SiteGuru makes it easy to collaborate with colleagues and clients by allowing you to invite an unlimited number of users to your account—at no extra cost. Whether you're part of a marketing agency or an in-house SEO team, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know about managing users effectively in SiteGuru.
How to Add a New User
To get started, navigate to the People screen in your Settings. Here, you’ll find an overview of all currently active users on your account.
To invite a new team member or client, click “Add someone.” You’ll then be prompted to enter their email address and select their user role. You can also include a personal welcome message to make the onboarding process feel more engaging.
Once you click “Send,” the invitation is sent and the new user will appear in your list of invited users.
Understanding User Roles
SiteGuru offers three user roles, each with different levels of access:
- Account Owner: Full access to all features. Can manage all websites, invite new users, and change account settings.
- Colleague: Can view and edit all websites but cannot invite new users or manage others.
- Client: Access is limited to specific websites. Can make basic edits but not delete content.
Managing Invitations
Once an invitation is sent, the user will receive an email prompting them to accept the invite. Only after accepting will they start receiving regular updates from SiteGuru.
If a user hasn’t accepted the invitation yet, you can easily resend it. Simply click “Resend invite” next to their name, and a new email will be sent to their inbox.
Inviting Existing SiteGuru Users
You can invite someone to your account even if they already have a SiteGuru account with another client or their own personal account. Once invited, they’ll be able to switch between different accounts using the dropdown menu at the top of the page. This makes SiteGuru especially convenient for freelancers and consultants who manage multiple websites for different clients.
Updating User Roles and Access
Need to make changes to a user’s role or access level? No problem.
Click on the user’s email address in the People screen to update their role or to modify which websites a client can access. This gives you full control over who can see and manage what within your SiteGuru account.
Deleting Users
If someone is no longer involved in the project, you can delete their account directly from the user management interface. Only the account owner has the ability to delete users.
If a user wants to leave SiteGuru entirely, they can delete their own account from their profile settings. This can be done by clicking the profile icon, selecting their email, and scrolling down to the delete option.
Connecting Google Accounts
For clients who want to connect their Google accounts—so you can link Search Console and Analytics data—SiteGuru uses a secure two-step process:
- The client connects their Google account.
- The account owner then links that account to the appropriate website and selects the relevant Search Console or Analytics property.
This ensures that sensitive data is only shared with the right people and that the correct Google properties are connected.
Seamless Collaboration with SiteGuru
Thanks to flexible user roles, unlimited invites, and thoughtful permission controls, SiteGuru makes it easy to collaborate with your team and clients. Whether you're a growing agency or a solo SEO expert working with multiple clients, managing users has never been more straightforward.
