Your Google listing

Hillmorton Community Dental Clinic shows a low overall health of 2.5/10 for its Google Business Listing, indicating many gaps to fix. The strongest points are that a website link, a listing title, a phone number, and a full street address are present, plus the open-for-business status is shown. Primary opportunities lie in claiming the listing, adding a meaningful description and a logo, and expanding photo presence.

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
    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.

Your reviews

Hillmorton Community Dental Clinic shows a low overall health score of 2.6 out of 10, indicating room for improvement in Google reviews. The top findings are that rating confidence has improved but still sits below the midpoint, and the business has not yet responded to any reviews. There is initial momentum with more reviews being collected, suggesting stronger encouragement could raise total reviews and rating further.

Where you show up on the map

Hillmorton Community Dental Clinic shows very strong overall visibility in Google Maps with a health score of 9.4 out of 10. The top opportunity is to continue refining the Google Business Listing to push the borough score into the top 10% while maintaining solid performance across suburbs, given current top-5 rankings for many key dental terms.

Where customers find you

Hillmorton Community Dental Clinic shows low overall health in Citations & Social Presence with a 2.4/10. Key strength is a Yellow Directory listing that is current, helping discovery. The major limitation is lack of active profiles on major social platforms, which reduces local visibility and trust among customers and families seeking routine dental care.
