What this means for your shop
Only 42% of local sites use LocalBusiness schema, so adding it puts your shop ahead of most of the market.
Just 21% of sites have an llms.txt file, and 0% block AI crawlers, so an llms.txt file is an easy edge.
Only 21% run analytics and 42% use tel links, so a tap-to-call button and basic tracking are open gaps.
