What to fix first, and why

Big Dog Energy is missing an H1 — no main heading on the homepage — which means Google has to guess what the page is about, and that guess costs map visibility. The site doesn't appear in map results for the core boarding searches in Spokane, even while landing in the top web results for at least one of them; closing that gap starts with giving Google a clear signal at the top of the page. The meta description runs past the cutoff Google displays, so the pitch under the search link gets clipped before it finishes. Add a single descriptive H1 that includes the primary keyword — something specific to pet boarding in Spokane — and that one edit addresses the most direct gap between the site and the listings ahead of it.

What to Fix, in Order

Most costly first. Every fix is written out in full.

Fix first1

  1. The homepage has no main heading.

    The fix: Add a single descriptive H1 to the page with the primary keyword.

    Why it matters · for your developer

    The main heading (the H1) tells Google and visitors what the page is about. Without one, both have to guess.

    Page basics. No H1 tag on page: Every page should have exactly one H1.

When there's time1

  1. The search preview is 225 characters, longer than Google shows.

    The fix: Rewrite the meta description with a concrete benefit and local keyword. Target ~150 characters.

    Why it matters · for your developer

    Under 70 characters says little, and past 160 it gets cut off. The preview is the pitch under the link.

    Page basics. Meta description is too long (225 chars): Meta descriptions display best between 70 and 160 characters.

Speed on a Phone
