I’ve heard that search webmaster tools can help boost website visibility, but I’m not sure where to start. How do I set it up, track performance, and fix issues efficiently?

The first thing to do is to verify your webpage using Google Search Console (or Bing Webmaster Tools in case of using Bing). After that, you can monitor clicks, impressions and average position of your pages.
Test the Covers and Core Web Vitals to eliminate indexing problems and page speed problems. Considering the Search Analytics / Performance on a regular basis will assist you to optimize poorly ranking pages.
It is not magic, and regular monitoring + correction of mistakes do help your SEO in the long run.

Honestly I was extremely bewildered at the beginning. Simply make an account, add your website and prove ownership (mostly through HTML file or meta tag). Then, you could literally notice the pages which are liked by Google and the ones with mistakes.
You will have the ideas of which pages should be worked more even by checking once a week.

There is no use using Search Console without updating your content. Simply following numbers will not increase the ranking of your site.

No way, that's not true. You at least see broken links, crawling errors and security problems. There is no such solution except fixing them and it is more visible.

Fair enough, however, too many people believe that to check a dashboard is to do SEO lollol.

Working on Webmaster Tools is a little like having a parent to a web site.
Hey kid, your page is busted here, your speed is slow there and no one is visiting this page either.
However, in reality, it is really useful. All you need to do is do what it says and not disregard it.

To me, I would recommend the installation of all possible reports: Performance, Coverage, Mobile Usability, Security Issues, Sitemaps.
Review crawl errors at least once a week, resubmit revised sitemaps with every addition of new content and use Search Analytics to identify the keywords that are being clicked on. In the long run, this information will assist in the prioritization of the use of the pages to be enhanced initially.
It is all about monitoring tendencies and the correction of mistakes as effectively as possible, and not about overnight improvements.

Search Webmaster Tools (such as Google Search Console) enables you to enhance your website through search performance tracking and indexing problem detection and sitemap submission. The tool enables users to find mistakes while monitoring search engine rankings of their keywords and studying user interaction with their website content and Google's assessment of their web pages. The process of resolving reported issues leads to better website visibility and improved SEO results and enhanced overall website performance.
