01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Kawakawa Clinic Remedial Massage Therapy shows an overall health of 3.0 out of 10 for Google Business Listing, indicating below-average health and room for improvement. The most important findings are: a basic listing description is in place, and the listing has a claimed status with a visible phone number and website link, which helps customer access. There is no logo yet, and photo volume is limited but increasing.

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 is far shorter than what most businesses here have written, which means a customer comparing listings gets a line from you and three paragraphs from the business beside you.
  • 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 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.

Your reviews

Kawakawa Clinic Remedial Massage Therapy shows a strong health score of 8.4 out of 10 in Google reviews, indicating solid customer satisfaction and steady review volume. The clinic should note that the main improvement area is responding to reviews, as there has been no owner responses yet, which can affect trust. Other metrics are performing well, with rating and volume in the top quartile.

Where customers find you

Kawakawa Clinic Remedial Massage Therapy shows an average health in Citations & Social Presence, with strong Facebook credibility and several gaps across other platforms. The most solid finding is the outstanding Facebook profile, which supports trust and awareness. The top opportunities focus on expanding presence on Instagram, TikTok, Neighbourly, LinkedIn and Yellow Directory to broaden reach and trust.

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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Instagram ProfileWe found your Instagram Profile page through search alone, with no link from your own website and nothing on your Google listing.
  • 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
    People following your pageFewer people follow your page than follow half the pages here.
  • 2
    What your page says about youYour intro is shorter than half the pages here.
  • 3

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Kawakawa Clinic Remedial Massage Therapy shows a very low on-page SEO health score (1.2/10). The two most critical findings are missing meta description and missing title tag for the homepage, plus no detected on-page SEO score. Addressing these will meaningfully improve visibility and click-through rates, with favicon and render-blocking optimizations also important.

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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    On-page scoreYour home page did not return anything we can measure, and a page that will not answer a scanner is usually the same page that keeps a customer waiting.
  • 2
    Separate sites linking to youNo separate website links to yours.
  • 3
    Meta descriptionYour pages carry no summary line of your own, so the two lines under your name in search results are whatever Google decides best fits the search.

How people find you on Google

Kawakawa Clinic Remedial Massage Therapy shows a very low overall website traffic health score of 1.3/10. The most important findings are near-zero organic traffic value and no organic keywords ranking in the top 100, indicating minimal visibility. Some paid activity exists but data suggests limited or unclear paid spend and traffic.

Your hours against demand

Kawakawa Clinic Remedial Massage Therapy shows mixed alignment between opening hours and customer demand. Strong alignment exists mid-morning on Tuesday and Thursday (10-11am) and Wednesday mid-afternoon (3pm). However, several high-demand slots are missed: Monday early afternoon (1-3pm) and Tuesday and Thursday at 9am. No open hours fall in low-demand periods, but missed peak hours suggest potential to shift or extend sessions into the busiest windows.
