Domains Overview
The Domains Overview is your portfolio view across every client in Sage — set up new domains, check live performance, and decide where to focus next.
The Domains Overview is the portfolio view for your agency. Every client domain you manage sits on this one page, each row showing live search performance pulled directly from Google Search Console. It's the page you open first thing in the morning to see which clients need attention and the page you close last to confirm nothing's on fire.
Key Takeaways
One row per client domain, with live impressions / clicks / CTR from GSC
Auto-generated Company Overview per domain feeds the AI Suggestions Engine downstream
Adding a new domain takes ~60 seconds + GSC OAuth approval
The domain MUST already exist in your Google Search Console account
Click any row to drill into that domain's full dashboard, content calendar, and SEO analytics
What you see on the page
The domain list
Each row represents one client domain. The columns at a glance:
Domain name
The client's site URL + a friendly label you can edit
Impressions (30d)
How often the site appeared in search results last 30 days
Clicks (30d)
How often someone actually clicked through
CTR
Clicks ÷ Impressions — a quick signal of whether titles/descriptions are working
Status pill
Connected (live GSC sync) · Disconnected (needs re-auth) · Stale (data >24h old)
Actions

The Company Overview
When you add a new domain, Sage automatically:
Crawls the homepage + service pages
Generates a 1-paragraph company overview describing what the business does
Assigns 2 industry categories based on the content
This overview is what makes the AI Suggestions Engine actually useful — Sage knows the client is "a B2B accounting software company serving SMBs" instead of just "they have a website." Suggestions get framed accordingly.
You can edit the overview anytime to refine the framing. The next batch of AI suggestions will use the updated version.
Adding a new domain
The full flow:
Click "Add Project" at the top of the Domains Overview
Connect Google Search Console — pick the Google account that owns the domain's GSC property
Choose the domain — Sage lists every property in your GSC; pick the one to track
Confirm client details — optionally edit the auto-detected company name + primary contact
Done — the domain appears in your portfolio within 30–60 seconds
The domain must already exist in your Google Search Console account. Sage doesn't add domains to GSC for you — that's GSC's separate verification process. If a client doesn't have GSC set up yet, that's step 0 before Sage can do anything.
Why this is your starting point
Sage is built around per-domain workflows — almost every other page in the platform is scoped to one domain at a time. The Domains Overview is the one place you see across all clients at once.
Daily usage pattern:
Morning glance — Domains Overview to see which clients have new activity or stalled metrics
Click into a domain — Open Content Calendar or Performance Dashboard for that client
Take action — Queue new article topics, review pending publishes, check indexing status
Return to portfolio view — Move to the next client
The clients you want at the top of the list are usually the ones with rising CTR or rising impressions but flat clicks — both signal opportunity. The CTR shows titles+descriptions are working; the flat-clicks-with-rising-impressions tells you content is matching new queries but not converting them yet.
What Sage handles automatically per domain
Daily GSC refresh — Sage re-pulls impressions/clicks/CTR every 24 hours
Per-URL indexing inspection — see the Google Index dashboard for each domain's coverage
Sitemap sync — Sage knows every published URL on each domain via its
sitemap.xmlCompany overview refresh — re-crawls the homepage periodically to catch business changes

Frequently asked questions
How often does Sage auto-refresh data?
Every 24 hours by default. You can force a refresh on any domain anytime via the Refresh button — that pulls fresh data within ~30 seconds.
Will deleting a domain remove historical data?
Yes. Removal is permanent — articles, generation history, GSC snapshots, and the company overview are all dropped. Only do this if the client is truly no longer being served.
Can I connect the same GSC account to multiple Sage workspaces?
Yes. Each workspace stores its own GSC credentials securely. Useful if you run multiple agency entities or want to separate prod from staging.
Does Sage need access to all of my GSC properties?
Sage only reads the properties you explicitly add as domains. GSC's OAuth flow grants Sage permission to see your property list, but you choose which ones to actually track in Sage.
What's the difference between this page and the Performance Dashboard?
Domains Overview = portfolio view across all clients (this page)
Performance Dashboard = drill-in for one specific client's keyword/page/traffic detail
Use this page to navigate; use the Dashboard to investigate.
