Do your locations look like one business or ten?
If every branch page lists head office's phone number, a search engine sees one location described ten times. It is the most common reason a multi-branch business ranks in one town and nowhere else, and you cannot see it from any single page.
- Every location page we can find, read against the others
- Locations sharing a phone number or an address
- Which branches are missing an address, hours, or a map
- Whether each one carries LocalBusiness schema search engines can read

We find your location pages ourselves.
Your pages, read against each other.
Our local SEO audit asks you for your phone number and address, because for a single-location business there is one correct answer and the useful question is whether your site agrees with it. With ten branches there are ten correct answers, and asking you to type all of them would be a worse form than any audit deserves.
So this one asks for nothing. It finds your location pages, reads what each publishes, and compares them. Completeness matters: a branch with no address is a branch nobody can visit. But distinctness matters just as much, and it is the part nobody checks. A site where every location lists the same central number scores perfectly on "has a phone number" while being as invisible in local search as one with no phone numbers at all.
We find location pages by their URL shape, under paths like /locations/yonkers or /offices/boston. If your branches live at the top level as /yonkers and /white-plains, we will not find them, because guessing which top-level pages are place names would mistake your service pages for branches. Your report says plainly when it found nothing rather than reporting a zero.
Multi-location FAQs
Because a search engine uses the phone number and address to decide that two pages describe two different places. When ten branch pages carry one central number, it has ten pages describing what looks like one business, and it will pick one of them to rank. Your calls still get answered. Your other nine towns just never see you.
Because with ten branches there is no single correct answer to compare against, and a form asking for ten addresses is a form nobody fills in.
We look for pages under a location-style path, like /locations/yonkers or /stores/austin. Tell us your URL pattern and we will tell you what we see.
No. This reads your website. Directories and profiles are a separate and larger problem, and it starts here: a location that is complete and distinct on your own site is one you can point a directory at with confidence, and an inconsistent one just spreads the inconsistency.
Up to thirty, the widest of our free audits. The whole audit is a comparison between location pages, so reaching four of your eleven branches would produce a confident report about a third of your estate, which is worse than no report.
