November Search Console Click Spikes Linked to Bot Traffic
Search Engine Journal reports that bots are behind November click spikes in Google Search Console and discusses filtering reports.
Some websites are seeing sharp increases in Google Search Console clicks during November. Search Engine Journal reports that bot traffic, rather than human visitors, is behind the spikes it describes.
The distinction matters when assessing search performance: a sudden rise in reported clicks does not necessarily represent a comparable increase in people reaching a website.
The article also addresses how to identify the activity and filter reports. The source summary provided does not include the specific detection methods or filtering steps.
