Your Google listing

Hair Art & Beauty shows a very strong Google Business Listing health score of 8.9 out of 10, indicating solid completeness and optimisation. The listing already includes a claimed status, a website link, a phone number, and an Open-for-Business status, with a well-populated photos section and a detailed description that puts it in the top quartile. Key strengths are the claimed listing, contact details and open status.

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.

Where customers find you

Hair Art & Beauty shows solid health with a high trust in social profiles and strong local directory presence. The most notable findings are highly active Facebook and Instagram profiles and prominent listings in Yellow Directory and Fresha, driving local visibility and inflow. Opportunities exist mainly on TikTok, LinkedIn, Neighbourly, NoSecretSalon, and Neighbourly profiles to broaden reach.

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.
  • 2
    Yellow ProfileWe could not find an active Yellow Profile listing for your business, which means anyone checking you there finds nothing and moves on to whoever is listed.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Hair Art & Beauty shows solid on-page health with a score of 7.7 out of 10, indicating strengths in key elements and room to improve. The site already has a valid favicon, a relevant title tag, adequate content, HTTPS resources, and an SEO-friendly URL. The two main findings are opportunities to improve the meta description length and title tag balance, plus faster load time and fewer render-blocking resources.

Strengths

  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    Domain Age ScoreYour domain has been registered longer than almost any business in this market.
  • ✓
    FaviconThe tab your site opens in carries your own icon, so a customer with a dozen tabs going can find their way back to you by sight.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    On-page scoreSeveral checks on your home page fail at once, and a visitor meets all of them in the first few seconds: a slow open, no clear heading, nothing under your name in search that says what you do.
  • 2
    Meta descriptionThe summary under your name in search results is either too brief to say anything or long enough that Google cuts it mid-sentence.
  • 3
    Domain HealthYour site answers, but something did not check out - an insecure link, a redirect chain, a domain shared with other businesses, or a listing pointing at a social page.

How people find you on Google

Hair Art & Beauty shows a very healthy overall website traffic profile, with a 9.4/10 health score. The strongest evidence is high organic value and top local rankings, indicating sustainable visible presence. The main takeaway is continued organic momentum with minor gaps in paid search that, if addressed, could widen reach.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Hair Art & Beauty's opening hours partly match local demand but show clear gaps. The salon is open during notable weekday peaks such as Tuesday 10-11am and midweek afternoons, aligning with active customer searches. However several high-demand Saturday afternoons and Wednesday 5pm are closed - missed trade. There are no low-demand open hours, suggesting the schedule is lean but could be adjusted to capture late-week and weekend demand.
