01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Botanic Landscape Architects shows a solid overall health score on Google Business, indicating the listing is reasonably complete and well-verified. The strongest current findings include a claimed listing, a visible phone number and a website link, plus an open status that reflects availability. The main opportunity lies in continuing to improve the description to reach the local midpoint and elevate the listing description above the bottom quartile.

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
    Category fitYour categories cover less of this market than nearly every competitor, so someone searching for a job you actually do is shown a list your listing was never entered into.
  • 3
    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.

Your reviews

Botanic Landscape Architects shows a very high overall health on Google reviews (9.5/10). The business already sits in the top 10% for star rating and review confidence, indicating strong customer satisfaction. The main improvement is engaging with reviews, as no responses have been made yet, which can strengthen trust with clients.

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 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.
  • 2
    Review countYou hold more reviews than most of this market - depth buyers read as proof.

Where you show up on the map

Botanic Landscape Architects shows a solid health score for Maps Search Performance, with a 7.5 out of 10, indicating strong visibility and room to grow in local maps. The top opportunity is enhancing the borough presence to move from the bottom quartile toward the local midpoint, while the aggregate score already places the studio in the top quartile region-wide. Maintaining updates can push rankings higher.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Maps visibility across the city groupThere is no wider Maps reach available to a business at your address - you appear across more of the surrounding suburbs than anyone in this market.

Top opportunity

  • 1
    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

Botanic Landscape Architects shows an average health score of 5.7 out of 10, indicating moderate digital presence. The strongest current asset is an outstanding Instagram profile with very high trust and a well-aligned brand, while LinkedIn Company listing is present and up to date. Opportunities include launching active TikTok and TikTok Directory profiles and improving Facebook and LinkedIn consistency where needed.

Strengths

  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    LinkedIn CompanyWe can see your LinkedIn Company listing (https://linkedin.com/company/botanic-landscape-architects) found via: Google search results, Your website.
  • ✓
    ArchiPro ProfessionalWe can see your ArchiPro Professional listing (https://archipro.co.nz/botanic-landscape-architects) found via: Google search results, Your website.

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
    Having a Facebook page at allyour Facebook Profile page surfaces strongly in search, which is how we found it - but 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.

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 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
    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.
  • 3
    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.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Botanic Landscape Architects shows a very high on-page SEO health score, with strong title tag and meta description relevance. The main strengths include a concise title tag within the ideal length, a valid favicon, and a streamlined page under 256KB. The key finding is that on-page SEO is already robust, with opportunities mainly around minor meta description timing and speed improvements.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Page titleYour home page headline fits a search result exactly, so the whole line reads to someone scanning a page of results rather than cutting off mid-phrase.
  • ✓
    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
    Separate sites linking to youOnly a handful of separate websites link to yours, well behind most of this market.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    On-page scoreThe basics on your home page are half in place: it opens and it reads, but enough checks still fail that a customer on a phone away from wifi notices the wait before they notice the business.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Botanic Landscape Architects' opening hours show partial alignment with local demand. Weekday lunchtime slots-particularly Wednesday 11-12 and Thursday 12-1, plus Tuesday 12pm-match higher search activity and are well placed for client meetings. However several high-demand weekend hours, notably Saturday 11am-2pm and Sunday 12pm, are closed. No open hours fall in low-demand windows, so inefficiency from needless open time is not evident.
