Your Google listing

Malimali Dental's Google Business Listing has an above-average health score of 6.1 out of 10. The listing is claimed and includes the business name, website link, trading status and phone number, giving customers reliable ways to find and contact the clinic. The main gaps are a shorter-than-typical description and limited category coverage, which may reduce visibility for relevant searches.

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 two opportunities

  • 1
    Description lengthYour description is far shorter than what most businesses here have written, which means a customer comparing listings gets a line from you and three paragraphs from the business beside 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.

Your reviews

Malimali Dental has a very high Google review health score of 9.5 out of 10. Its rating, review volume, response rate and confidence are all performing strongly against local peers. The main focus is protecting that position by watching for sudden clusters of poor ratings, maintaining a steady flow of new reviews and continuing the weekly habit of responding to customers.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Star ratingYour rating sits ahead of half the businesses here, so the number is not pushing anyone away.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    Response rateYou answer nearly all your reviews, which is more than almost anyone in this market, and a customer reading the page sees a two-sided conversation rather than a scoreboard.

Where you show up on the map

Malimali Dental has a below average Maps Search Performance health score of 3.1 out of 10. The clinic ranks in the top six for several Onehunga searches, including cosmetic dentist, dental implants provider, dental clinic, dental hygienist and dentist. However, overall and local visibility remains limited, with the business appearing in fewer searches than many nearby businesses. Reviews are the clearest opportunity to improve reach.

Where customers find you

Malimali Dental has a Very high citations and social presence health score of 9.8 out of 10. Strong, trusted Facebook and Instagram profiles, along with listings on White Pages, Dentist NZ and Healthpoint, give customers reliable ways to identify the clinic. The main gaps are missing TikTok, LinkedIn, Yelp, Infobel and Cylex profiles, which limit visibility on those platforms.

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

Malimali Dental's Facebook page is above average overall, with a health score of 6.3 out of 10. Its 10,135 followers provide a substantial audience that can hear updates without paid advertising. Customers can also find a phone number, email address, street address and cover photo. The main gaps are a Facebook-generated page address, a brief intro and a link to a booking or listing platform.

Strengths

  • ✓
    People following your pageYours is one of the largest local followings in this market.
  • ✓
    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.
  • 2
    What your page says about youYour intro runs to a line, shorter than most pages here, so it names the business without settling whether you do the particular job the reader came about or cover the suburb they live in.
  • 3
    Where your page link pointsYour page points customers at a booking system or directory rather than a site of your own.

Your hours against demand

Malimali Dental's hours are well aimed: they cover 68% of the week's customer traffic and avoid quiet periods, leaving one clear gap. Saturday 9am to 3pm is a closed period while customers are busy, so they meet a closed door. Malimali Dental should open Saturday 9am to 1pm, letting customers arrive and be served during the busiest part of that period.
