Your Google listing

Ataahua Studio shows a strong Google Business Listing health score of 8.0 out of 10, indicating solid listing completeness and visibility. The most notable findings are that the listing is claimed and verified, includes a website link and phone number, and shows current open status. Improvements are possible in photos and description to reach top local benchmarks.

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 more than most listings here do, so a customer choosing between three of you gets more of your case than of theirs.
  • 2
    Category fitYour category set covers less of this market than half the field, so there are jobs being searched for near you that your listing is not eligible to appear in.
  • 3
    Photos on the listingYou carry more photos than most of this market, which gives a customer a real look at the work before they ring.

Your reviews

Ataahua Studio shows a healthy Google review profile with a 7.4/10 health score. The top achievement is a star rating in the top 10%, indicating strong customer satisfaction. Key opportunities to improve include increasing total reviews, boosting rating confidence into the upper local quartile, and raising the response rate to engage more customers.

Strengths

  • ✓
    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 three opportunities

  • 1
    Review countYour review count sits well below what buyers here are used to seeing, which means a customer comparing options side by side reads you as the less proven choice.
  • 2
    Review confidenceYour rating and your review count together sit behind half the businesses here, so a customer weighing three listings has slightly less reason to trust yours.
  • 3
    Response rateYou answer more of your reviews than the middle of this market, so a customer scrolling your page mostly finds you there.

Where you show up on the map

Ataahua Studio shows an above-average health score of 6.5 out of 10 for Google Maps search performance, indicating solid visibility with room to improve. The strongest opportunities lie in Suburb/Borough visibility where rankings are already in the top quartile, and the focus should be on nudging into the top 10% through ongoing listing refinement and consistency.

Strengths

Top two opportunities

    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across more of the surrounding suburbs than the middle of the field, so customers searching from outside your own patch are finding you.
  • 2
    Maps visibility in your own suburbYou show up in local Maps searches more often than nearly every business in your suburb, so a customer searching nearby sees you before most of your competition.

Where customers find you

Ataahua Studio's health sits at 4.9 out of 10, indicating average presence across platforms and directories. The strongest existing asset is a very high-trust Facebook profile, while Fresha listings add visibility. The main finding is that Instagram already has a high-trust association, but TikTok and several local profiles are missing and limit reach among local customers.

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.

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
    Instagram Profileyour Instagram Profile page surfaces strongly in search, which is how we found it, though nothing you control points at it.
  • 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.

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 pageYou hold fewer recommendations than the middle of this market.
  • 2
    What your page says about youYour intro runs to a line, shorter than most pages here, so it names the business without settling whether you do the particular job the reader came about or cover the suburb they live in.
  • 3
    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

Ataahua Studio's on-page SEO health is below average, with a 3.6 out of 10 overall. The most important findings are the missing homepage Title Tag and Meta Description, and the lack of a valid favicon, all of which limit visibility and trust. Addressing these basics will form a solid baseline for improvement.

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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Domain HealthYour website did not come back healthy when we tried it, and anyone clicking through from your Google listing is meeting whatever we met.
  • 2
    On-page scoreYour home page did not return anything we can measure, and a page that will not answer a scanner is usually the same page that keeps a customer waiting.

How people find you on Google

Ataahua Studio's website traffic health is below average with a 3.5/10 score. The two most important findings are that organic traffic value is near zero and no organic keywords rank in the top 100, indicating limited visibility. Paid traffic is also not yet present in meaningful volume.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Ataahua Studio's opening hours partly match Lincoln demand: 32 peak hours are covered, but 45 popular hours are missed, giving a low temporal health score. Strong alignment occurs mid-morning on Tuesday and mid-afternoon on Thursday and Saturday. Missed opportunities fall mainly on Wednesday mid-afternoon and Thursday late afternoon. No low-demand open hours were identified, suggesting schedule efficiency but room to expand into missed peak slots.
