Warhorse Karate • Jiu Jitsu
#2 in Spokane out of 8 audited martial-arts schools. That's a real position. The local pack puts Warhorse at #2 for "martial arts school spokane" — visible, competitive, ahead of most of the market. Organic is a different story: #8, behind Lotus Academy, Spokane Karate, and a Yelp page. That gap has a specific cause. Google reads your page title before anything else. Warhorse's title doesn't anchor Spokane. The localization signal scores 25/100 — some signal present, but not enough to close ground on the organic leaders. Add a missing H1 and no LocalBusiness schema, and the page is giving Google less structure than the sites ranking above it. The 4.8 rating across 47 reviews is genuine leverage. That trust isn't translating into organic rank yet because the technical signals aren't reinforcing it. This report shows exactly where to close the gap — starting with the three fixes that move organic rank fastest.
