The chart shows 30 of 35 sites, picked at random. Scores range from 32 to 95, average 56. 1 of 35 reached 90. Sites we have built score 98, 98, 97, 94, 93, 91.
Lighthouse 12, mobile, default throttling, one site at a time. 35 Hills businesses: the ones that show up on Google for the searches below, plus Hills wineries from a seeded random sample of the directory. Lab scores, not real-user data. Sites are never named.

Then what Google puts on page one. Orange posts are businesses on their own website. The rest are guides, portals, directories and social profiles.
The portals take most of page one. Two local agencies make it on their own sites.

Close variants Google counts together are counted once, and towns that share a name with a business or a bigger place elsewhere are left out. Page one: one search per type, from Adelaide, November 2026. Businesses are never named.
We tested 35 Hills business websites on a mid-range phone, from cellar doors and cafés to landscapers and electricians. Only one scored 90 for speed. Half took longer than 9.0 seconds to show their main content, and 14 took longer than 10.
Sites that score 90 or more on a phone. You see the score on every preview before anything goes live.
On a phone, 8 of the 27 homepages we checked have no tap-to-call link. For a plumber, a landscaper or a restaurant taking bookings, the phone number is the whole point of the visit.
Call, directions and book on the first screen, one tap each, wherever someone lands on the site.
Search for accommodation in the Hills and page one is guides, booking sites and listings. Not one stay ranks on its own site, so the booking, and the commission, go elsewhere.
A stay's own site that can rank, with rooms, rates and direct booking marked up for Google, so guests can book you without a middleman.
Hahndorf sells to day-trippers, the cellar doors to Adelaide on a Sunday, and Mount Barker's trades to the families moving in. Each needs a different kind of site.
Restaurants, cafés and stays that live on visitors. Menus, hours and booking on the first screen, so the trip is planned on your site, not a guide's.
Tastings, the club, the shop. We keep your platform and every member, and put a fast front end on it.
