Keyword Cannibalization
Detect pages on your site competing for the same keywords in Google Search and get recommendations to fix them.
Keyword Cannibalization detects queries where multiple pages on your site appear in Google Search results, diluting your ranking power. It uses Google Search Console data to identify these conflicts and provides actionable recommendations.
Requirements
This feature requires Google Search Console to be connected via the GA4 Integration. If GSC is not configured, the page will show a setup prompt.

Reading the Table
Click any row to expand and see the competing pages with their individual position, clicks, impressions, and CTR. A recommendation is shown at the bottom of each expanded row explaining how to resolve the conflict (e.g., consolidate pages, add canonical tags, or adjust targeting).
Filter by severity to focus on critical issues first. Use the date range selector (7, 14, 30, or 90 days) to analyze different time windows.
