Jacob's Java scores 66 out of 100, below the Spokane Coffee / Cafe median of 69. Biggest gap: Google Business Profile, 0 of 15 points.
What to fix first, and why
Jacob's Java doesn't have a Google Business Profile, and that one gap shuts it out of every map result for searches like "coffee shop near me spokane." The map is where most local searches end — no profile means no pin, no hours, no directions, no click. The site does show up in web results on at least one tracked search, and its Spokane city signal is solid: the title and meta description both name the city clearly. The first fix is straightforward: claim or create a profile at business.google.com and verify it by postcard or phone.

What to Fix, in Order
4 fixes · free to read
Most costly first. Every fix is written out in full.
Fix first3
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.
The site's structured data doesn't describe a local business.
The fix: Add a LocalBusiness or category-specific subtype (Restaurant, Dentist, etc.) entity with full NAP.
Why it matters · for your developerFor your developer
LocalBusiness structured data spells out the hours, services and service area for Google. Without it, Google leans on the listings that do.
Business info for Google. No LocalBusiness schema: JSON-LD is present but no LocalBusiness (or subtype) entity is declared. Local pack ranking relies on this.
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 developerFor 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.
Show the other 1 fix
When there's time1
1 of 8 images on the homepage has no text description.
The fix: Add descriptive alt text to content images. Use empty alt='' only for decorative images.
Why it matters · for your developer
Alt text feeds image search and screen readers. The missing ones are reach left on the table.
Page basics. 1 of 8 images missing alt text: Alt text helps both accessibility and image search ranking.
