Month one went into the four pages that sell, the Google listing, and switching on Search Console and Analytics. They are why this report has numbers.
Ongoing checks run between reports. Counts appear once there is a run log.
Nothing here is an estimate. Each names the screen and day it was read.
| Figure | Value | Where it was read | Measured on |
|---|---|---|---|
| Profile interactions | 46 A six month total, March to August. Calls and website clicks account for all 46. | Google Business Profile, Performance panel | 27 Aug 2026 |
| Website clicks from the listing | 42 Same six month window, March to August. | Google Business Profile, Performance panel | 27 Aug 2026 |
| Phone calls from the listing | 4 Same six month window, March to August. | Google Business Profile, Performance panel | 27 Aug 2026 |
| Google reviews | 2 Both replied. The unreplied filter reads empty. | Google Business Profile, Reviews | 27 Aug 2026 |
| Services published on the listing | 19 Graduation catering is the nineteenth, still in Google's queue. | Google Business Profile, Services editor | 27 Aug 2026 |
| Depth of the four selling pages | 909 to 1007 words BBQ 909, Tailgates 934, MetLife 962, Corporate 1007. Below about 900 a page answers too few questions. | Live site, counted inside the page body | 28 Aug 2026 |
| Pages handed to search engines | 10 Each now carries the date it last changed. | Live sitemap.xml | 28 Aug 2026 |
| Pages Google has indexed | 5 of 10 Home, Tailgates, MetLife, Corporate and FAQ. Google's figure was last updated 20 August, so the five pages submitted on 27 August are not in it yet. | Search Console, Page indexing report | 29 Aug 2026 |
| Dead pages from the old site | 35 All from the old site, all returning nothing. They are why the not-indexed count looks large; none is a current page. | Search Console, Page indexing report | 29 Aug 2026 |
A hosting setting was refusing Google-Extended, GPTBot and ClaudeBot, the crawlers that read a site to answer questions in AI results. Found and removed on 27 August. All three can read the site now.

I will not take credit for a number unless I measured it before the work and after. Everything above says where it came from and the day I read it.
Two things are open. Both need you.
| Waiting on | Item | Since | What unblocks it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dan | A short interview about how you actually run a tailgate | 11 Aug 2026 | Twenty minutes on the phone unlocks what MetLife cannot say yet. |
| Dan | Asking past customers for reviews | 27 Aug 2026 | You sending the ask. Two reviews holds the listing back. |
This table gains a column every month; a year of it is the argument.
| Measure | AUG 2026 |
|---|---|
| Google reviewsAll answered, so this is a count and not a backlog | 2 |
| Services publishedOn the Google listing | 19 |
| Selling pages deep enough to rank900 to 1400 words; thin pages answer too little | 4 of 4 |
| Pages handed to search enginesThe list Google reads to find you | 10 |
| Pages Google has indexedNot in the index means not findable | 5 of 10 |
| Directory listingsBought only when a named directory is provably wrong or missing | Not purchased |
Next month adds its own column and this one stays exactly as it is. Once a figure is published here I never go back and change it, so what you saw last month is still what you see. Anything I could not measure says so rather than showing a zero.
Every number above can be checked without me.
