Google Business Profile audit: see what is missing and who ranks above you
A Google Business Profile audit checks your listing for gaps and shows how it performs. Reputant reads your connected profile, marks each core field complete or missing, records where you rank for every keyword you track, and puts your calls, direction requests and bookings next to it.

Most profiles are not wrong, they are unfinished. A missing description or a blank website field does not raise an alarm anywhere, so it sits there while a competitor with a complete listing gets the call. You also cannot tell from your own phone who ranks above you, because Google shows you your own area and your own history.
Why the map matters
32%of what decides map pack rankings comes down to the Google Business Profile itself, the biggest single group of signals.

Profile completeness
A Google Business Profile audit that names the gap
The checklist reads your live profile, so it shows what Google has, not what you remember entering. A complete field shows its value. A missing one tells you where to add it. The count at the top makes it easy to see when you are finished.
- Business name, address, phone, website, hours, primary category and description
- Your name, address and phone shown together so a mismatch stands out
- Your hours by day and the photos on the listing
- Refresh at any time after you make a change
