Example result

AI executive summary

What's working

  • Profile fundamentals are complete: hours, phone, and address all match your website.
  • Payment options and accessibility attributes are set correctly.

Top fixes, in priority order

  1. 1.Add fresh photos this month

    No new photos in 90 days is a ranking signal Google weighs directly.

  2. 2.Reply to your last 4 reviews

    Unanswered reviews quietly hurt trust and your local ranking.

Bottom line

Solid fundamentals, but stalled review activity and a #4 local pack rank are costing Rowan's Coffee Shop visibility it could otherwise have.

Every fix comes with exact instructions

No check ever just tells you something's wrong and stops there. Every improve or fix item comes with concrete, business-specific guidance, and often a ready-to-use example, so you know exactly what to do next.

Reviews & Reputation

No new reviews in the last 60 days.

How to fix this+

Ask your last 10 in-person customers for a review with a direct link, and reply to every review you already have, even the old ones.

“Thanks so much for stopping by! If you have a minute, we'd really appreciate a quick review, it helps other coffee lovers find us.”

What your customers are actually saying

The full audit reads your real reviews and pulls out the recurring themes, both the praise and the complaints, so you know what to lean into and what to fix before it costs you more customers.

Example result

Reviews & reputation

Customers mention

  • Friendly, attentive staff
  • Consistently great espresso

Recurring complaints

  • Slow during the Saturday rush
  • Limited nearby parking

See exactly where you rank nearby

Checked from 5 points around your business, not a single lookup, so you see how your local pack position actually shifts depending on where a search comes from.

Example result

Local pack ranking

Below the local pack: you rank #4 at your own address

Google only shows the top 3 listings in the local pack, the ones searchers see before scrolling.

Common questions

What does GBP SEO Tools actually check?

+

The instant score checks profile completeness, category, contact info, and a review snapshot pulled live from Google's Places API. The full audit adds local pack ranking against nearby competitors, checked from 5 points around your business, reviews and reputation trends, trust and attributes, and a full profile completeness breakdown.

Do I need to sign in with Google to run an audit?

+

No. Search a business by name and select it, that's the entire setup. Nothing connects to your Google account, and it works the same whether you're checking your own listing or someone else's.

Will running an audit change anything on my Google Business Profile?

+

No. The audit is read-only. It never edits, posts to, or modifies a listing in any way, it only reads what's already public.

How is my local pack ranking calculated?

+

We check where your business actually ranks in the Google Maps 3-pack from 5 points around your location, not a single lookup, so you see how visibility shifts depending on where a search comes from.

Can I audit a business I don't own?

+

Yes. Since the audit only reads publicly available information and never requires ownership verification, it works on any business listed on Google Maps, including competitors.

How accurate is the data in a GBP SEO Tools audit?

+

Every check is built from live data: Google's own Places API for your profile, ratings, and local pack position, and DataForSEO to confirm directory presence on sites like Yelp and Facebook, not a cached snapshot or an estimate. The full audit's written summary and fix suggestions are generated by AI on top of those already-computed results, it explains the findings, it doesn't decide them.

Is the audit free?

+

The instant score is completely free, no card, no signup. The full audit unlocks with a one-time payment, not a subscription.

Why can't the audit show my full review history or reply status?

+

Google's public API caps review data at a handful of relevance-sorted reviews and doesn't expose reply or moderation status at all. Seeing that requires signing in as the business owner through Google's separate Business Profile API, which this tool deliberately doesn't ask for. Check your GBP dashboard directly for that.

What's the difference between the free score and the full audit?

+

The free score covers profile completeness, category, contact info, and a review snapshot. The full audit adds local pack ranking, reviews and reputation trends, trust and attributes, a full profile breakdown, and a printable report.

What other tools are coming?

+

The Google Business Profile audit is live today. We're building the rest of a local SEO toolkit around it, including a website audit, a review QR code generator, and more. See the roadmap for the full list.
