What is Search Console, and why should we use it? 

Google Search Console is a free tool.  It gives site/blog owners the tools to check their site's performance. Not only does it show how our site is doing under the hood, but also how searchers see our site in the search results

• Blog/site owners can view Google Search traffic data: 
• how often our site appears in Google Search, 
• which search queries show our site, 
• how often do searchers click through for those queries
•  and Fix indexing problems and request re-indexing of new or updated content. 
• Receive alerts when Google encounters indexing, spam, or other issues on our site. 
• Show us which sites link to our website.

Why are there blogs/sites standing high in the search engine ranking? 

With view page source, we can check into their homepages and find that they use SEO optimizing software:
