Your Google listing

Mood Hair Salon shows a very healthy Google Business Listing, with a score of 8.6 out of 10. Strengths include a claimed listing, open-for-business status, a website link, a listing title, and a phone number. The profile already meets key fields, and photos and description are performing well for local comparison.

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
    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.
  • 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

Mood Hair Salon shows a very high overall health on Google Business Reviews, with a health score of 9.8 out of 10. The strongest signals are outstanding rating confidence and a brilliant star rating, both in the top 10% and indicating high customer satisfaction. The business also benefits from a strong review base and a high response rate within the top quartile for engaged owners.

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.

Top two 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
    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

Mood Hair Salon shows a very high overall health in Google Maps search results (9.3/10). The business ranks well for key terms in New Brighton, including hair salon and unisex hairdresser, indicating strong local visibility. The next focus is extending performance beyond the current borough to improve across more suburbs.

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.

Top opportunity

  • 1
    Maps visibility in your own suburbYou show up in local Maps searches more often than the middle of your suburb, so a customer searching nearby is likely to see you in the first handful.

Where customers find you

Mood Hair Salon shows very high health in Citations & Social Presence with a score of 9.5/10. The strongest current strengths are outstanding Instagram and Facebook profiles, both with very high trust scores, plus a well-maintained Fresha listing and directory presence. The two key opportunities are strengthening the TikTok profile linkages and establishing NoSecretSalon, LinkedIn owner presence, and a LinkedIn Company Page to boost professional credibility.

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.
  • ✓
    Fresha ProfileWe can see your Fresha Profile listing (https://fresha.com/mood-hair-salon-christchurch-18l-bower-avenue-e9y0933l) found via: Google search results.

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
    Neighbourly ProfileWe could not find an active Neighbourly 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 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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    People following your pageYour following sits ahead of half the pages here, so an ordinary post reaches a real local audience without you paying for it.
  • 3
    Recommendations on your pageMore customers have recommended you than at most pages in this market, and depth like that reads as a business that has been doing this a while.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Mood Hair Salon shows a very high on-page SEO health score of 8.8 out of 10, indicating strong technical optimisation for the homepage. The most notable findings are a valid favicon, fast page load under 3 seconds, a compact page size, and a present H1 tag, all contributing to solid crawlability and user trust.

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
    Domain HealthYour site answers, but something did not check out - an insecure link, a redirect chain, a domain shared with other businesses, or a listing pointing at a social page.
  • 2
    Separate sites linking to youMore separate websites link to you than half the businesses here, so a reasonable spread of places vouch for you.
  • 3
    Pages linking to youFewer pages link to you than half the businesses here, which means a customer researching your trade reads someone else's explanation of it rather than yours.

How people find you on Google

Mood Hair Salon shows a solid overall health score for website traffic, with room to grow paid activity and maintain organic momentum. Key findings indicate paid traffic is currently lacking and paid visibility should be introduced, while organic performance is mid-range and continuing to improve. Targeted small campaigns and improved landing pages can help capture more potential clients.

Your hours against demand

Mood Hair Salon's opening hours largely match local demand peaks, especially mid-morning to early afternoon on Tuesdays and Saturdays. The salon is open during several high-demand windows but misses a handful of popular evening slots around 5pm on weekdays and late Saturday afternoon. There are no hours open during low-demand periods, so operating time appears efficient overall.
