01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Little Clicks Photography shows a below-average health score with room for improvement. The strongest points are that the listing is claimed, has a phone number, and shows a complete address, plus an open-for-business status. The main opportunities are adding a website link and a substantial, meaningful description to inform potential customers about services and differentiators.

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
    WebsiteYour listing has no website link, so a customer who wants to check your prices or your work before ringing has nowhere to go from Google.
  • 2
    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.
  • 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

Little Clicks Photography shows an above-average health score of 5.9/10 on Google reviews. The top finding is a star rating in the top 10%, indicating strong customer satisfaction. The business has not yet engaged with any reviews, which may affect customer trust and responsiveness in the eyes of clients.

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 customers find you

Little Clicks Photography shows an overall healthy online presence with a 5.3 out of 10 health score. The strongest current asset is the Facebook profile, rated very high trust, suggesting solid audience engagement and consistent branding. The other platforms have gaps that, if addressed, could broaden local visibility and 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.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    Family Company StudioWe can see your Family Company Studio listing (https://thefamilycompany.co.nz/little-clicks-photography) found via: Google search results.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.

05Facebook pageMarketbase business report

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.
  • ✓
    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
    People following your pageFewer people follow your page than most in this market, which means a post reaches people who already know you rather than anyone still deciding.
  • 2
    Recommendations on your pageA couple of recommendations have landed on the page, fewer than most here.
  • 3
    A phone numberNo phone number is published on your Facebook page, so someone who found you there and wants to ring has to go hunting elsewhere or send a message and wait.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Little Clicks Photography shows a below-average on-page SEO health score of 3.6/10 for the homepage, indicating significant gaps in technical optimisation that affect visibility. The top findings highlight missing meta description and title tag, no on-page SEO baseline, and absence of a valid favicon, with an H1 tag also missing. Addressing these areas will establish baseline SEO signals and improve click-through potential.

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
    Domain HealthYour website did not come back healthy when we tried it, and anyone clicking through from your Google listing is meeting whatever we met.
  • 2
    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.

How people find you on Google

Little Clicks Photography shows a cautious health score for website traffic at 4.7/10, indicating room for improvement in organic and paid traffic. The strongest finding is that organic traffic value and traffic totals are near zero, suggesting the site needs higher quality content and local focus. A second key point is the absence of top-100 organic keywords that limits visibility.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Little Clicks Photography shows partial alignment with Christchurch demand. Open slots on Friday 10am, 4-6pm and Saturday 11am match high local search activity. However the studio is closed across several Monday midday and early afternoon peaks and midweek lunchtime on Wednesday. A few open times fall in lower-demand windows (Friday early afternoon, Sunday morning and evening, Saturday late afternoon), suggesting modest opportunity to tweak hours.
