We counted just over 8,000 Padova businesses and checked their websites in October 2026. Of these, just over 6,000 list a website, but about 4 businesses in 10 have no working website.

Here the numbers are told the way people using these sites experience them: a customer looking for a restaurant on their phone, a tourist checking a shop's opening hours, someone asking an AI assistant for a dentist nearby. The detailed technical data is further down.
How many businesses there are, in which sectors, and how many have a website that actually opens.
The 8,174 businesses we counted, by sector. The three largest: restaurants (11.2%), professional services (8.5%), and fashion and beauty (8.3%).
The count comes from Overture Maps, an open dataset of places: these are the businesses a customer finds on a map, not the entries of the official business register.
Of 8,174 businesses, 6,445 (78.8%) list a website and 4,627 (56.6%) have one that works.
The other 1,818 that list a website send customers to an address that does not answer, or to a social profile, a booking site or a delivery platform instead of a website. Someone tapping the link on a map gets an error, or a page that is not the business's own.
The share of businesses with a working website is in line with the average of the 7 cities in Italy we have scanned so far, which is 56.6%.
Of the 1,818 businesses that list a website we could not open, 818 (45%) point to a domain or server that does not answer, 363 (20%) open an error page, 310 (17.1%) have a site whose bot protection stopped our tool, 202 (11.1%) list a social profile or a platform page instead of a website, and 125 (6.9%) fail to connect, on a network error or a timeout.
A domain that does not answer has usually expired or lost its hosting; an error page is often the address of a site that was rebuilt or closed, left behind on the map. Among the profiles and platforms listed instead of a website, the most common is Instagram (69). The 310 businesses with a protected site are a separate case: the server answers with a bot check page (status 403 or 202), so the site most likely opens for someone visiting it in a browser, but we could not audit it. That is a limit of the tool, not a broken site: counting them, the businesses with a working website would rise to at most 4,937, 60.4%.
The share of links to a domain that does not answer is lower than the average of the 7 cities in Italy we have scanned so far, which is 48.7%.
The share of businesses with a working website, sector by sector (sectors with at least 30 businesses). Best covered: creative and media, 77.4%. Least covered: bars and pubs, 23.1%.
A sector at the bottom of the list does not mean worse businesses: in some sectors customers book or order through a platform, and the business lists that instead of a website.
Against the average of the 7 cities in Italy we have scanned so far, 3 of 25 sectors are higher, 6 lower and 16 in line.

On the main page of 4,140 sites, the median scores are 65 out of 100 for performance (mean 64.4), 87 for accessibility (mean 85.4), 96 for best practices (mean 86.7), and 92 for SEO (mean 92).
Performance sits in the middle band (50 to 89): the page works, but on a phone with a slow mobile connection the wait is noticeable. Half the sites take more than 7.4 seconds to show their main content, the largest photo or block of text: above 4 seconds, the point where Google calls it poor. Accessibility needs work: many sites still have low contrast text, buttons without a name, or form fields a screen reader cannot read.
The median performance score is in line with the average of the 7 cities in Italy we have scanned so far, which is 66.
The basics that help Google find every page, show the right one, and read the business's details.
Of 4,377 working sites, 21.2% have no valid sitemap, 54.5% show no Search Console verification we can see, 32.3% have no meta description on the home page, and 24.9% do not state a canonical URL for the home page.
A sitemap is the list of pages a site hands to Google. Search Console is the free tool where the owner sees which searches the site appears for and whether Google finds errors. The meta description is the text under the title in search results: without one, Google picks its own. A canonical URL tells Google which version of a page to show when several copies exist.
The share of sites without a sitemap is in line with the average of the 7 cities in Italy we have scanned so far, which is 22.2%.
171 of 4,627 businesses with a working website (3.7%) have complete basic structured data: a LocalBusiness block and a WebSite block, both complete.
Structured data is a block hidden in the page that tells Google the business's name, address, phone and opening hours without leaving it to guess. For the business's own details one block matters most, LocalBusiness: it tells Google the name, address, phone and opening hours without leaving it to guess. Of the 4,627 businesses with a working website, 14% have one and only 5.8% have it complete; those that have one most often leave out opening hours (43.8%).
The share of businesses with complete data is in line with the average of the 7 cities in Italy we have scanned so far, which is 3.8%.

More and more people ask an AI assistant instead of searching Google. For general questions, such as a good restaurant downtown or a hairdresser open on Monday, assistants rely mostly on the ratings and the number of reviews a business has on Google and on review sites.
The website becomes decisive for specific questions (the menu, prices, a particular service, holiday opening hours) and to confirm the business exists and is the right one: that is why the assistant has to be able to read it. 95.1% of sites show their text without needing to run JavaScript, and 85.4% let AI assistants' crawlers in.
Across 4,377 working sites the AI Crawlability Score median is 79.3 out of 100 (mean 70.5): half the sites score at least 79.3, and the middle half sits between 60 and 85.
The score says how well an assistant such as ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini can read the site and tell what the business is: whether the text shows without running code, whether the site lets their crawlers in, whether there is structured data. The check with the lowest result is "ARD manifest for AI agents": only 0% of sites pass it.
The median score is in line with the average of the 7 cities in Italy we have scanned so far, which is 79.3.
Trust plays out on two fronts. The first is visible: 10.5% of sites do not use HTTPS, and the browser writes "Not secure" next to the address, right where a customer is about to leave their name and phone number in a form.
The second is invisible, and it is about email. A server flagged for spam does the website no harm, which opens and shows up in search results as before; but email sent from that server can land in customers' spam folders and never be read.
We checked the server of every working site against three spam blocklists (Spamhaus, Barracuda and SpamCop). Of 4,366 sites with an answer, 36 (0.8%) sit on a blocklisted server: 28 servers out of 2,604.
A spam blocklist lists the addresses spam was sent from. It does the website no harm: the site opens and shows up on Google as before. The risk is email: if the business sends it from that server, confirmations, quotes and replies to customers can land in the spam folder and never be read. The server is often shared with many other sites, and the flag comes from one of them.
The share of sites on a blocklisted server is lower than the average of the 7 cities in Italy we have scanned so far, which is 0.9%.

