01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

L.Y.B Nails & Beauty shows solid control of its Google Business Listing, with a health score of 7.7 out of 10. The listing already has a claimed status, a website link, a phone number, and clear open-for-business status, which helps new customers find essential details quickly. Key strength lies in listing completeness and verified ownership.

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 more than most listings here do, so a customer choosing between three of you gets more of your case than of theirs.
  • 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 have more photos on your listing than half the businesses here, so a customer arriving has enough to look at that they stay on it.

Your reviews

L.Y.B Nails & Beauty shows a moderate overall health on Google reviews, with a 5.1 out of 10 health score. The top finding is an excellent star rating, placing the business in the top 10% for customer satisfaction. It has room to improve engagement, as the response rate to reviews is only beginning to rise.

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 rateYou have replied to a small share of your reviews, so most customers reading your page still see feedback about you with no voice from you anywhere on it.
  • 2
    Review countYour review count sits above the middle of this market, which puts you in the group customers read as established rather than untested.
  • 3
    Review confidenceRating and volume together put you ahead of most of this market, which means a customer sees a well-rated business with enough reviews behind it to be believed.

Where you show up on the map

L.Y.B Nails & Beauty shows a below-average overall health in Google Maps in Christchurch, indicating scope for improvement in visibility. The strongest signals come from being well-ranked for several Christchurch centre keywords related to nails and beauty, suggesting steady brand presence in core services. Opportunities lie in boosting aggregate map visibility and strengthening local borough rankings.

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

L.Y.B Nails & Beauty shows a healthy online presence with high trust on key social profiles, though opportunities exist to broaden reach on platforms like TikTok, Neighbourly, Yellow, GrabOne and Yellow Directory. Strengths include very high trust on Facebook and Instagram, plus visibility via Fresha and TikTok directory entries. Overall health remains solid.

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.

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.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    Fresha ProfileWe could not find an active Fresha 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

  • ✓
    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
    A page address you choseYour page address is one Facebook generated rather than one you chose - your business name with a long number bolted on, or just the number.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

L.Y.B Nails & Beauty shows a solid on-page SEO health with a score of 7.4 out of 10, indicating strengths but some room for improvement. Key strengths include a valid favicon, a fast-loading page under 256KB, a relevant meta description, and a present H1 and title tag that help clarity and SEO. Overall health suggests steady performance with targeted tweaks needed.

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

The Website Traffic health for L.Y.B Nails & Beauty shows an above-average score of 6.1 out of 10, indicating reasonable performance with room for improvement. Key findings point to paid traffic and paid keywords as the main gaps, while organic traffic value and SERP positions are stronger and improving. Focused adjustments in paid campaigns and continued organic growth can lift overall performance.

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.

    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.
