01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Hair Plus shows a solid Google Business Listing health with a 7.5 out of 10. The listing has essential elements in place (open status, website link, claimed status, phone number) and a decent description. The main opportunity is adding more photos to boost visibility, with the description already improved but still below the local midpoint. Overall, listings health supports steady customer engagement.

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
    Photos on the listingYou have fewer photos than nearly every business here, so a customer comparing you against them builds a picture of their work and guesses at yours.
  • 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.

Your reviews

Hair Plus shows an average health score of 5.5 out of 10 for Google reviews, indicating room for improvement while current metrics are solid. Notable findings include a strong star rating trajectory and a top quartile review count, yet no responses to customer reviews are being posted yet, which can affect trust and perceived engagement.

Strengths

Your first one is close. Sort an opportunity below and it moves up here.

Top three 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
    Star ratingYour rating sits ahead of half the businesses here, so the number is not pushing anyone away.
  • 3
    Review confidenceRating and volume together put you ahead of most of this market, which means a customer sees a well-rated business with enough reviews behind it to be believed.

Where you show up on the map

Hair Plus shows a solid health score of 7.7 out of 10 for Google Maps search visibility, indicating strong presence with room to grow. The top opportunities focus on expanding aggregate visibility across multiple local suburbs and strengthening the borough presence to move toward the local midpoint and beyond.

Strengths

Your first one is close. Sort an opportunity below and it moves up here.

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

Hair Plus shows a very high overall health for social presence and directories, indicating strong current reach. The two key findings are outstanding Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok profiles, and active listings on GrabOne and Fresha. Opportunities include expanding LinkedIn presence, a LinkedIn Company page, and claiming Neighbourly profiles to broaden local engagement.

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.
  • ✓
    Tiktok ProfileWe found your Tiktok 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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    Neighbourly ProfileWe could not find an active Neighbourly Profile listing for your business, which means anyone checking you there finds nothing and moves on to whoever is listed.

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    People following your pageYours is one of the largest local followings in this market.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    Recommendations on your pageYour recommendation count is one of the deeper collections in this market, and enough of it is written by other people that the page does some of the arguing for you.

Top opportunity

  • 1
    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

Hair Plus shows strong on-page health with a high overall score of 8.1 out of 10. Key strengths include fast page load under 3 seconds, a compact page size, a visible H1 tag, HTTPS only content, and sufficient text length, all contributing to clear messaging and trust for customers.

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.
  • ✓
    Pages linking to youMore pages link to yours than almost any business in this market - the accumulated result of years of being referred to.
  • ✓
    Links to your siteMore sites link to you than almost any business in this market, a position built over years and genuinely hard for a competitor to match.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Meta descriptionYour search summary sits just outside a workable length, so a searcher either gets less than the space allows or loses the tail of it.
  • 2
    Domain HealthYour site answers, but something did not check out - an insecure link, a redirect chain, a domain shared with other businesses, or a listing pointing at a social page.
  • 3
    On-page scoreMost checks on your home page pass, so someone clicking through from a search gets a page that opens quickly and says what it is.

How people find you on Google

Hair Plus shows an overall strong health for website traffic, reflecting high organic performance and solid paid activity relative to peers. The standout finding is top-tier organic traffic value and solid organic SERP coverage, indicating strong visibility and value from organic search. Paid metrics are improving but remain below top quartiles, suggesting room for data-driven optimisations.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Search terms you rank forYour site appears for more search terms than almost any business in this market, so there are more ways to find you than to find anyone else here.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    What that traffic is worthThe search visitors reaching your site are worth more than most businesses here, which means a meaningful part of your enquiry flow arrives at no cost per visit.
  • 2
    Monthly search visitsYour site draws more visitors from search than most businesses here, which means a real share of your work arrives from people who found you rather than the other way round.
  • 3
    What you spend on adsYour paid search activity is larger than most businesses advertising here, which points at a real monthly spend behind it.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Hair Plus has partial alignment between opening hours and local demand. The salon is open during strong weekday lunch peaks - notably Tuesday 11am-2pm and Wednesday 12pm - covering 34 well-aligned peak hours, but it is closed for several high-demand weekend and midday slots (37 missed peak hours), especially Saturday 11am-2pm and Monday 12pm, which reduces the overall health score (3.0/10).
