What the public-page check reads
You type a website. We open the public homepage and list what is on it. Found or missing. That list is the first screen. The emailed report comes after.
The check fetches public HTML. It does not log into Google, ChatGPT, or your analytics. If the page will not open from our side, you can still send an email. A person will open the site.
The rows on the screen
- Page title. The text in the title tag.
- Main headline. The first H1 we can read.
- Meta description. The description tag, when it is present.
- Phone on the page. A tel link, or a phone number written in the HTML.
- Email on the page. A mailto link.
- Structured data. JSON-LD blocks, and the types they name.
- Contact path. A link that looks like contact or get-in-touch.
- About path. A link that looks like about.
- Canonical URL. The canonical link, when it is present.
Those are the fields. We do not turn them into a score. We do not invent a Google rank.
Why those fields
A customer who lands on the homepage needs a name, a way to call, and a way to write. Search needs a title and a headline it can quote. Machines that read the page look for structured data. Google's own introduction to that markup is Introduction to structured data markup in Google Search.
If the homepage hides the phone, or has no contact path, the Maps card and the site start to disagree. Hours missing on Maps is a listing problem. A homepage that also hides how to reach you is a site problem. Both can be true on the same business.
What this screen does not do
It does not crawl the whole site. It does not score backlinks. It does not open Google Business Profile as you. The listing look is a human step. That step is described in the 24-hour listing report.
