Your Google listing

Lincoln Village Vets shows an overall listing health of 2.9 out of 10, indicating below-average completeness and optimisation. The strongest signals are that the listing is claimed, shows open-for-business status, has a listing title, a website link, and a phone number. The main opportunities lie in adding a logo, expanding the description, and increasing photo uploads to improve engagement.

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
    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

Lincoln Village Vets shows an even health score of 5.1 out of 10, indicating average overall health for Google reviews. The strongest point is a solid total of reviews and a decent star rating trajectory, while a key gap is the absence of responses to any reviews. Addressing response rate could boost customer trust without changing the core rating.

Strengths

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.

Where you show up on the map

Lincoln Village Vets shows a below-average health score of 3.2 out of 10 for Google Maps search visibility. Overall health suggests some presence in broader maps queries, with room to climb. Suburb-level visibility is at or above the local median, indicating solid momentum that can be built on to reach top performers.

Strengths

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 more often than the middle of your suburb, so a customer searching nearby is likely to see you in the first handful.

Where customers find you

Citations & Social Presence shows Lincoln Village Vets with a below-average health score of 3.2 out of 10. The business already has a strong Facebook presence and a GrabOne listing, which are solid foundations. Key opportunities focus on expanding social profiles (Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Yellow and Neighbourly) to improve local visibility and trust, aligning listings with the business name.

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.
  • ✓
    TopVet PracticeWe can see your TopVet Practice listing (https://topvet.net/lincoln-village-vets-27001) 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.

05Facebook pageMarketbase business report

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    An email addressCustomers can see an email address on the page, which gives the one who wants a quote in writing a route that does not depend on anyone picking up the phone.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Where your page link pointsNothing in your page details points at a website, so a visitor who has read your posts and wants prices, hours or a booking form has nowhere to go next but back to search - where your competitors are waiting.
  • 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
    A street addressYour page publishes no street address, so someone deciding whether you are near enough to bother with has nothing to check and moves on to a page that tells them.

Your hours against demand

Lincoln Village Vets shows a mixed fit between published hours and local demand. Peak alignment is strong midweek afternoons, notably Tuesday and Thursday at 3-4pm and Wednesday 4pm. Several Saturday morning and midday peaks are missed because the clinic is closed. There are no low-demand open hours, which means current open times avoid obvious inefficiency but leave clear weekend opportunity to capture more customers.
