01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Accounting Solutions Ltd shows a very high health score for its Google Business Listing, at 9.2 out of 10, indicating strong completeness and optimisation. The listing already includes key elements, with a claimed status, a visible website link, a phone number, and open-for-business status. Current gains in photos and a strong description support good visibility with customers.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    ClaimedYour listing is claimed, so you control what it says, you can reply to reviews, and edits suggested by the public come to you first.
  • ✓
    NameYour business name is showing on the listing, so a customer searching for you by name finds you, and everything else on the listing hangs off it.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Photos on the listingYou have more photos on your listing than half the businesses here, so a customer arriving has enough to look at that they stay on it.
  • 2
    Description lengthYour description is one of the fuller ones in this market, which means a customer comparing you side by side has more of your case in front of them than most.
  • 3
    Category fitYour category set is one of the better-fitted in this market, so you are eligible for nearly every search happening around you.

Your reviews

Accounting Solutions Ltd shows a very strong overall health score of 9.7, indicating high satisfaction and a solid foundation for growth. The business benefits from outstanding Google star rating and review count, placing it in the top 10% for reputation. A key finding is that no reviews have been responded to, which could affect perceived engagement with customers.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Review confidenceRating and volume together put you at the head of this market: well rated, with enough reviews behind it that a customer takes the number seriously.
  • ✓
    Star ratingYour rating is among the highest in this market and it does its own selling - a customer sees it before they read anything else.
  • ✓
    Review countYou hold one of the deepest review banks in this market - social proof that does its own selling.

Top opportunity

  • 1

Where you show up on the map

Accounting Solutions Ltd shows a very high overall health in Maps Search Performance, indicating strong visibility across Google Maps. Top findings include borough-specific visibility in Sydenham being in the top 10% and excellent performance for key local keywords such as accountant in sydenham and certified public accountant in sydenham. Opportunities focus on sustaining updates to maintain regional reach.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Maps visibility across the city groupThere is no wider Maps reach available to a business at your address - you appear across more of the surrounding suburbs than anyone in this market.
  • ✓
    Maps visibility in your own suburbNo business in your suburb turns up in local Maps searches more often than you do - for a customer searching nearby, you are among the first names on the screen.

Where customers find you

Accounting Solutions Ltd shows a very high health score of 9.4, indicating strong social and directory presence with room to expand into a few additional platforms. The strongest current strength is established profiles on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, which support trust and reach for clients. Focus should be on consistent activity across platforms and keeping brand messaging cohesive.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Having a Facebook page at allWe found your Facebook Profile page, and the trail is strong enough that nobody would question it is yours - it is linked from something you own, or it dominates a search for your name.
  • ✓
    Instagram ProfileWe found your Instagram Profile page, and the trail between you and it is unambiguous - it is linked from something you own, or it dominates a search for your name.
  • ✓

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.

05Facebook pageMarketbase business report

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    Where your page link pointsThe link on your page goes to a domain that is yours, so a visitor who came for the photos leaves on your terms and the enquiry lands in your inbox rather than someone else's.
  • ✓
    A page address you choseThe address on your page carries your business name, so a customer told about you at a barbecue can find the page by typing what they heard.
  • ✓
    A phone numberA phone number shows on your page, so the person who found you on Facebook before they found your website can ring straight from it.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Recommendations on your pageA couple of recommendations have landed on the page, fewer than most here.
  • 2
    People following your pageYour following sits ahead of half the pages here, so an ordinary post reaches a real local audience without you paying for it.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Accounting Solutions Ltd shows a very high on-page health score of 9.6 out of 10 for the homepage. Key strengths include a perfectly shaped meta description, a valid favicon, fast page load under 3 seconds, an SEO-friendly URL, and a relevant title tag. The main opportunities focus on improving H1 tagging, reducing excessive plaintext relative to total page size, addressing render-blocking resources, and fine-tuning the title tag length to sit between 50-60 characters.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Domain HealthYour site answers cleanly over a secure connection, so a customer clicking through from Google lands where they expect with nothing in the way.
  • ✓
    Meta descriptionYour search summary sits in the length that reads in full on most screens, which is as far as length alone can take it - a narrow phone still cuts the tail off a line this size.
  • ✓
    Domain UniquenessYour web address is yours alone, so everything your site earns - links, mentions, search standing - accumulates under your name and stays with the business.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    On-page scoreMost checks on your home page pass, so someone clicking through from a search gets a page that opens quickly and says what it is.
  • 2
    The shape of your link profileYour links are spread across a fair range of sites for a profile this size, and the mix of link types looks ordinary.
  • 3
    Separate sites linking to youMore separate websites link to you than most of this market, so search engines see a wide spread of independent sites vouching for you.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Accounting Solutions Ltd's opening hours align well with weekday peaks, especially across Thursday where office hours match strong client demand. However, several high-demand weekend windows are closed, representing clear missed opportunities. No low-demand open hours were found, so current scheduling is tidy but may miss weekend clients. Consider targeted weekend availability or appointment options to capture unmet demand.
