01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Mia's Hair Studio shows a healthy Google Business Listing with a 7.4 out of 10 health score. The listing is claimed, open status is accurate, and contact details are present, helping customers reach the salon easily. The business benefits from a direct website link and a visible listing title and phone number, indicating good basic setup and visibility.

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
    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.
  • 3
    Category fitYour categories cover this market better than the middle of the field, so you appear in most of the searches your competitors appear in.

Your reviews

Mia's Hair Studio shows a very high overall health score in Google reviews, indicating strong satisfaction and engagement. The business benefits from a solid review base and good response rates, with room to edge closer to the top 10% in ratings and consistency. The focus is on maintaining the current trust while nudging slightly for more reviews and engagement.

Strengths

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

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Review countYour review count sits above the middle of this market, which puts you in the group customers read as established rather than untested.
  • 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
    Star ratingYour rating is higher than most of this market, and it is the first thing a customer reads about you.

Where you show up on the map

Mia's Hair Studio shows a low overall health in Google Maps search, with a 2.5 out of 10. This indicates limited visibility across maps queries. Top opportunities focus on improving both aggregate map visibility and local borough performance, to move the business up from its current position.

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, but below most businesses in your suburb, so a customer looking from a nearby street is shown someone else first.

Where customers find you

Mia's Hair Studio shows a very low overall health score for social presence (1.0/10). The strongest current asset is a highly trusted Facebook profile, with ongoing posting and audience engagement that supports brand visibility. A fully updated Fresha listing is also present, helping reach local customers searching services.

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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Instagram ProfileWe could not find an active Instagram Profile profile for your business, so a customer who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 2
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 3
    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.

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

Mia's Hair Studio shows an above-average on-page health with a 5.8/10 score. Strengths include efficient page size, HTTPS-secured resources, and adequate text plus relevant title and meta description. Immediate focus should be on improving meta description, favicon, and load speed to raise the on-page SEO score and reduce potential drop-offs for local searches.

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.
  • ✓
    Page file sizeYour home page is light enough to open quickly on a phone with a weak signal, which is where most people meet a local business for the first time.
  • ✓
    Secure content linksThe links on your site point at secure versions of your pages, so nobody is sent through an unnecessary redirect on the way in.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    On-page scoreSeveral checks on your home page fail at once, and a visitor meets all of them in the first few seconds: a slow open, no clear heading, nothing under your name in search that says what you do.
  • 3
    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

Mia's Hair Studio shows an above-average health score for website traffic, indicating solid overall visibility but room for targeted improvement in paid channels. The most notable findings are that paid traffic remains largely unmeasured and paid SERP coverage is currently non-existent, while organic visibility sits in the 25-50th percentile with potential gains through content and technical optimisations.

Strengths

Your first one is close. Sort an opportunity below and it moves up here.

Top three opportunities

    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.

    Monthly ad visitsYour site receives no visitors from paid search, which for most local businesses in this market is the norm rather than a problem.

    Search terms you rank forYour site appears for fewer search terms than most businesses here, so there are only a handful of ways for someone to come across you.
