Your Google listing

The Google Business Listing for Dr Rob Ashman Cosmetic & Implant Dentist shows a very low health score, indicating several critical gaps. Primary findings point to unclaimed status, unclear open-for-business status, and minimal multimedia content. Current basics like website, phone and address are present, but further details are needed to improve credibility and discoverability.

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.
  • ✓
    WebsiteYour listing links to your website, so a customer can move from Google to your own pages in one tap and read your account of the work before they ring.

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
    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.
  • 3
    Photos on the listingYou have no photos on your listing, or close to none, so a customer scrolling past sees a blank where every other business shows their work.

Your reviews

Dr Rob Ashman Cosmetic & Implant Dentist shows overall health that is low, with a score of 2.7 out of 10. This indicates limited optimisation of Google reviews and engagement, suggesting room for significant improvement. The strongest finding is a top-10% star rating, reflecting high customer satisfaction, while the lack of response to reviews signals missed engagement opportunities.

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 confidenceRating and review volume together sit well behind this market, which means a customer comparing you has both halves of the picture reading thin.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    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.

Where you show up on the map

The Maps Search Performance overall health is 4.2 out of 10, which indicates below average visibility in Google Maps results. The top opportunities focus on expanding aggregate visibility across suburbs and strengthening borough presence to move toward the local midpoint.

Strengths

Top two opportunities

  • 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.
  • 2
    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across more of the surrounding suburbs than nearly everyone here, so a customer searching well outside your own patch still sees you.

Where customers find you

The primary finding is an outstanding Instagram profile with a very high trust score, while other key platforms and directories are missing or inactive, limiting reach and credibility.

Strengths

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

The overall on-page health is 6.5 out of 10, indicating above-average health with room for targeted improvements. Key findings show a strong meta description in place and a valid favicon with an H1 tag. The main opportunity is to craft a homepage meta description where one is missing, and to make the URL more SEO-friendly.

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.
  • ✓
    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 youNo separate website links to yours.
  • 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.

How people find you on Google

The website health for Dr Rob Ashman Cosmetic & Implant Dentist shows a 4.3 out of 10, indicating average performance in website traffic among local peers. Key findings include visible paid traffic opportunities despite no measurable paid traffic yet, and organic traffic metrics already above the bottom quartile, suggesting room to strengthen SEO fundamentals and maintain keyword momentum.

Strengths

    What that traffic is worthThe search visitors reaching your site are worth less than most businesses here, which means the work coming in arrives through word of mouth and repeat customers rather than through people searching for what you do.

    What you spend on adsWe can see no paid search activity for your site, which in most local markets is the norm rather than a gap.
  • 3
    Monthly search visitsYour site draws fewer visitors from search than most businesses here, so most people looking for what you do are landing somewhere else.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Dr Rob Ashman Cosmetic & Implant Dentist has no published opening hours, so alignment with Christchurch demand patterns cannot be measured. No strong alignment points are recorded. The lack of hours creates missed opportunities during likely high-demand windows and prevents assessment of inefficiencies from being open during low-demand times. Adding accurate hours will immediately reveal where opening times match local search patterns.
