01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

LMS Drafting and Design shows a solid presence on Google Business with a health score of 7.6 out of 10. The listing already provides a phone number and website link, and it is claimed and open-for-business, which supports clear customer contact and visibility. The description is mid-range in length and the photo count is strong but can improve further.

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 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.
  • 3
    Photos on the listingYou carry more photos than most of this market, which gives a customer a real look at the work before they ring.

02ReviewsMarketbase business report

Your reviews

LMS Drafting and Design shows a very high overall health on Google reviews, indicating strong customer satisfaction and solid social proof. A key takeaway is the outstanding rating and top 10% performance for total reviews, which support credibility with potential clients. The main area for improvement is the lack of response to any reviews, which could undermine customer trust if not addressed.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Review confidenceRating and volume together put you at the head of this market: well rated, with enough reviews behind it that a customer takes the number seriously.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    Review countYou hold one of the deepest review banks in this market - social proof that does its own selling.

Top opportunity

    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

The business ranks highly in borough searches and holds top positions for core keywords related to architecture and design in Casebrook, Northwood and Redwood. This solid base supports steady nearby visibility and inbound interest from local clients.

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.
  • ✓
    Maps visibility in your own suburbNo business in your suburb turns up in local Maps searches more often than you do - for a customer searching nearby, you are among the first names on the screen.

Where customers find you

LMS Drafting and Design shows a low overall health for social presence, with a 2.5 out of 10. The strongest current asset is the Facebook Profile with very high trust and recognition. Opportunities focus on creating or reviving Instagram and TikTok profiles, and improving Yellow Directory, Yellow Profile, and LinkedIn listings to increase discoverability and trust.

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.
  • ✓

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
    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.
  • 3
    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.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

The on-page SEO health of the LMS Drafting and Design homepage is very low, with a health score of 1.4 out of 10. Key findings include the absence of a detectable Title Tag and Meta Description, and no valid favicon, making it harder for search engines and customers to understand and trust the site.

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
    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.
  • 2
    Separate sites linking to youNo separate website links to yours.
  • 3
    Meta descriptionYour pages carry no summary line of your own, so the two lines under your name in search results are whatever Google decides best fits the search.

Your hours against demand

LMS Drafting and Design shows partial alignment with local demand: several weekday lunch slots match higher search activity (notably midweek 11am-1pm), but the practice is closed across key weekend lunchtime peaks - a significant missed opportunity. No hours are open during low-demand periods, so current schedule is efficient in avoiding waste but may forgo substantial Saturday and Sunday enquiries.
