Your Google listing

Hi Gorgeous shows a below-average overall health on Google Business Listing with a 3.9/10. The listing has a solid foundation with a website link, a claimed status, a visible title, a listed phone number, and open-for-business status, indicating basic completeness and control. The main opportunity is to enhance description, logo, and photos to boost appeal.

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
    LogoYour listing has no logo, so in a list of local results yours is the one with a blank space where every competitor has a mark.
  • 3
    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.

Your reviews

Hi Gorgeous has a healthy but modest overall health score on Google reviews, indicating room for improvement in engagement and volume. The strongest findings show solid customer trust and satisfaction, with high star ratings and a good base of reviews. The main opportunity is increasing response rates to reviews to further boost credibility.

Strengths

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

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Response rateYou have replied to a small share of your reviews, so most customers reading your page still see feedback about you with no voice from you anywhere on it.
  • 2
    Review countYour review count sits above the middle of this market, which puts you in the group customers read as established rather than untested.
  • 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

Hi Gorgeous shows a health score of 3.4 out of 10 in Google Maps search, indicating below average visibility. Top findings include a steady aggregate presence and a borough presence that has risen out of the bottom quartile. These trends suggest the salon already appears in broader maps queries and is improving locally, with room to climb further.

Strengths

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

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across fewer of the surrounding suburbs than half the businesses here, so someone two suburbs over searching for your service is shown your competitors and never sees your name.
  • 2
    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

Hi Gorgeous shows a low overall health in Citations and Social Presence. The strongest current asset is a very high-trust Facebook profile and a well-maintained Fresha listing, which helps credibility and local booking reach. Key opportunities include a neglected TikTok profile, limited GrabOne presence, and incomplete Yellow Directory and TikTok directory listings that limit discoverability.

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.
  • ✓
    Fresha ProfileWe can see your Fresha Profile listing (https://fresha.com/hi-gorgeous-johns-road-rangiora-JQEb74) 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
    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
    People following your pageYour following sits ahead of half the pages here, so an ordinary post reaches a real local audience without you paying for it.
  • 2
    Recommendations on your pageYour count sits above the middle of this market, so a visitor reading the page finds enough written by other people to stop needing anything written by you.
  • 3
    What your page says about youYour intro carries more detail than most pages in this market and is doing the work of a short landing page for the visitors who never reach your website.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Hi Gorgeous has a high on-page SEO health, scoring 8.5 out of 10, indicating strong technical setup for the homepage. The most notable findings are a strong title tag in the ideal length and an SEO-friendly URL, plus a concise, relevant meta description. Opportunities include refining the meta description length, adding a favicon, and reducing page speed and render-blocking issues.

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.
  • ✓
    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
    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
    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
    Separate sites linking to youMore separate websites link to you than half the businesses here, so a reasonable spread of places vouch for you.

Your hours against demand

Hi Gorgeous's published hours match several weekday afternoon peaks but miss popular weekend and late‑evening demand. Total weekly open hours are 48 with 48 well‑aligned peak hours and 29 missed high‑demand hours. Key strong alignment occurs midweek (Tue 10-11am, Wed 2-3pm, Thu 4pm). No low‑demand open hours were flagged, so unused open time is not evident.
