Does your website look trustworthy to Google?
Three signals Google and customers weigh: how old your domain is, how long you've been on the web, and whether your security is up to standard.

Running a Google-grade security scan (~90s)...
Trust signals are table stakes. Rankings are the game.
A trustworthy site still needs to rank. See exactly where you stand in the Google Map Pack across your service area.
Domain age comes from the domain registry (RDAP). Web history is the first snapshot on the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. Security is a live grade from Qualys SSL Labs (the industry standard), which takes about 90 seconds and is then saved so re-checks are instant. Public data sources occasionally rate-limit; when one is momentarily unavailable that card says so honestly rather than guessing.
Website trust FAQ
Why does domain age matter?
An older, continuously-registered domain is a mild trust signal - it's harder to fake a decade of history. It's not a ranking silver bullet, but a brand-new domain has more to prove.
What's a good SSL grade?
A or A+ is what you want. B means fixable weaknesses; C or lower (or "T"/"F") means visitors may see security warnings that scare off customers and hurt trust. The grade comes live from Qualys SSL Labs.
Why does the security scan take ~90 seconds?
SSL Labs runs a thorough real handshake test against your server (protocols, ciphers, certificate chain). We poll it live and save the result, so your next check is instant.
Does this affect my Google Maps ranking?
Trust and security are foundational, but Map Pack ranking is driven by proximity, relevance and prominence. See where you actually rank with the Map Rank Check.
