01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Adrian Capalad Photography shows an average Google Business health with several solid foundations. The listing already includes a claimed status, a live website link and a phone number, plus an open-for-business indicator, which helps customers reach and trust the business. The top finding is that the listing could improve with more photos and a clearer description.

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 is far shorter than what most businesses here have written, which means a customer comparing listings gets a line from you and three paragraphs from the business beside you.
  • 2
    Photos on the listingYou have no photos on your listing, or close to none, so a customer scrolling past sees a blank where every other business shows their work.
  • 3
    LogoYour listing has no logo, so in a list of local results yours is the one with a blank space where every competitor has a mark.

Your reviews

Adrian Capalad Photography shows a very low overall health score for Google Business reviews, suggesting potential customers may hesitate. The top findings highlight a weak overall rating confidence, a star rating not yet established, very few reviews, and no responses to reviews, indicating low engagement with clients.

Strengths

Your first one is close. Sort an opportunity below and it moves up here.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Review confidenceYour rating and your review count together put you at the bottom of this market - either the rating is low, or there are too few reviews behind it for anyone to trust it.
  • 2
    Star ratingYou have no star rating yet, so a customer scanning results sees an empty space where every other business shows a number.
  • 3
    Response rateNone of your reviews have a reply, which means a customer reading them sees your happiest and your angriest customers with nothing from you in between.

Where you show up on the map

Adrian Capalad Photography shows a below-average health score on Google Maps at 3.2/10, indicating limited visibility. Two key findings: the business already ranks in top 5 for several core keywords in Waltham, and its borough presence has improved to surpass the bottom 25% locally. Focus remains on boosting overall and borough map visibility.

Strengths

Your first one is close. Sort an opportunity below and it moves up here.

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across fewer of the surrounding suburbs than half the businesses here, so someone two suburbs over searching for your service is shown your competitors and never sees your name.
  • 2
    Maps visibility in your own suburbYou show up in local Maps searches less often than half your suburb, so on a search from nearby you sit below businesses a customer would otherwise treat as equal.

Where customers find you

Adrian Capalad Photography shows an above-average health score of 6.6 out of 10 for social and directory presence, with strong current performance on Instagram and Facebook profiles. Key strength lies in highly trusted Instagram and Facebook presence, supporting brand credibility and audience engagement. Opportunities lie in expanding to TikTok, Neighbourly, LinkedIn (personal and company pages), and Fresha 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.
  • ✓
    Infobel ListingWe can see your Infobel Listing listing (https://infobel.com/adrian_capalad_photography) found via: Google search results.

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.
  • 3

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    An email addressCustomers can see an email address on the page, which gives the one who wants a quote in writing a route that does not depend on anyone picking up the phone.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Recommendations on your pageNo recommendations sit on your page, so a stranger who came to see whether anyone else has used you leaves with only your own posts to go on.
  • 2
    People following your pageFewer people follow your page than most in this market, which means a post reaches people who already know you rather than anyone still deciding.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Adrian Capalad Photography's opening hours largely match local demand, with strong alignment mid-day on Monday and Wednesday when searches peak. No high-demand windows are missed. Some low-demand hours are open early mornings and late evenings on selected weekdays, which may be inefficient. Adjusting a few low-traffic shifts or concentrating bookings into midday peak slots could improve commercial efficiency without reducing client access.
