Visibility is the share of the neighbourhood where Google actually shows the restaurant. The remaining metrics explain where that number comes from.

What has changed since we began.

A plain-English comparison, always anchored to the baseline for the current keyword set (Week 0). This is the piece an owner can understand and share without reading a technical report.

Baseline → current

Visibility is up 56.3 points since Week 0.

The restaurant is now visible at 188 of 245 locations. The Google actions below show whether that visibility is creating customer intent. Revenue is only reported when it can be tied to orders.

04 · What it means

Customers, not just rankings.

These are real actions people took on the business profile in the last 28 days. They are leading indicators. Revenue is only claimed when it can be tied to orders or POS data.

Correction. Corrected on September 9, 2026. The figures first published here counted a Google reporting gap as lost demand: our ingestion stored a zero for every day Google had not yet reported, and the trailing window carried 17 of 28 reporting days for calls against a complete baseline window. The comparison is now made per reporting day, and the day counts are shown alongside each figure. The originally published numbers are kept in the record below. The missing days fall evenly across all seven weekdays, 2 or 3 of every 4, so the per-day rate is not skewed by which days are absent. No ranking, review or profile-health figure was affected.

Read this carefully. This store opened on June 21, 2026, and its Week 0 window runs June 21 to July 18, so the baseline is a brand-new profile's first four weeks. A new profile starts near zero and grows as Google learns it exists, which means part of the rise since is the store establishing itself, not only our work. The movement is reported as ours because the comparison window now sits entirely inside the engagement, and it should be read with that in mind.

07 · Weekly record

Every week tells the next part of the story.

The three latest updates stay open. Earlier weeks move to a compact archive, so this record keeps growing without rewriting history.

Eighth grid scan completed across the same 5 keywords and 245 measured points.

Coverage widened again week over week: 186 of 245 points ranked last week against 188 today, lifting Google visibility from 75.9% to 76.7%. Top-3 points grew from 36 to 38. Average rank eased from 8.22 to 8.33 because the newly ranked points landed lower in the pack. Over the past month the footprint has grown substantially: 156 of 245 points ranked four weeks ago against 188 today, visibility moving from 63.7% to 76.7% and top-10 points from 115 to 138. Average rank moved from 7.80 to 8.33 across that same stretch, which is the expected trade when a business ranks in 32 more places than it did a month ago. Mac and cheese near me is the strongest term, averaging 6.20 with 20 of 49 points in the top 3, followed by halal chicken tenders near me at 6.38. Mozzarella sticks near me remains the weakest footprint, ranked in 29 of 49 points. Profile health improved from 98.44 to 99.01 out of 100, its highest reading so far, helped by a Google post going out 3 days before the audit against a 7-day target. No optimization tasks are currently open. Photos remain the largest known gap: 2 photos on the profile, none added in the last 30 days, and no cover or logo photo set. These factors sit outside the scored set this run, so they do not pull the health score down, but they are real and they are visible to customers. The live Google total rose from 263 to 294 reviews at 4.8 stars, with the reply rate improving from 98.4% to 98.6%. The 28-day comparison window now sits entirely inside the engagement, so these Google profile actions are reported as ours from this week. Measured per reporting day against the Week 0 baseline, profile views are up 268%, direction requests 314%, calls 242% and website clicks 131%, from a very low starting base. Coverage is uneven, 27 of 28 days reported for views against 17 for calls, so all four are compared per reporting day rather than on totals. One caveat sits beside these figures on the page: the store opened on June 21, the first day of its baseline window, so part of this rise is a new profile establishing itself and not only our work. First published as inherited; changed on September 9, 2026, with the original wording kept in the record.

Seventh grid scan completed across the same 5 keywords and 245 measured points.

Coverage kept widening over the past month: 158 of 245 points ranked four weeks ago against 186 today, Google visibility moving from 64.5% to 75.9%. Average rank held close to flat, 8.06 to 8.22, as the newly ranked points landed lower in the pack. Week over week, coverage grew from 183 to 186 ranked points while average rank eased slightly from 8.19 to 8.22. Mac and cheese near me and halal chicken tenders near me remain the strongest terms, both averaging in the low 6s across the grid. Profile health held near its ceiling, easing from 99.01 to 98.44 out of 100. No optimization tasks are currently open; the total photo count (2) and missing cover and logo photos remain the biggest known gaps, though they fall outside the scored factor set this run. The live Google total nearly quadrupled over the past month, from 69 to 263 reviews, still at 4.8 stars, with the reply rate at 98.4%. Google profile actions over the trailing 28 days are still measured against a window that overlaps the pre-onboarding period, so the sharp increases there (views, directions, website clicks and calls all up against the prior period) are inherited and are not claimed as ours.

Sixth grid scan completed across the same 5 keywords and 245 measured points.

Coverage widened sharply over the past month: 82 of 245 points ranked a month ago against 183 today, Google visibility moving from 33.5% to 74.7%. Week over week, coverage grew from 179 to 183 ranked points, while average rank eased from 7.77 to 8.19 as newly ranked points entered lower in the pack. Halal chicken tenders near me and mac and cheese near me are the strongest terms, both averaging just above rank 6 across the grid. Profile health rose from 89.52 a month ago to 99.01 out of 100. Synced Google reviews grew from 29 a month ago to 331 and the live Google total reached 259 reviews at 4.8 stars, with the reply rate at 97.5%. Google profile actions over the trailing 28 days are still measured against a window that overlaps the pre-onboarding period, so the sharp increases there (views, directions, website clicks and calls all up against the prior period) are inherited and are not claimed as ours.
