| Median | 64 |
Howerton Plumbing Inc. scores 67 out of 100. Biggest gap: Google Business Profile, 0 of 15 points.
What to fix first, and why
Howerton Plumbing has no Google Business Profile, which means it doesn't appear on the map for any of the searches we track — and most local plumbing searches end on that map, never reaching the web results below. The site itself loads faster than the Spokane Plumbing median on mobile, and the title and meta description both name the city clearly, so Google understands where the business operates. That foundation is real. But without a profile, none of it surfaces where it needs to. The first fix is concrete: claim or create a Google Business Profile at business.google.com and complete verification by postcard or phone.

What to Fix, in Order
3 fixes · free to read
Most costly first. Every fix is written out in full.
Fix first1
No Google Business Profile found.
The fix: Claim or create a Google Business Profile at business.google.com. Verify by postcard or phone.
Why it matters · for your developerFor your developer
Without a profile there's no map listing, and most local searches end on the map. This is the biggest single gap a local business can have.
Google Business Profile. No Google Business Profile found: Without a GBP, the business cannot appear in the local pack — the single biggest local-SEO miss.
Next1
The site's structured data is missing the address or phone.
The fix: Fill in streetAddress, addressLocality, postalCode, and telephone in the LocalBusiness JSON-LD block.
Why it matters · for your developer
The map pack matches name, address and phone across the web. A gap here gives Google a reason to rank a better-matched listing.
Business info for Google. LocalBusiness schema is incomplete: Address or phone is missing from the LocalBusiness schema — both are required for the local pack signal.
When there's time1
The search preview is 175 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 (175 chars): Meta descriptions display best between 70 and 160 characters.
