Local SEO Audit

GBP, NAP, Citations, and Map Pack — All in One Report

I check what generic audits miss — Google Business Profile completeness, NAP consistency across directories, local schema markup , citation gaps, and map pack ranking factors. Every finding prioritised by impact on your local visibility.

46% of Google searches have local intent. If your local SEO hasn't been audited properly, you're invisible for nearly half of them. This audit covers both your website health and the local signals that actually determine map pack rankings.

What the Local Audit Checks

Google Business Profile Scorecard

Categories, business hours, photos, posts, Q&A, review response rate, and service descriptions — all checked against best practice and scored

NAP Consistency Scan

Name, Address, Phone cross-referenced across your website, Google Business Profile, and major directories. Every inconsistency flagged in one report

Citation Gap Analysis

Missing directory listings identified — Yell, Thomson Local, industry-specific directories. Shows exactly which citations to build, prioritised by authority

Local Schema Validation

LocalBusiness schema, geo-coordinates, opening hours markup, and service area coverage — the structured data that tells search engines where you operate

40 Standard Checks Included

The local layer sits on top of the full 40-check technical audit — meta tags, headings, images, links, security, performance, and site architecture all covered

When a Local SEO Audit Makes the Difference

Your website might be technically sound — but your local presence tells a different story.

  • You're not showing in the map pack despite a website that passes standard technical audits — because those audits don't check GBP, NAP, or local schema
  • You've had an SEO audit before and it said your site was fine — but it only checked website health, not the local signals that drive map pack rankings
  • You're an agency managing local clients across different industries — plumbers, dentists, solicitors — and each needs local-specific findings, not generic technical reports
  • You don't know which local fixes will actually move rankings and you're guessing at priorities instead of fixing the highest-impact issues first

What You Get in the Report

Standard technical audit findings plus a dedicated local SEO section — the layer that generic tools miss entirely.

Local SEO Audit — Google Business Profile health, citation matrix, and local pack tracker

GBP Scorecard

Your Google Business Profile scored against best practice — categories, hours, photos, posts, Q&A, reviews, service descriptions. Clear score with specific fixes for every gap.

NAP Consistency Report

Every mismatch between your website, GBP, and directory listings flagged. NAP inconsistencies confuse search engines and tank local trust — this report shows exactly where they are.

Local Schema Analysis

LocalBusiness schema validation, geo-coordinates check, opening hours markup, service area coverage. The structured data that tells Google what your business does and where it operates.

Prioritised Local Roadmap

AI-generated recommendations contextualised to your business type and location. A plumber gets different advice than a solicitor. Every fix ranked by impact on local rankings.

How I Deliver This

The local audit layer sits on top of the standard 40-check pipeline. Crawl4AI handles the browser-based crawl. The rule engine scores technical health. Then the local layer adds GBP analysis, NAP consistency scanning, local schema validation, and citation gap detection. The AI generates recommendations contextualised to the business type — because a dentist's local SEO priorities are different from a plumber's. This is part of the full SEO automation suite. Agencies: this audit is available as a white-label option. See exactly how the audit engine works →
