If a customer looked you up on their phone right now, would they find you, trust you and be able to reach you?

Somerville Chamber members can find out for free. PageTend.com is offering every member a Storefront Checkup, normally $250. We go through your website and your Google listing the way a customer would, then send you a written report: what is working, what is costing you customers, and exactly what to do about it. Most people searching for a local business are on a phone, and this is how they see you.

What your report looks like

• A plain-English summary of where you stand and the two or three fixes that would help most.
• Every finding sorted into “Fix first,” “Worth fixing” and “Looking good,” so you know where to start and what you are already doing right.
• For each finding: what we saw, why it matters to your customers, and what to do about it, in words you can hand straight to whoever looks after your site.

What we check on your website

• Secure connection (SSL/https). Does your secure address work, or do visitors get a “Not secure” warning?
• Made for phones. Does your site fit a phone screen, or do customers get a tiny desktop page they have to pinch and zoom?
• Speed. Google’s mobile speed score for your home page, how fast your main content appears, and how quickly your server responds.
• Tap-to-call and contact. Can a customer tap your phone number? Is there a contact form or an easy way to ask for a quote or book?
• Your content. Does the first screen say what you do? Are your hours on the page? Is the copyright year current, or does your footer look abandoned? Is your menu or price list stuck in a PDF that is hard to read on a phone?
• How you look in search. Your page title and the short description Google shows under your name.

What we check on your Google Business Profile

• Is your listing found and correct? Address, phone number, website link and hours, and whether they match your website.
• Reviews. How many you have, your rating, how recent they are and whether anyone replies.
• Photos. Photos of your own work, or only Google’s street view?
• Your description, posts and categories. Whether you have told customers what you do, and whether your categories match what they search for. We also look for a wrong map pin or a duplicate listing.

What Google reads behind your pages

Search engines read hidden business details in your page’s code: your address, phone number and hours. When they are missing, Google has to guess. We check that they are there, that they are right and that they match your listing.
