First-party data

Your clients' real search data. Not someone else's estimates.

Vizbly connects directly to Google Search Console, Google Analytics 4, and Google Business Profile — the verified sources your clients own. No modelled traffic. No third-party panels. No numbers you have to explain away.

Why estimates create problems

The gap between estimates and GSC follows you into the client call.

Third-party tools estimate traffic

They use clickstream panels and keyword databases. The gap between those estimates and what Google Search Console actually reports is often significant — and it widens for branded queries, clients with lower traffic volumes, and local search performance.

The gap follows you into the call

When the tool says one number and GSC says another, you are spending time explaining a model instead of demonstrating value. Clients start questioning everything on the report, not just the one figure they spotted.

Vizbly uses no third-party estimates

Every performance metric comes from the verified connections your clients have already established with Google. If the signal is not in your client's first-party data, Vizbly does not invent it.

Three verified data sources

Your clients' own data. All in one place.

GSC

Google Search Console

GSC is the authoritative record of how a client's site appears and performs in Google Search.

Impressions, clicks, CTR, and average position — at keyword level and page level, in separate data calls to preserve data integrity

Search appearance coverage — product snippets, merchant listings, translated results, AMP variants, Google Jobs, and other GSC searchAppearance feature types

Branded vs non-branded query split — using each client's approved brand variants from their Client Intelligence Profile, so discovery-driven search demand is kept separate from brand-driven demand

Metric note: GSC impressions, clicks, CTR, and average position are sourced directly from the verified connection. Computed values — trend deltas, branded/non-branded splits, and coverage summaries — are derived from that source data and labelled.

GA4

Google Analytics 4

GA4 closes the loop between search appearance and what happens after the click.

Organic sessions attributed to search

Conversions from organic search traffic

This is how Vizbly connects a keyword position to a business outcome — not by inferring it from impressions, but by reading the session and conversion data directly from GA4.

GBP

Google Business Profile

For agencies managing location-based clients, GBP adds the local discovery layer.

Vizbly pulls GBP engagement and local discovery signals — website clicks, calls, direction requests, and review and rating data where available — so that local search presence is part of the same visibility picture, not tracked in a separate spreadsheet.

Owned visibility

Everything your client's search presence is built on.

Owned visibility is Vizbly's model for what agencies can measure and influence using first-party data alone.

Organic search presence

Impressions, clicks, position, and trend from GSC

Local discovery

GBP engagement and local discovery signals

Search appearance coverage

Which GSC feature types your client's pages appear in

Post-click outcomes

Organic sessions and conversions from GA4

Owned visibility does not include paid search, paid social, email, or channels outside your clients' verified data connections. That scope is intentional. Vizbly gives agencies a defensible view of the search visibility signals they can measure from verified connections — not an aggregated estimate of everything.

What you can do with this data layer

The first-party data layer feeds every analysis and every recommendation.

It is what the rest of Vizbly is built on.

Keyword performance tracking

Weekly GSC impressions, clicks, position, and trend for each active keyword target your analyst is managing. Alerts when a keyword drops below threshold. Evidence for every recommendation that references it.

Intent gap analysis

Reveals which intent classes — navigational, informational, transactional, local — have no active keyword targets, low confidence coverage, or declining performance. Built from GSC query data, classified against the client's intelligence profile.

Keyword hypothesis engine

Generates keyword opportunities from GSC signals and the client's business profile. Grounded in what the client is already getting impressions for — not a keyword volume database.

Business-context AI recommendations

Every interpretation of this data is grounded in the client's objectives, audience, and KPIs. The first-party data layer is what makes that grounding possible — without it, the AI has no real signal to interpret.
