01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

iRazor Haircuts - Northlands Mall Papanui shows a healthy Google Business Listing with a 7.4/10 score. The business is claimed, has a phone number and website link, and displays open status, which supports customer access. The top strengths are listing completeness and strong photo presence, with a revised description improving above the bottom quartile.

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
    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.
  • 3
    Photos on the listingYou carry more photos than most of this market, which gives a customer a real look at the work before they ring.

Your reviews

iRazor Haircuts - Northlands Mall Papanui shows a low overall Google review health score of 2.1/10, indicating limited positive impact from reviews. The top finding is that the listing already has a strong total review count in the top 25%, and there is room to improve response to reviews and overall rating levels. Customers are the focus of feedback.

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
    Star ratingYour rating sits well below what customers here are used to seeing, and it is the first number they compare when two businesses look otherwise equal.

Where you show up on the map

iRazor Haircuts in Northlands Mall Papanui shows below-average health in Google Maps performance, with a 2.9 out of 10 health score. The strongest opportunities relate to growing both aggregate and borough presence: continuing to appear in broader maps queries and solidifying the local borough ranking to reach the local midpoint and beyond.

Strengths

Where customers find you

iRazor Haircuts - Northlands Mall Papanui shows very low health in social presence and directories, with key strengths on Facebook and Fresha visibility. The business has a strong Facebook profile and an updated Fresha listing, but overall presence is limited by missing Instagram, TikTok, Neighbourly, Yellow directories, and Yellow profile visibility, limiting local reach.

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/irazor-haircuts-northlands-mall-papanui-main-north-road-christchurch-EvErjq) 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.

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
    Recommendations on your pageYou hold fewer recommendations than the middle of this market.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    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.

Your website

The on-page health for iRazor Haircuts - Northlands Mall Papanui is 6.9 out of 10, indicating above-average performance. Key strengths include a valid favicon, a compact page size, secure HTTPS resources, a healthy text-to-page ratio, and sufficient character count. Opportunities exist to push the score higher by improving meta description and title tag health, H1 presence, and page speed.

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.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    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 scoreSeveral checks on your home page fail at once, and a visitor meets all of them in the first few seconds: a slow open, no clear heading, nothing under your name in search that says what you do.
  • 2
    Meta descriptionThe summary under your name in search results is either too brief to say anything or long enough that Google cuts it mid-sentence.
  • 3
    Page titleThe headline on your home page is either a single word or long enough that a search result cuts it off part way through.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

iRazor Haircuts in Northlands Mall shows strong timing alignment with local demand. Most peak windows are covered, notably late-morning and early afternoon on Saturdays and midday Tuesdays. There are five brief missed high-demand hours: weekday evenings and early Sunday morning. No low-demand open hours were identified, so overall hours look efficient with a few targeted evening openings worth considering.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Hours aligned with demandNo business here matches the demand around it more closely than you do - you are open when people are looking and shut when they are not.
