Getting Started with AgenticSEO

Welcome to AgenticSEO! This guide will help you set up your account and run your first autonomous SEO workflow.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, you'll need:

  • An AgenticSEO account (sign up at getagenticseo.com/signup)
  • Access to Google Search Console for your website
  • (Optional) WordPress.com or GitHub account for content publishing

Step 1: Connect Google Search Console

Your SEO data powers everything in AgenticSEO.

  1. Navigate to Settings → Integrations
  2. Click Connect Google Search Console
  3. Sign in with your Google account
  4. Select the property you want to optimize
  5. Confirm the connection

Tip: For best results, connect a property with at least 30 days of data.

  1. Go to Settings → Workspace
  2. Set your site URL (used for opportunity detection)

This ensures you review every action before it's executed.
