Sorted by how much they impact your visibility and conversion. All are fixable.

1

### Site doesn't use HTTPS

Critical
⚠ Cutting Corner's site runs on http:// — not encrypted. Visitors see "Not secure" in the address bar (Chrome, Safari, Firefox all warn). Google has ranked HTTP pages lower since 2014 and warns in search results. Contact forms and email addresses become insecure.
✓ We move the site to HTTPS via Let's Encrypt — automatically enabled and free. All links and forms become secure from day one.
2

### No structured data (JSON-LD schema.org)

High
⚠ Site is missing schema.org markup. No LocalBusiness, no opening hours or star ratings in Google's knowledge graphs. You miss Rich Results, Maps connections and the chance to appear in Google's local 3-pack.
✓ Complete JSON-LD: LocalBusiness/Service schema with opening hours, address, phone, areaServed; FAQPage schema on the FAQ page; BreadcrumbList on deeper pages; AggregateRating for your Google rating.
3

### Thin content: only 9 pages in sitemap

High
⚠ Your sitemap lists 9 pages. Google favours sites with deep, topical content. Competitors with 30-100 pages (services × locations × FAQ) win the searches.
✓ 20+ content-rich pages: deep service pages (500-800 words each), location pages per region you serve, FAQ, case studies and about. Written for keywords your customers actually search for.
4

### Low domain authority (DR 0.0/10)

High
⚠ Domain Rank 0.0/10 means Google has no strong signal that your site is trustworthy. You compete against local rivals with DR 2-4, who win the searches accordingly.
✓ Systematic link-building: industry directory submissions, local press mentions, partner links, guest posts and PR. Target: DR 3+ within 6 months.
