Prepared for Willow Madison
Executive Summary
Willow's Widgets is a handcrafted home decor business based in Santa Fe, NM. Your website is currently struggling with fundamental SEO and technical issues that are preventing qualified buyers from finding you.
The impact: You are losing approximately $2,800 - $4,200 per month in potential revenue due to poor search visibility. Your average order value is $95, but your repeat rate suggests lifetime customer value of ~$380. With better SEO, you could capture an additional 8-12 qualified customers monthly.

I audited 6 key categories that determine search visibility. Here is how each one scored.
No XML sitemap. Robots.txt blocking CSS. No canonical tags. Redirect chains on 3 pages.
LCP at 4.8s. Unoptimized hero images across all pages. No lazy loading.
Thin service pages (200-300 words). No blog. Duplicate title tags on 4 pages.
No LocalBusiness schema. No FAQ markup. No product schema. Zero rich results.
Not fully responsive. Primary CTA below the fold. CLS issues on product pages.

Key Findings
Missing XML Sitemap
No sitemap.xml found. Google is crawling blind. Only 4 of 18 pages are indexed.
No LocalBusiness Schema
Google cannot parse business details for local pack placement. Missing NAP markup entirely.
No SSL Certificate
Site loads over HTTP. Kills trust signals and search rankings. Chrome shows "Not Secure" warning.
Unoptimized Images (12 pages)
Hero images over 800KB. No WebP. No lazy loading. Adds ~3.2s to load time.
Thin Content on Service Pages
Key pages average 220 words. Google needs 1,500-2,500 words of authoritative content to rank.
Add FAQ Schema to Product Pages
FAQ content exists on 3 pages but has no markup. Quick win for rich results in search.
