## Findings
|
|
|
|
### Finding 1: Phone number inconsistent across directories
|
|
|
|
**Observation:**
|
|
Google lists **(530) 291-1888**. Apple lists **+1 (530) 344-0290**. Website lists **551-0858478**.
|
|
|
|
**Impact:**
|
|
Customers reaching the business through a single directory may call a disconnected or wrong number. Inconsistent NAP (name-address-phone) signals reduce local search ranking across all surfaces.
|
|
|
|
**Recommendation:**
|
|
Confirm the correct primary number, then update every directory to match. Keep the verified number identical across Google, Apple, and the website.
|

|
### Finding 2: Address inconsistent across directories
|
|
|
|
**Observation:**
|
|
Google lists “6400 Pleasant Valley Rd, El Dorado, CA 95623”. Apple Maps lists “493 Pleasant Valley Rd, Ste 110, Diamond Springs, CA 95619”.
|
|
|
|
**Impact:**
|
|
Conflicting addresses split local search signals and can send customers or service vehicles to the wrong location. NAP consistency is a core local-ranking factor.
|
|
|
|
**Recommendation:**
|
|
Confirm the canonical street address (including unit) with the business, then align Google and Apple to the same string.
|

|
### Finding 3: Average rating 3.3 — below 4.0 threshold
|
|
|
|
**Observation:**
|
|
Blended average is **3.35** (Google 3.4, Apple 3.3) — below the 4.0 trust threshold.
|
|
|
|
**Impact:**
|
|
A sub-4.0 average is below the trust threshold for most local verticals and suppresses click-through in the local pack regardless of review volume.
|
|
|
|
**Recommendation:**
|
|
Review the lower-rated reviews for recurring service issues; respond publicly to negative reviews and prioritize the service gaps they describe.
|

|
|
|
### Finding 4: No JSON-LD schema found on website
|
|
|
|
**Observation:**
|
|
{"url": "https://www.diamondspringsdental.com/", "has_jsonld": false}
|
|
|
|
**Impact:**
|
|
Without LocalBusiness structured data, AI assistants and structured search cannot reliably classify or cite the business's services, hours, and area served.
|
|
|
|
**Recommendation:**
|
|
Add LocalBusiness JSON-LD (Dentist/Plumber/Contractor type) with name, address, phone, hours, and areaServed.
