What You Can Expect From Our Audit

Profile Completeness & Accuracy

Your Google Business Profile serves as your digital storefront in local search results. Incomplete, outdated, or inconsistent business information confuses both search engines and potential customers, potentially dropping you from local search visibility.

Our Google Business Profile Audit identifies critical information gaps and inconsistencies that could be costing you customers and revenue right now.

NAP Consistency – Analyzes your Name, Address, and Phone number across the web to ensure perfect alignment, preventing the trust and ranking penalties that come with contradictory business information.

Business Attributes – Reviews your category selections, business attributes, and special features to maximize relevance for high-intent local searches in your industry.

Hours Accuracy – Confirms your regular and special hours are correctly configured to prevent the devastating customer experience of arriving at a closed location after Google showed you as open.

Service Area Precision – Evaluates your geographic service settings to ensure you’re appearing in relevant “near me” searches without wasting visibility in areas you don’t serve.

Visual Presence Optimization

First impressions happen before customers ever visit your location. Poor quality images, missing photo categories, and outdated visuals can drive potential customers straight to competitors.

Businesses with complete, high-quality visual assets receive 42% more direction requests and 35% more website clicks.
