This comparison is a published, immutable snapshot. Scores evaluate observable digital search signals (local visibility, website accessibility, service content, and reviews) and do not evaluate physical craftsmanship, licensing, or safety.

Methodology Factor Weights:
  • Local Visibility (20%): Verified local-search position and explicitly observed category, location, and service-area relevance.
  • Local Profile (15%): Measured completeness of public local-profile information.
  • Reviews (15%): Observed public rating, review volume, and review recency when measured.
  • Technical SEO (20%): Explicitly measured website accessibility, metadata, indexability, and technical checks.
  • Content Coverage (15%): Detected relevant service, local, and supporting content within the sampled website.
  • Entity Consistency (15%): Explicit cross-source consistency checks and detected business identity information.
Scoring Rules:
  • Scores describe observable digital signals, not workmanship, customer service, licensing, safety, or business quality.
  • Each factor is the arithmetic mean of its measured signals on a 0–100 scale. Signal coverage is shown separately; absent or unavailable signals are never zeroes.
  • The overall score is the weighted mean of all six factors and is unavailable until every factor has at least one measured signal. Factor coverage can differ across businesses.
  • Only attributable observations at or before the fixed asOf date, no more than 90 days old, and not expired at asOf are scored. The latest observation for a signal controls its availability.
  • Boolean checks score 100 for true and 0 for false. Rating scores rating / 5 Γ— 100. Review volume scores min(100, log10(count + 1) / 3 Γ— 100), a disclosed saturation benchmark of 999 reviews, not a quality assessment.
  • Review recency scores exp(-days / 180) Γ— 100. Verified local-search rank scores max(0, 1 - (rank - 1) / 20) Γ— 100; discovery-list order is never a search rank.
  • Measured percentages are used directly. Broken-link count scores 100 only for an explicitly measured zero, otherwise 0. Scores and statistics round to two decimals.
  • Market statistics exclude unavailable values. Midrank percentile = 100 Γ— (number below + half the number tied) / measured sample size; an all-tied sample is at the 50th percentile.
  • Opportunities describe measured gaps, not estimated traffic or revenue. Missing observations never create an opportunity. Raw observations, source references, and dates remain visible.
  • Observed Google position is the 1-based order returned by the configured Google Places text search for a specific query, location, and observation time. It is not a universal or permanent Google rank. SEOuP stores Place IDs and its own audit observations; Google listing fields are a short-lived display cache with required attribution.
