Local Visibility Audit

How Customers See Your Business Online

Prepared for Wixom Nails · 1553 N Wixom Rd, Wixom, MI 48393 October 08, 2026 By Noah Woods · Walled Lake Web Co
Here's the test we ran. When someone looks a business up on Google and it pops right up on the map — website, phone number, ratings, reviews, services, even booking right there — and the owner is responding to their good reviews — that customer knows they'll be in good hands. We looked up Wixom Nails through that exact lens. This report shows what your customers see — and what's missing.

Google Business Profile

Section 1 of 4

We ran the 10-second test: searched your name and 'nail salon near me' from Wixom and Walled Lake, the way a new customer does. Here's what came back.

✓

Business is findable by name

Searching 'Wixom Nails Wixom MI' returns your listings — address 1553 N Wixom Rd and phone (248) 669-0938 are consistent across Yelp, Loc8NearMe and MapQuest. The foundation is there.

✗

The page you own ranks below pages you don't

Your free Google Sites page competes for your own name against at least six directory pages you cannot edit: Yelp, Loc8NearMe, BestProsInTown, MapQuest, Atly and a-better-place.com. Checked live October 8, 2026.

Your Website

Section 2 of 4

A customer who taps through from Google lands on your current page. We loaded it on a phone-sized browser on October 8, 2026. Here is that exact experience.

!

Website exists

You have a free Google Sites page at sites.google.com/view/wixom-nails/home — not a domain you own. There is no wixomnails.com. A sites.google.com address reads as temporary to customers and ranks weaker than an owned domain.

✗

The browser tab says 'Home'

The page title is literally the word 'Home' — verified in the page source. That is the text Google can use as your headline and the text that shows in a browser tab or a shared link. It should say 'Wixom Nails — Nail Salon in Wixom, MI'.

✗

Click-to-call button

Your phone number sits on the page as plain text — '(248) 669- 0938', with a stray space in the middle — and there is not a single tappable phone link anywhere in the page source. On a phone, a customer has to retype your number by hand. That is where calls die.

✓

Looks right on a phone

The page carries a proper mobile viewport tag and reflows on a phone — Google Sites gets that part right for free.

✓

Loads fast

Loaded in roughly 0.35 seconds (143 KB) from a Michigan connection on October 8, 2026. Speed is not your problem.

✓

Your full price menu is already written

Acrylic full set $35, dipping $50, Diamond pedicure $55, waxing, nail art $10-50 — it's all there and it's good. It is just sitting on a page that doesn't look like a business owns it.

Reviews & Reputation

Section 3 of 4

Reviews are the first thing a new customer reads — and the thing almost no owner touches afterward. This is where the biggest easy win is.

✓

People name your tech in their reviews

Connie is praised by name in 12 separate Yelp reviews (per the Yelp listing for Wixom Nails, Oct 2026). That is the kind of loyalty most salons can't buy.

How Your Competitors Look in the Same Search

Section 4 of 4

The same 'nail salon Wixom MI' search puts you shoulder to shoulder with these two. Both were checked live on October 8, 2026.

4G Nails & Spa — Wixom

  • Owns its domain: fourgnailsandspa.com — loads live, HTTP 200 verified
  • Site leads with its own phone, (248) 926-0614, and its service list
  • A review-aggregator profile for them cites 146 reviews (reviews.birdeye.com, Oct 2026)

Alena Nails & Spa — Wixom

  • Owns its domain: alenanailsandspa.com — loads live, HTTP 200 verified
  • Site is built as a real storefront: services, staff, contact form
  • Note: a second domain they advertise, alenanailspawixom.com, does not resolve at all — so even they have a loose end

What we'd fix first

  1. {'title': 'A real website on a domain you own', 'detail': "wixomnails.com, built in 48 hours, mobile-first, with your existing price menu, a tap-to-call button that actually works, and a title tag that says who you are instead of 'Home'."}
  2. {'title': 'Make the phone tappable', 'detail': 'This is the single cheapest fix on the list. Right now every mobile customer has to memorize and retype your number.'}
  3. {'title': 'Clean up and own the Google profile', 'detail': 'Hours by day, your own photos organized, services and prices listed, website and call links wired — so your page outranks the six directories trading on your name.'}
  4. {'title': 'Start answering reviews — especially the good ones', 'detail': "Twelve people wrote Connie's name in a review. Thank them publicly. Then address the low ones calmly. We draft these for you every month if you want it handled."}

Every line above came from loading your actual page and your actual listings on October 8, 2026 — nothing automated, nothing invented. Anything flagged CHECK is something we'd confirm with you on the phone rather than guess at. Fifteen minutes and I'll walk you through it.

Most of what's above gets fixed with a one-page site built around what's already working for you — typically $750–1,500 once, yours outright, or $99 to start + $149/mo if you'd rather I just keep it running and keep your Google profile worked every month. But before any of that, I'd like to actually understand Wixom Nails a bit — what's working, what's not, and whether this is even worth your time to fix.
