages.Actions
Export to Slate Sheets
Select one or more pages using the checkboxes, then click Add to sheets in the header:- Create new sheet — name the sheet and click Create. The sheet gets a URL column with the selected page URLs.
- Add to existing sheet — pick a sheet, a tab, and the column for the URLs.
Use cases
Find pages that need better titles and descriptions
Filter for pages with high impressions but low CTR. These pages appear in search results but fail to attract clicks — a sign that the title tag or meta description needs improvement. How: Filter Impressions > 1,000 + CTR < 2%. Sort by impressions descending to prioritize the highest-opportunity pages.Catch ranking drops early
Filter by position trend to see which pages lost rankings during the selected period. Catching drops early lets you investigate and fix issues before traffic declines. How: Filter Position trend < -3 to find pages that lost more than 3 positions.Prioritize content refreshes
Find pages with declining clicks or sessions. These are strong candidates for content updates, since they had traffic before and can likely recover with refreshed content. How: Filter Click trend < 0, then try Sessions trend < 0. Cross-reference with position data to understand whether the decline is from ranking loss or seasonal trends. After you ship a refresh, log it in Content Updates so you can attribute future traffic shifts back to the change.Discover AI visibility gaps
Compare your organic search performance with AI citation data. Pages that rank well in traditional search but have zero AI citations may need optimization for AI platforms. How: Filter Citations = 0 + Clicks > 100. These are pages that search engines value but AI models do not cite.Monitor your highest-value pages
Sort by clicks or sessions to identify your top-performing pages. Track them over time to ensure they maintain their performance. How: Sort by Clicks descending. Use the date range picker to compare week-over-week or month-over-month trends.Identify engagement problems
Find pages that get traffic but have low engagement time. These pages attract visitors but may not deliver the content users expect. How: Filter Traffic > 100, then sort by Engagement time ascending. Review these pages for content quality, page speed, or user experience issues.What’s next
