01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

LAAND's Google Business listing shows a below-average health score of 3.4 out of 10, indicating room for significant improvement in the listing's completeness and attractiveness. The most important findings include a claimed listing with an accessible phone number and website link, and an open-for-business status, which support customer access. The listing could benefit from adding photos, a logo, and a fuller description to engage potential clients.

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
    Photos on the listingYou have no photos on your listing, or close to none, so a customer scrolling past sees a blank where every other business shows their work.
  • 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

LAAND shows a low Google Business health score, indicating limited customer engagement and review activity. The top opportunities focus on building trust through more reviews, responding to feedback, and boosting the overall rating through consistent positive experiences.

Strengths

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Review confidenceYour rating and your review count together put you at the bottom of this market - either the rating is low, or there are too few reviews behind it for anyone to trust it.
  • 2
    Star ratingYou have no star rating yet, so a customer scanning results sees an empty space where every other business shows a number.
  • 3
    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.

Where you show up on the map

LAAND shows an average health score on Google Maps with room to improve. Key positives include a solid showing for landscape architect and architecture-related terms in Clifton-Sumner, indicating strong relevance to local clients. The top opportunities focus on lifting the aggregate maps score and strengthening the borough presence to broaden visibility.

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

LAAND shows mixed social presence health, with an overall score of 3.6 out of 10, indicating below-average visibility. The strongest asset is Instagram, which already demonstrates a very high trust score and active engagement, while LinkedIn Company is present but less impactful for local reach. Opportunities lie in establishing profiles on Facebook, TikTok, GrabOne and Neighbourly directories to broaden reach.

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.
  • ✓
    LinkedIn CompanyWe can see your LinkedIn Company listing (https://linkedin.com/company/laandstudio) found via: Your website.

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

LAAND's on-page health sits at 5.9 out of 10, which is above average for local firms. Key strengths include a valid favicon, secure content via HTTPS, no frames, an SEO-friendly URL, and a page under 256KB. The main opportunities are refining the meta description, nudging the title tag into the ideal range, reducing render-blocking resources, and adding a dedicated H1 tag to guide search engines and visitors.

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.
  • ✓
    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 load speedYour home page appears in under three seconds, so someone tapping through from a search result meets your business rather than a blank screen while they decide whether to wait.

Top three opportunities

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

How people find you on Google

LAAND's Website Traffic health is below average with a score of 4.1/10, indicating room for improvement in both paid and organic traffic. Key findings show paid activity is almost non-existent and paid keyword visibility is minimal, while organic traffic and keyword footprint are modestly above the bottom quartile and could be improved with fundamentals and navigation tweaks.

Strengths

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

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    What that traffic is worthThe search visitors reaching your site are worth less than most businesses here, which means the work coming in arrives through word of mouth and repeat customers rather than through people searching for what you do.
  • 2
    What you spend on adsWe can see no paid search activity for your site, which in most local markets is the norm rather than a gap.
  • 3
    Monthly search visitsYour site draws fewer visitors from search than most businesses here, so most people looking for what you do are landing somewhere else.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

LAAND's published hours show partial alignment with local demand: the studio is open during weekday lunchtime peaks on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday (11am-1pm windows) but is closed for high-demand periods on weekend middays. There are no open hours during low-demand times, so no obvious waste. Significant missed demand occurs on Saturdays midday and Sunday midday when searches are highest.
