What this means for your shop
Only 58% of audited sites use LocalBusiness schema, so adding it puts your site ahead of a large share of local competitors.
Just 42% of sites have a tel link and 42% have analytics, so a tap-to-call number and basic tracking are easy wins.
Only 21% of sites have an llms.txt file and 0% block AI, so a clear llms.txt costs you little and sets you apart.
