docs(validation): beta audit batch 2026-08-15 — 8 reviewed runs

Reviewer disposition pass applied per locked process v1.0 (docs/operations/beta-audit-process.md):
- Each run: raw capture, findings.json, findings.md, REPORT-final.md (customer-facing), VALIDATION.md (reviewer dispositions)
- Normalized format false-positives (+1 prefix, #N vs Ste N, 8AM vs 8:00AM, 1800 scraper parse glitch)
- Material: 28 across batch (phone mismatches, NAP address conflicts, hours divergences, missing LocalBusiness schema, missing website)
- Verification-pending items separated from material findings; no surface presented without evidence

## Findings
### Finding #1: Phone number inconsistent across 2 surface(s)
- **Severity:** 🟥 Immediate
- **Category:** Digital Identity
- **Recommendation:** Standardize phone format across all directories. GBP is authoritative.
- **Evidence:** ```json
{
"google": "(530) 291-1888",
"apple": "+1 (530) 344-0290",
"website": "551-0858478"
}
```
### Finding #2: Address inconsistent across 1 surface(s)
- **Severity:** 🟥 Immediate
- **Category:** Digital Identity
- **Recommendation:** Standardize exact address format. GBP address is authoritative.
- **Evidence:** ```json
{
"google": "6400 Pleasant Valley Rd, El Dorado, CA 95623",
"apple": "493 Pleasant Valley Rd, Ste 110, Diamond Springs, CA 95619"
}
```
### Finding #3: Hours mismatch on 4 day(s) — GBP is authoritative
- **Severity:** 🟥 Immediate
- **Category:** Google Business
- **Recommendation:** Correct hours on non-GBP surfaces to match GBP. Mismatched hours cause customer complaints and trust loss.
- **Evidence:** ```json
[
{
"day": "monday",
"google": "8 AM-5 PM",
"apple_maps": "8:00 AM-5:00 PM"
},
{
"day": "tuesday",
"google": "8 AM-5 PM",
"apple_maps": "8:00 AM-5:00 PM"
},
{
"day": "wednesday",
"google": "8 AM-5 PM",
"apple_maps": "8:00 AM-5:00 PM"
},
{
"day": "thursday",
"google": "8 AM-5 PM",
"apple_maps": "8:00 AM-5:00 PM"
}
]
```
### Finding #4: Average rating 3.3 — below 4.0 threshold
- **Severity:** 🟥 Immediate
- **Category:** Reviews
- **Recommendation:** Address negative reviews, request new reviews from satisfied customers. Below 4.0 is a strong conversion blocker.
- **Evidence:** ```json
{
"average": 3.35,
"by_source": {
"google": 3.4,
"apple": 3.3
}
}
```
### Finding #5: Website URL inconsistent across 1 surface(s)
- **Severity:** 🟧 High
- **Category:** Digital Identity
- **Recommendation:** Use one canonical URL (prefer HTTPS, no www) across all directories.
- **Evidence:** ```json
{
"google": "https://www.diamondspringsdental.com/",
"apple": "http://www.diamondspringsdental.com"
}
```
### Finding #6: No JSON-LD schema found on website
- **Severity:** 🟧 High
- **Category:** Technical SEO
- **Recommendation:** Add LocalBusiness/BeautySalon JSON-LD schema. Critical for rich results and local ranking.
- **Evidence:** ```json
{
"url": "https://www.diamondspringsdental.com/",
"has_jsonld": false
}
```
### Finding #7: Review count varies by 21 across surfaces
- **Severity:** 🟨 Medium
- **Category:** Reviews
- **Recommendation:** Large review count gaps suggest some surfaces have stale or merged data. Verify listing ownership.
- **Evidence:** ```json
{
"google": 49,
"apple": 28
}
```
### Finding #8: Cannot determine review recency — no dates available in samples
- **Severity:** 🟨 Medium
- **Category:** Reviews
- **Recommendation:** Review date data is not available from current surfaces. Monitor via GBP dashboard directly.
- **Evidence:** ```json
{
"sources_with_dates": []
}
```
### Finding #9: Category varies across surfaces: dental clinic, health care
- **Severity:** 🟨 Medium
- **Category:** Digital Identity
- **Recommendation:** Align primary category across all directories. GBP primary category is the ranking driver.
- **Evidence:** ```json
{
"google": "dental clinic",
"apple": "health care"
}
```
### Finding #10: Only 0% of sample reviews mention specific services or practitioners
- **Severity:** 🟩 Enhancement
- **Category:** Reviews
- **Recommendation:** Encourage detailed reviews mentioning services and staff. Specific reviews rank higher and convert better.
- **Evidence:** ```json
{
"sample_size": 3,
"specific_count": 0
}
```
### Finding #11: Price level not set on GBP or Apple Maps
- **Severity:** 🟩 Enhancement
- **Category:** Content
- **Recommendation:** Set price level ($$$$$) on GBP. Helps users self-select and improves relevance.
