01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

LK Cosmetic Tattoo shows a strong health score of 7.3 out of 10, indicating solid overall listing health. The most notable findings are that the listing is claimed and verified, with a visible phone number and website link, and that the listing is open-for-business. Opportunities focus on the description and photo improvements to reach local midpoints.

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 gives a reader less than half the listings here do, so someone reading yours and then a competitor's gets less to go on from you.
  • 2
    Category fitYour categories cover less of this market than nearly every competitor, so someone searching for a job you actually do is shown a list your listing was never entered into.
  • 3
    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.

Your reviews

LK Cosmetic Tattoo shows a very high overall health score in Google reviews, indicating strong customer sentiment and consistent engagement. The strongest current strengths are a top-10% star rating and an elite review response rate, which together support solid reputation and visibility. Opportunities focus on continuing momentum in rating confidence and total reviews.

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.
  • ✓
    Response rateYou answer virtually every review, which almost nobody in this market does, and the page reads as a business that is present.

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    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

The Maps search health for LK Cosmetic Tattoo is low, with a 1.7 out of 10. This indicates limited visibility in Google Maps searches and room for improvement in both city-wide and borough-specific results. Top opportunities focus on boosting aggregate and suburb rankings and aligning the listing details with the queried areas.

Strengths

Top two opportunities

  • 2
    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.

Where customers find you

LK Cosmetic Tattoo shows an above-average health score with room to grow. The strongest current finding is an outstanding Facebook presence and a broader, beneficial Fresha directory listing that supports visibility beyond the core profile. TikTok and Yellow Directory opportunities exist to lift trust and discoverability.

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.

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 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
    Recommendations on your pageNo recommendations sit on your page, so a stranger who came to see whether anyone else has used you leaves with only your own posts to go on.
  • 2

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

LK Cosmetic Tattoo shows an above-average on-page SEO health with a score of 7.0/10. The strongest finding is an outstanding on-page SEO score and a valid favicon plus an H1 tag, which help search visibility and clarity for customers. Opportunities focus on meta description length, title tag length, text-to-page size ratio, and reducing render-blocking resources for faster load times.

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.
  • ✓
    On-page scoreFew sites in this market clear these checks as completely as yours: fast to open, readable, and accurate about itself to Google and to the person who lands on it.
  • ✓
    The shape of your link profileYour links come from about as wide a range of sites as anything in this market, and the mix of link types looks entirely natural.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Meta descriptionThe summary under your name in search results is either too brief to say anything or long enough that Google cuts it mid-sentence.
  • 2
    Page titleThe headline on your home page is either a single word or long enough that a search result cuts it off part way through.

How people find you on Google

LK Cosmetic Tattoo shows moderate overall health for website traffic with a 5.7/10, indicating room for improvement mainly in paid traffic and paid keyword coverage. The top opportunities include starting small paid campaigns with targeted landing pages, and refining organic efforts already above the 25th percentile, plus continuing to optimise navigation and citations.

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

LK Cosmetic Tattoo's opening hours show some clear alignment with customer demand but significant gaps remain. The salon is open during several high-demand late-afternoon and weekend slots, yet it is closed for many popular mid-week afternoon and late-morning periods. No open hours fall in low-demand windows, suggesting the current schedule is concentrated but misses many commercially relevant search peaks.
