## **🎯 What to Do If...**

### **❓ "My Dashboard is Empty"**

**Likely causes:**

* Property just connected (wait 5-10 minutes)
* No GSC data for selected date range
* Property not collecting data yet

**Solutions:**

* ✅ Wait a few minutes and refresh
* ✅ Try a longer date range (last 3 months)
* ✅ Check GSC directly to verify data exists

### **❓ "Metrics Look Wrong"**

**Check these:**

* ✅ Correct property selected?
* ✅ Right date range?
* ✅ Data synced recently? (check sync timestamp)
* ✅ Compare with Google Search Console directly

### **❓ "Numbers Different from GSC"**

**This is normal because:**

* ⏰ GSC data has 2-3 day delay
* 📊 We may filter certain queries/pages
* 🔄 Sync timing differences
* Usually within 5% variance is normal
