How to read this report: Findings come from a quick verified audit of
chiltonautobody.com
(homepage HTML, FAQ URL, robots.txt, page sitemap). We do not invent rankings, traffic, keyword volumes, competitor positions, or Lighthouse scores. Unverified items are marked Opportunity.
Executive summary
The live site already has solid multi-location bones: unique titles/meta on the home page, robots + Yoast sitemap, Organization / LocalBusiness / Service JSON-LD on home, and a real FAQ URL with FAQPage schema. The prototype improves IA (nav order matching live mega menu), dedicated service / certification / partner pages, and clearer booking paths — without claiming SERP wins.