For developers: how the 4,377 working sites divide, not just their average. Here are the Core Web Vitals against Google's thresholds, JavaScript, image and font weight, file formats, technologies, what the structured data is made of, and the AI Crawlability Score's individual checks.
Performance, across 4,133 sites: half score below 65, one in four below 54, one in ten above 88. Median accessibility 87, SEO 92, AI Crawlability Score 79.3.
Each bar runs from the 10th to the 90th percentile; the thick part is the middle half of the sites, from the 25th to the 75th, and the mark is the median. A long bar means sites that differ a lot; a short one, sites that are alike.
The median performance score is in line with the average of the 7 cities in Italy we have scanned so far, which is 66.

Medians across 4,134 sites: first content (FCP) 2.7 s, main content (LCP) 7.4 s, page on screen (Speed Index) 4.9 s, blocking time (TBT) 139 ms, and server response (TTFB) 111 ms.
Against Google's thresholds, the median is good for TBT and TTFB, in need of improvement for FCP and Speed Index, and poor for LCP. These are lab measurements: Lighthouse simulates a mid-range phone on a slow mobile connection, so the times are longer than on an office computer. Interactivity (INP) cannot be measured in the lab.
The median main content time (LCP) is in line with the average of the 7 cities in Italy we have scanned so far, which is 7.2 s.

JavaScript downloaded by the home page: median 689 kB, one site in ten above 1.8 MB. Layout shift (CLS): 75th percentile 0.02, 90th percentile 0.16.
JavaScript has to be downloaded and run by the phone before the page responds to taps: the heavier it is, the harder the phone works. Three sites in four stay within 0.10, Google's good threshold: content does not jump around while the page loads, but one site in ten goes above 0.16.
The median JavaScript weight is in line with the average of the 7 cities in Italy we have scanned so far, which is 695 kB.

Of the 4,627 businesses with a working website, 61.9% have at least one JSON-LD block, but only 3.7% have complete basic data. The most common types on the sites are WebSite (50.2%), WebPage (39.3%), and BreadcrumbList (38.9%).
WebSite, WebPage and BreadcrumbList describe the site and its pages, and an SEO plugin often adds them on its own. To tell Google and AI assistants who the business is, where it is and when it is open, it takes a complete LocalBusiness block.
The share of businesses with complete basic data is in line with the average of the 7 cities in Italy we have scanned so far, which is 3.8%.
A business has complete basic structured data when the pages of its site carry both of these JSON-LD blocks:
LocalBusiness or one of its subtypes (Restaurant, Dentist, Store, LegalService...), with name, a structured address (PostalAddress, not free text), telephone, URL and opening hours.WebSite with the site's name and URL.Each block can appear on any of the analyzed pages. A block missing even one of these counts as incomplete. Shares are of the businesses with a working website.
LocalBusinessComplete 5.8%WebSiteComplete 48.3%Across 4,377 working sites, the check with the highest result is "Content visible without JavaScript" (95.1), the one with the lowest "ARD manifest for AI agents" (0). The robots.txt lets AI crawlers in on 85.4% of sites.
Each check has a weight, written under its name: a site's score is the weighted average of the checks that could be verified. A check the scan could not verify does not count as failed, and the site is judged on the others.
The share of sites open to AI crawlers is in line with the average of the 7 cities in Italy we have scanned so far, which is 83.8%.

44.3% of the sites show a cookie consent platform, and 66.6% run an analytics tool. Of those that run analytics, 43.3% show no consent platform we could detect.
Most common: Iubenda (18.6%), Cookiebot (7.3%), Complianz (6.4%).
Detected from what the home page loads: a site may use a tool we do not see, so read these as a floor.
66.6% of the sites have at least one page that repeats a word above the density our crawler flags as keyword stuffing.
On the home page, 22.2% of titles are longer than 60 characters and 32.4% of the sites have no meta description. 13% repeat the same title on more than one page.
89.5% of the sites answer on HTTPS, and 92.9% of those redirect plain HTTP to it.
Of 3,896 certificates checked, 100% are valid and 6.6% expire within 30 days.
Security headers on the home page: 29.2% send Strict-Transport-Security and 14.6% a Content-Security-Policy. We check that a header is present, not how strong it is.
The businesses and the website they list come from Overture Maps, an open dataset of places. We use no other source to find websites: every site analyzed is the one listed on the business's Overture entry.
Places have no single licence for the whole theme: each provider has its own, all permissive. CDLA Permissive 2.0 for Meta, Microsoft, PinMeTo, Krick, RenderSEO, DAC and BrightQuery, Apache 2.0 for Foursquare (whose data was transformed to Overture's schema) and CC0 1.0 for AllThePlaces.
Administrative boundaries (the divisions theme) are licensed ODbL and come from OpenStreetMap, geoBoundaries, Esri Community Maps and LINZ. That is why our reports carry the line Overture gives for data that includes OpenStreetMap.
Overture's page states no sharing or derived data obligations beyond that line: we add no conditions that are not there, and refer to each source's own licence for the details.
