Your Google listing

Aura Nail Studio's Google Business Listing shows a solid base with a health score of 4.8 out of 10, indicating room to improve. The listing has essential elements in place, including a claimed status, a website link, a phone number, and an open-for-business indicator. The most impactful opportunities are adding a logo and continuing to refine the 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
    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.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    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.

Your reviews

Aura Nail Studio shows strong Google review health with a high overall health score of 8.2 out of 10, indicating solid customer sentiment and reliable engagement. The key achievement is a top-10% star rating, reflecting exceptional satisfaction. The most important opportunities focus on increasing total reviews, improving response rate, and pushing into the elite confidence tier.

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
    Response rateYou answer more of your reviews than the middle of this market, so a customer scrolling your page mostly finds you there.
  • 2
    Review countYour review count sits above the middle of this market, which puts you in the group customers read as established rather than untested.
  • 3
    Review confidenceRating and volume together put you ahead of most of this market, which means a customer sees a well-rated business with enough reviews behind it to be believed.

Where you show up on the map

Aura Nail Studio shows a below-average overall health score of 3.6 out of 10 for Google Maps search. The business already ranks well for several core terms like nail salon in christchurch centre (Pos 4) and nail salon in sydenham (Pos 6), but the overall aggregate score remains limited and local borough visibility is minimal. The strongest opportunities lie in improving aggregate map visibility and boosting borough-specific rankings.

Strengths

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    Maps visibility in your own suburbYou show up in local Maps searches, but below most businesses in your suburb, so a customer looking from a nearby street is shown someone else first.
  • 2
    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.

Where customers find you

Aura Nail Studio shows a low health score of 1.6/10 for social presence and directories, indicating limited reach. The strongest current asset is a very high-trust Facebook profile, suggesting solid engagement there. A key second achievement is a Fresha category page that boosts visibility beyond the main profile.

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
    Instagram ProfileWe found your Instagram Profile page through search rather than through anything you own.
  • 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

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 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.
  • ✓
    A street addressA street address sits in your page details, so someone deciding between you and a business two suburbs over can see which of you is closer.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    A page address you choseYour page address is one Facebook generated rather than one you chose - your business name with a long number bolted on, or just the number.
  • 3
    Recommendations on your pageA couple of recommendations have landed on the page, fewer than most here.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Aura Nail Studio shows a below-average on-page SEO health, with a health score of 3.1 out of 10. Key findings include the absence of a detectable Title Tag on the homepage and no Meta Description, alongside the lack of a favicon. These gaps limit search visibility and click-through potential for local customers in Christchurch central.

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.
  • ✓
    Separate sites linking to youMore separate websites link to you than almost any business in this market - a spread built over years that a competitor cannot buy their way into.
  • ✓
    The shape of your link profileYour links come from about as wide a range of sites as anything in this market, and the mix of link types looks entirely natural.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    Meta descriptionYour pages carry no summary line of your own, so the two lines under your name in search results are whatever Google decides best fits the search.
  • 3
    Page titleThere is no headline set on your home page, so the clickable blue line in a search result falls back to your domain name or a scrap of code.

How people find you on Google

Aura Nail Studio shows below-average website traffic health with a 3.0 out of 10. The most important findings are near-zero organic traffic value and no organic keywords in the top 100. Targeted content, local optimisation, and small paid campaigns offer the clearest opportunities to begin improving visibility and attracting local clients.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Aura Nail Studio's opening hours largely match local demand, with several high-traffic weekday and weekend slots covered. Strong alignment includes Tuesday 11am, Wednesday 3pm, Thursday 4pm and Saturday afternoons. Missed opportunities are mainly on Wednesday and Thursday evenings (5-7pm), when demand remains high but the salon is closed. No low-demand open hours were identified, so adding a few later weekday hours could be commercially worthwhile.
