Anonymized Queries

Search terms in Google Search Console that are hidden from keyword reports because they were issued by fewer than a few dozen users over a two-to-three month period.

Search terms in Google Search Console that are hidden from keyword-level reports because they fall below Google's privacy threshold — typically issued by fewer than a few dozen users over a two-to-three month period. These queries still contribute to page-level and site-level click totals but are invisible in query-level data tables. An Ahrefs study found they account for 46% of all clicks.
