01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Kula Studio shows a strong overall health on Google Business Listing, with a score of 8.8 out of 10. The listing currently has a direct website link and a claimed status, phone number, and an open/closed indicator, which together support easy customer access. A key finding is that the listing already performs well on description length and stays accessible to customers.

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
    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.
  • 2
    Description lengthYour description gives a reader more than most listings here do, so a customer choosing between three of you gets more of your case than of theirs.
  • 3
    Category fitYour category set covers less of this market than half the field, so there are jobs being searched for near you that your listing is not eligible to appear in.

Your reviews

Kula Studio shows overall health for Google reviews at 5.7 out of 10. The top finding is a high star rating, placing it in the top 10% for customer satisfaction. A key concern is lack of response to any Google reviews, which can affect trust and engagement with customers.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Star ratingYour rating is among the highest in this market and it does its own selling - a customer sees it before they read anything else.

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
    Review confidenceYour rating and your review count together sit behind half the businesses here, so a customer weighing three listings has slightly less reason to trust yours.
  • 3
    Review countYour review count sits under the middle of this market, so you are readable to a customer without yet being convincing.

Where you show up on the map

Kula Studio shows a solid overall health score on Google Maps and a strong local presence with top results for several yoga-related queries. The borough score has risen toward the local midpoint, while the broader region coverage remains in the top quartile, indicating reliable visibility across Christchurch. Maintaining updates could lift rankings further.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Maps visibility across the city groupThere is no wider Maps reach available to a business at your address - you appear across more of the surrounding suburbs than anyone in this market.

Top opportunity

  • 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.

Where customers find you

Kula Studio shows a solid base with strong Instagram and Facebook presences, but overall health sits at 4.5 out of 10. The two strongest findings are outstanding Instagram and Facebook profiles with very high trust scores. Opportunities focus on expanding reach through TikTok, GrabOne, Neighbourly, LinkedIn and Yellow profiles to build a broader local presence.

Strengths

  • ✓
    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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Having a Facebook page at allWe could not find an active Facebook Profile page for your business, so anyone who goes there to check your hours, read your posts or send a message lands on 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.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Kula Studio's on-page SEO health is 7.2 out of 10, indicating solid fundamentals but room for improvement. The most impactful finding is that render-blocking resources and meta description length are opportunities to optimise, with potential gains in load speed and click-through clarity. The current strengths include a strong title tag, a valid favicon, a clear H1, and an SEO-friendly URL.

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.
  • ✓
    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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Separate sites linking to youNo separate website links to yours.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    The shape of your link profileNo links to your site were found, so there is no shape to read yet.
