What this means for your shop

  • Only 5 shops have under 50 reviews, so a shop below that mark is easy to spot next to the 173 median.

  • Just 50% of audited sites run analytics, so half of these owners cannot see where their web visitors come from.

  • LocalBusiness schema is on 83% of audited sites and llms.txt is on 67%, so a site without them is behind the local norm.
