Spokane local-SEO audit · prepared for

THE SPACE | Barefoot Massage Spokane

Local pack #1. That's real traction. But organic rank #9 means three sites — Elements Massage, spokanemassage.com, and Vagaro — are pulling clicks that should reach you first. The gap isn't authority. It's signals Google uses to confirm location relevance. Your homepage title and meta description contain zero Spokane-specific language. Google can't confirm where you operate from the page itself. That's the gap. Slow mobile performance and incomplete LocalBusiness schema compound it — both affect how confidently Google surfaces you in organic results. This report shows exactly where those fixes live and what to prioritize first.

Top-3 local pack on this query — that's where the click-through actually lives. Defend it: thespacespokane.com's GBP and on-site signals need to stay clean so Google has no reason to swap you out.
