CriticalThe site is not served over HTTPSBrowsers mark it as not secure, and it is a ranking signal in its own right.
Worth fixingNo XML sitemap foundSearch engines have to discover every page by following links. On a small site that is survivable; on a large one it is not.
Worth fixingNo structured data on the homepageNothing tells a search engine or an assistant what this business is, where it is, or what it does — in machine-readable terms.
Worth fixingNo mobile viewport tagThe page is not telling phones how to lay itself out. Most local searches happen on one.
Worth fixingVery little published contentThe homepage carries 168 words and the site links to no blog, news or insights section. There is little here for a search engine to match, or for an assistant to quote.
