Your Google listing

A+ Dentists has a high Google Business Listing health score of 7.6 out of 10. The listing is claimed and includes the business name, website link, phone number and open-for-business status, giving customers reliable ways to find and contact the practice. The main opportunities are to expand the description with clearer service details and keep adding photos over time.

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
    Description lengthYour description gives a reader less than half the listings here do, so someone reading yours and then a competitor's gets less to go on from you.
  • 2
    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.
  • 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

A+ Dentists has a Very high Google review health score of 9.8 out of 10. Its strong rating confidence and high star rating indicate that customers see both quality and enough review volume to support it. The main focus is maintaining the near-complete response rate and continuing a steady flow of new reviews so this performance remains current and credible.

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.

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    Response rateYou answer nearly all your reviews, which is more than almost anyone in this market, and a customer reading the page sees a two-sided conversation rather than a scoreboard.
  • 2
    Review countYou hold more reviews than most of this market - depth buyers read as proof.

Where customers find you

A+ Dentists has an above average Citations & Social Presence health score of 6.6 out of 10. Its Facebook profile has strong trust association, and its Healthpoint listing is visible. The main gaps are missing Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn and White Pages profiles, which can leave customers without a clear business presence when checking those platforms.

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.
  • ✓
    Healthpoint ListingWe can see your Healthpoint Listing listing (https://healthpoint.co.nz/a-dentists-howick) found via: Google search results.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Instagram ProfileWe could not find an active Instagram Profile profile for your business, so a customer who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 2
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 3
    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.

05Facebook pageMarketbase business report

Your Facebook page

A+ Dentists has a High Facebook page health level, with a 7.5 out of 10 score. The page gives customers clear ways to make contact through its phone number, email address and street address, and its link points to a domain owned by the business. The main gaps are only 3 recommendations and the need to keep the 436-follower audience engaged with regular publishing.

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
    People following your pageFewer people follow your page than follow half the pages here.
  • 2
    Recommendations on your pageYou hold fewer recommendations than the middle of this market.
  • 3
    What your page says about youThere is more in your intro than in half the pages here, so a visitor has a real sense of the business before they reach the photos.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Strengths

  • ✓
    On-page scoreFew sites in this market clear these checks as completely as yours: fast to open, readable, and accurate about itself to Google and to the person who lands on it.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    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
    The shape of your link profileYour links are piled onto a small number of sites for a profile this size, so they are doing less for you than the count suggests.
  • 2
    Separate sites linking to youFewer separate websites link to you than half the businesses here, which means when someone searches for what you do, the businesses with a longer list of vouchers are the ones on the page they actually read.
  • 3
    Page titleYour home page headline does not fit the space a search result gives it, so a searcher sees either a half-empty line or one that trails off before your name arrives.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

A+ Dentists' hours are well aligned with local demand, covering 78% of weekly customer traffic, with most closures in quiet times. On Sunday from 1pm to 4pm, customers find the practice closed while the market is busy. A+ Dentists should open Sunday from 1pm to 4pm, letting customers arrive and be served when demand is highest.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Hours aligned with demandNo business here matches the demand around it more closely than you do - you are open when people are looking and shut when they are not.
