The Columbus Index — July 26, 2026 edition

Edition write-up · July 26, 2026

The state of Columbus's local visibility.

This edition ranks 628 independent businesses across 14 categories. The picture: 76% list no social channel, 17% have no working website, and 13% are effectively invisible online. Every listed website was tested; dead links earn no points.

This edition sets the baseline — from next month, the climbers appear here.
