62/100
Grade C
-11 vs avg
- Harbor Baking Co. scores 62/100 · sitting 21 points behind Hawthorne Bread & Cake (83/100) and -11 below the 73 industry average across 6 regional competitors.
- Harbor Baking Co.'s website has your address and hours buried in text that Google likely can't connect to the searches your customers are actually typing.
Biggest Opportunity
- 'Made with harbor baking' plus your Portland location is wide open
- you already use the phrase on your site and no competitor appears to claim it
Biggest Risk
- If a nearby Portland bakery uses clear city and category words on their site, they will show up first...
- and right now you don't

Email Authentication
Google and Yahoo require SPF + DKIM + DMARC for any domain that sends bulk email (Feb 2024 mandate).
Without these, transactional and marketing messages risk landing in spam — and attackers can spoof your domain to phish customers.
-
No sender-impersonation protectionWithout an SPF record, mail servers can't tell which servers are allowed to send for you. Ask your email provider to publish one — most can do it in a few minutes.
-
Outgoing email is not signedYour emails leave without a signature, so Gmail and Yahoo can't tell whether they were forged or modified in transit. Ask your email provider to turn on DKIM signing.
-
No spoof-blocking policyNothing tells mail servers what to do when someone forges your domain. Ask your email provider to turn on DMARC — required by Gmail and Yahoo for any business that emails customers.
AI Search Readiness
ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews now answer roughly 1 in 4 buyer queries before a click reaches your site.
If AI tools can't crawl, parse, or cite your content, you lose top-funnel traffic to competitors who optimized for it.
-
ChatGPT and Claude can read your siteYour site lets 4 of 4 AI assistants in. Keep it that way — they need access to recommend you when buyers ask.
-
Business details only partly machine-readableSome of your business info is labeled for AI tools, but your address and service area are missing. Ask your web person to add the local-business labeling so AI tools can answer 'where' questions about you.
-
No AI-discovery file yetA simple plain-text file on your website telling AI tools what you do, who you serve, and where you operate. New best practice — early movers will be cited more often.
-
Pages are partly readable by AISome of your text is hidden inside interactive elements that AI tools can't read. Ask your web person to make sure your main service descriptions are in plain text on the page.
-
We haven't measured your AI mentions yetNext analysis cycle, we'll ask ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI a set of buyer-style questions and count how often they recommend you.
