Frequently asked questions

Straight answers about the flagship Florida dataset—what it is, how fresh it is, and how to use it next to city × industry pages and vertical reports.

What is the Florida Web Performance Index?▾

It is Structure1 Digital’s public benchmark layer for Florida service businesses: mapped locations, mobile PageSpeed-style scores, approximate LCP load times, review signals, and observable ad activity—drawn from the same measurement stack we use in client work. It is a large sample of real sites, not a census of every Florida business.

How often does the Florida index refresh?▾

Underlying businesses and scans update in batches as we add coverage and re-run tests. The “freshness” strip on this page summarizes recent activity; individual businesses may lag behind your latest deploy until the next successful crawl. For methodology on thresholds and match confidence, see the Research methodology page.

Does a low mobile score guarantee poor Google rankings?▾

No single lab metric guarantees a position. Google uses many signals; page experience—including speed and Core Web Vitals—can influence both organic and paid efficiency. The index is best used to compare yourself to local peers and to prioritize technical work, not as a definitive ranking verdict.

What does “medium+ website match confidence” mean?▾

We attach website-derived fields only when our pipeline’s match between a business listing and a live site meets at least a medium confidence bar (high for stricter exports). That avoids polluting averages with wrong-site attributions. Totals labeled medium+ are the appropriate denominator for headline mobile statistics on this page.

How do city × industry pages relate to this map?▾

City × industry benchmark URLs slice the same dataset geographically and by trade (for example, HVAC in Tampa). We publish them when local sample tiers support useful comparisons—see each page’s sample disclaimer. The statewide map and industry reports anchor those local pages back to Florida-wide context.

Data Source

3,586,173 tracked Florida businesses with mappable locations and 2,487,085 PageSpeed-enriched records (medium+ website match confidence).

Public website-derived signal metrics are filtered by match confidence (medium+ baseline; high for premium exports).

Metrics collected

Mobile PageSpeed score, approximate Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) load time in seconds, Google review count and rating (when available), and whether the business appears to be running ads.

How to read this

LCP approximates how long it takes the main content to load on mobile. Lower is better (fast green clusters), higher is worse (slow red clusters). Mobile score is a 0–100 quality signal from Google's Lighthouse engine.

Update cadence

Scans are refreshed in batches as new businesses are added and existing sites are re-tested. Results represent a snapshot in time and may lag behind very recent site changes.

Why We Built This Research

Florida businesses spend heavily on websites, SEO, and advertising, but most never see how their actual website performance compares to the market around them. We built this research to create a clearer picture of how real business websites perform across industries, cities, and local markets throughout Florida.

The goal is to benchmark mobile performance, identify hidden inefficiencies, and make website quality easier to understand in practical business terms. Structure1 Digital uses this research to help businesses, marketing agencies, and startups rank more organically, lower ad costs, and better understand how speed, Core Web Vitals, and technical quality affect visibility, conversions, and user experience.

This project starts in Florida, with the long-term goal of expanding gradually up the East Coast and into additional regional markets over time while continuing to share practical research that helps improve the web overall.
