Confidential Audit — Prepared for ZAT Graphics, Brownsburg IN

Twenty‑two years of five‑star trust. A website quietly working against it.

We looked at zatgraphics.com the way an actual customer — and Google — sees it. Six specific things are costing you calls, referrals, and rankings you've already earned the hard way.

What ZAT has already earned

The reputation is real. The website doesn't say so.

Every number below comes from public listings — Yelp, the Chamber of Commerce, Nicelocal, BBB. None of it came from your own homepage.

Six things we found — all verified, all fixable

The gap between how good you are and how you show up online.

Nothing here is a guess. Every item below is something we pulled directly from your live site's code and search presence.

01

Every social share shows raw code instead of your business

When a customer shares zatgraphics.com — in a Facebook group, a group text, a community post — this is what's supposed to load automatically as the preview card. Right now, it's broken.

[et_pb_section fb_built="1" admin_label="Header" _builder_version="4.16" background_image="https://zatgraphics.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/silk-screen-shirt-...

That's raw Divi page-builder shortcode leaking into your Open Graph and Twitter description tags, verbatim, from your live site. It means every referral share — your single best marketing channel for a word-of-mouth business — currently looks broken to the person you're relying on to vouch for you.

Highest-priority fix
02

Your own city is missing from your search title

This is the exact title tag Google reads for zatgraphics.com. Notice what's not in it.

Google search result — as it appears today
zatgraphics.com
Custom Printing, Embroidery, and Sign Service | ZAT Graphics
Family-owned shop offering signs, banners, embroidery, and silk screening... no city, no state, anywhere in the title

When someone searches "sign shop Brownsburg" or "embroidery Avon," Google leans heavily on what's literally written in the title tag. Yours never mentions Brownsburg, Indianapolis, or Hendricks County — even though nearly every job you take comes from within twenty minutes of your shop.

Local search fix
03

Google has no way to show your stars

Structured data is what lets Google display star ratings directly in search results, before a customer even clicks. Your site doesn't send it.

What a rich search result can look like
Business with review schema★★★★★ shown in results
zatgraphics.com, currentlyNo stars, no schema

You have the reviews — 24 and counting, all five-star. Your site's code just never tells Google that. Adding LocalBusiness and review markup is what turns "another blue link" into a listing with gold stars sitting right on top of it.

Click-through fix
04

The copy needs a proofread

Small, but it's the kind of thing a careful customer notices — from a shop whose entire pitch is attention to detail.

About section — live text
"...highest quality apparel, backpacks, mugs, , name tags, tote bags, and other items..."

A stray double comma, a couple of run-on sentences elsewhere in the same section — nothing dramatic on its own, but it's live on the page making the first impression for every new visitor. Twenty minutes of editing fixes it permanently.

Credibility fix
05

Phone visitors can't pinch-to-zoom

The mobile viewport is set to block zoom entirely — a real accessibility gap, not a style choice.

Mobile viewport setting
maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0

More than half of your visitors are on a phone. Blocking zoom makes fine print — service details, pricing notes, addresses — harder to read for exactly the people trying hardest to read them. It's a one-line fix with real accessibility upside.

Accessibility fix
06

Two decades of proof, almost none of it on your homepage

The reviews exist. They're just scattered everywhere except the one page trying to convert a stranger into a customer.

Where your reviews currently live
Yelp, BBB, Nicelocal, Chamber of Commerce24+ reviews
zatgraphics.com homepage1–2 shown

You've earned two decades of trust in this community. A rebuild pulls that proof onto the page that actually needs it — real testimonials, aggregate rating, the works — instead of leaving it scattered across five directories a customer has to go find themselves.

Conversion fix
Translated into business terms

None of this is cosmetic. Each one is a lever on revenue.

01

Missed local searches

Every "sign shop near me" and "embroidery Brownsburg" search leans on your title tag — and yours doesn't mention where you are.

02

Broken referrals

Word-of-mouth is your best channel. Right now every share of your own site shows raw code instead of your name.

03

Invisible trust

A customer can't see your stars before they click. On mobile, they can barely read the page once they land.
