Dr. C Family Dentistry - Spokane Valley
Ranking #4 for "best dentist spokane" is real traction. But three sites sit above you — deltadental.com, northviewfamilydental.com, and drweigand.com — and the gap between you and them is mostly structural, not reputational. Your 4.8 rating across 1,522 reviews is exceptional. Google sees it. What Google doesn't see clearly: your location. A localization score of 40/100 means your title mentions Spokane, but your meta description and contact markup don't reinforce it. That's a signal problem, not a content problem. You're also missing LocalBusiness schema entirely — no structured data telling Google exactly what you are, where you are, and who you serve. Among the nine Spokane dentists audited here, you rank 6th overall. That's the gap. This report shows you the specific markup, copy, and profile changes that move the needle on those localization signals.
