Your Google listing

MPower Pilates shows a below-average Google Business Listing health with a 3.3/10. Key strengths include a claimed listing, an existing title, a website link, a phone number, and a detailed description in the top 10% for clarity. The main opportunities are to update the open-for-business status, add a logo, and continue adding photos to improve visibility and listing completeness.

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
    LogoYour listing has no logo, so in a list of local results yours is the one with a blank space where every competitor has a mark.
  • 2
    Photos on the listingYou have fewer photos than nearly every business here, so a customer comparing you against them builds a picture of their work and guesses at yours.
  • 3
    Category fitYour category set is one of the better-fitted in this market, so you are eligible for nearly every search happening around you.

Your reviews

MPower Pilates shows an above-average Google review health score of 5.9 out of 10. The key completed achievement is a top-10% star rating, indicating high customer satisfaction. A notable opportunity is improving engagement by responding to reviews, which can build trust with customers alongside maintaining the strong rating.

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 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.
  • 2
    Review confidenceYour rating and your review count together sit behind half the businesses here, so a customer weighing three listings has slightly less reason to trust yours.
  • 3
    Review countYour review count sits under the middle of this market, so you are readable to a customer without yet being convincing.

Where you show up on the map

MPower Pilates shows very low overall visibility in Google Maps with a health score of 1.4 out of 10. The strongest performance is in a few rankings where the studio appears around position 6 for a Christchuch centre Pilates keyword, while other local terms show limited presence. Focus should be on lifting overall maps visibility and boosting local borough results.

Where customers find you

MPower Pilates shows very high health (9.7/10) in the citations and social presence area, indicating a strong overall digital footprint. Key strengths are outstanding Instagram and Facebook profiles with very high trust scores. The main opportunities relate to improving presence on TikTok, Neighbourly, LinkedIn, Yellow, and TikTok directories to boost 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.
  • ✓
    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 turned up your Tiktok Profile page, but only barely, and nothing you own points at it - your website does not link to it and it is not on your Google listing.
  • 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 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.
  • ✓
    A street addressA street address sits in your page details, so someone deciding between you and a business two suburbs over can see which of you is closer.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    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

MPower Pilates shows below average on-page SEO health with a 3.2/10. Strengths include a valid favicon, a clear title tag, an SEO-friendly URL, a relevant meta description, and secure content over HTTPS. The top opportunities target meta description absence, overall on-page SEO score, title tag length, render-blocking resources, and presence of an H1 tag. The main takeaway is to address the meta description and H1 to improve click-through and clarity for visitors and search engines.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Domain HealthYour site answers cleanly over a secure connection, so a customer clicking through from Google lands where they expect with nothing in the way.
  • ✓
    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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Separate sites linking to youNo separate website links to yours.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    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.

How people find you on Google

MPower Pilates shows average health with room for improvement in website traffic. Key findings indicate paid traffic is not yet measurable and paid spend is unclear, while organic traffic value is mid-range and organic rankings sit around mid-local percentile. Focus on targeted paid campaigns and continued content/SEO work to lift performance.

    What that traffic is worthThe search visitors reaching your site are worth less than half the businesses here, so the people arriving are browsing rather than buying.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

MPower Pilates currently has no recorded opening-hours, so no precise hour-by-hour alignment can be calculated. The analysis therefore cannot identify specific hours that match or miss local demand. The studio's temporal performance score is very low (0.8/10). Adding published opening hours will enable identification of peak windows, missed opportunities and inefficient low-demand openings.
