Your Google listing

Finsol Financial Advisers shows solid health on Google Business Listing with a score of 7.2 out of 10. The listing has a verified claim, a visible phone number, and a working website link, which supports direct customer inquiries. The two strongest recent findings are a complete listing title and an Open-for-Business status that communicates availability clearly.

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 more than most listings here do, so a customer choosing between three of you gets more of your case than of theirs.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    Category fitYour categories cover this market better than the middle of the field, so you appear in most of the searches your competitors appear in.

The top achievements include an outstanding review confidence and a brilliant star rating, both in the top 10% for the local market. After these strengths, opportunities focus on maintaining service quality to push into the top 10% consistently and sustaining a high response rate.

    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 rateYou answer nearly all your reviews, which is more than almost anyone in this market, and a customer reading the page sees a two-sided conversation rather than a scoreboard.
  • 2

Where you show up on the map

Finsol Financial Advisers shows a very high health score for Maps Search Performance, indicating strong local visibility. The top opportunities lie in further increasing aggregate visibility across suburbs and solidifying borough presence. Core keywords such as finance broker and mortgage broker in Mount Pleasant, Brookhaven-Ferrymead, and Woolston already rank well, suggesting continued focus on local relevance.

Strengths

Where customers find you

Finsol Financial Advisers shows an overall health of 9.7 out of 10, indicating a very strong social and directory presence. The strongest positives are outstanding Facebook and Instagram profiles and an active LinkedIn Company listing. Opportunities exist to improve visibility on TikTok, GrabOne, Neighbourly, Yellow, and LinkedIn to broaden reach while maintaining current high trust across existing 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.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    Neighbourly ProfileWe can see your Neighbourly Profile listing (https://www.neighbourly.co.nz/business/finsol-financial-advisers-christchurch) found via: Google search results.

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
    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.
  • 3
    LinkedIn ProfileWe could not find an active LinkedIn 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
    An email addressA customer who would rather put a request in writing at ten at night has only Messenger to work with, because the page carries no email address.
  • 2
    People following your pageMore people follow your page than most in this market, which means a post can travel past your own customers when one of them shares it into a local group.
  • 3
    Recommendations on your pageMore customers have recommended you than at most pages in this market, and depth like that reads as a business that has been doing this a while.

Your website

Overall on-page health for Finsol Financial Advisers is very high at 9.8/10, indicating strong technical setup. The most notable findings are excellent meta description and title tag health, plus secure HTTPS and a compact page size, which support fast load times and clear search snippets.

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.
  • ✓
    Meta descriptionYour search summary sits in the length that reads in full on most screens, which is as far as length alone can take it - a narrow phone still cuts the tail off a line this size.
  • ✓
    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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    The shape of your link profileYour links are spread across a fair range of sites for a profile this size, and the mix of link types looks ordinary.
  • 3
    Pages linking to youMore pages link to you than half the businesses here, so search engines have a reasonable number of routes into your site.

Your hours against demand

Finsol Financial Advisers shows very strong temporal alignment with local demand (health score 9.3/10), with published hours matching many high-demand periods. Some missed opportunities remain where the business is closed during other popular search windows, and a few open hours fall in low-demand times. Consider modest hour shifts or an advertised after-hours appointment slot to capture more enquiries without major staffing change.
