01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Austin Architects Limited shows a very low health on Google Business Listing at 0.6 out of 10. The listing has basic elements in place, including a title, phone number, full address and a main image, but there are critical gaps to address. The two most important findings are the missing website link and the unclaimed listing status.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    PhoneYour listing carries a phone number, so the call button is live for anyone who finds you on a phone.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    ClaimedYour listing is not claimed, which means anyone can suggest an edit to it and you have no way to reply to a review or correct what is shown.
  • 2
    WebsiteYour listing has no website link, so a customer who wants to check your prices or your work before ringing has nowhere to go from Google.
  • 3
    Description lengthThere is no real description on your listing, so when someone finds you on Google there is nothing in your own words telling them what you do.

Your reviews

Austin Architects Limited shows a low Google Business health score of 2.5/10, indicating customers may be hesitant.

    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

Strengths

Where customers find you

Austin Architects Limited shows a low overall health score for citations and social presence, indicating limited active profiles and directory listings. The strongest existing asset is a LinkedIn profile that supports professional visibility and credibility. Key gaps include missing or weak Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Yellow Directory, and Yellow Profile listings, which constrain local reach and trust.

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

    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.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Austin Architects Limited shows a very low on-page SEO health score, with a 1.4 out of 10. The most critical findings are missing or weak: no on-page SEO score detected, no Title Tag detected, and no Meta Description detected, plus lack of a favicon and render-blocking resources affecting performance. Addressing these core issues should stabilise visibility and click-through potential.

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
    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
    Separate sites linking to youNo separate website links to yours.
  • 3
    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.

Your hours against demand

Austin Architects Limited has no published opening hours, so alignment with local demand cannot be measured. No strong alignment hours can be shown and specific missed-peak windows are unknown. The absence of hours likely contributes to the low temporal-health score (1.2/10). Publishing clear hours and tracking local search patterns will reveal where to open to meet peak demand and avoid wasted low-demand time.
