01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Bradley Wood Dentists shows an average health score with clear listing basics in place, indicating steady presence but room for impact. The listing has an accessible phone number, claimed status, a title, and a visible open status. Key strength is the accessible contact and verified ownership, while the main gap is a descriptive narrative that communicates services and value to potential patients.

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 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.
  • 2
    Photos on the listingThere are more pictures on most listings around you than on yours, so a customer flicking between them gets a fuller look at the businesses either side of you.
  • 3
    Category fitYour category set is one of the better-fitted in this market, so you are eligible for nearly every search happening around you.

My family and I have been going to Bradley Wood for many years now, everyone is wonderful! In particular I’d like to give a big shout out to the hygienist Kerri, she has looked after all of us for as long as she’s been there. She is friend...

Response from the owner

Thank you for the kind words, she does a great job.

Where customers find you

Bradley Wood Dentists has an above-average health score for social presence, with notable strength on Facebook, GrabOne and Neighbourly, and active Yellow Directory listing. The top opportunities focus on adding Instagram, TikTok and directory presence to broaden reach and balance with consistent, current profiles.

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.
  • ✓
    Yellow ProfileWe can see your Yellow Profile listing (https://yellow.co.nz/y/bradley-wood-dentists-ltd-579439720) found via: Google search results.
  • ✓
    Neighbourly ProfileWe can see your Neighbourly Profile listing (https://www.neighbourly.co.nz/business/bradley-wood-dentists) found via: Google search results.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Instagram ProfileWe could not find an active Instagram Profile profile for your business, so a customer who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 2
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 3
    LinkedIn CompanyWe could not find an active LinkedIn Company listing for your business, which means anyone checking you there finds nothing and moves on to whoever is listed.

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 follow half the pages here.

    What your page says about youThere is more in your intro than in half the pages here, so a visitor has a real sense of the business before they reach the photos.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Bradley Wood Dentists shows an average on-page health score of 5.2 out of 10, with room to improve technical elements for better crawlability and user experience. Strengths include a valid favicon, presence of an H1, a relevant meta description, no frames, and a small page size, which support quick loading and clear structure.

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.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    Page file sizeYour home page is light enough to open quickly on a phone with a weak signal, which is where most people meet a local business for the first time.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    On-page scoreSeveral checks on your home page fail at once, and a visitor meets all of them in the first few seconds: a slow open, no clear heading, nothing under your name in search that says what you do.
  • 3
    Page titleYour home page headline does not fit the space a search result gives it, so a searcher sees either a half-empty line or one that trails off before your name arrives.
