01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Musa's Barber Addington shows a strong Google Business listing with a health score of 8.1 out of 10. The listing has essential details complete and verified, including an open-for-business status, a website link, a listing title, claimed status, and a visible phone number. The primary opportunities are to improve the listing description further and push towards top-10% photo counts to remain competitive.

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
    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.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    Photos on the listingYou carry more photos than most of this market, which gives a customer a real look at the work before they ring.

Your reviews

Musa's Barber Addington shows a very high health score on Google Business reviews, indicating strong overall performance. The most notable finding is a top-tier total review count, which reinforces trust and social proof among local customers. The overall rating and engagement metrics also point to consistent customer satisfaction and effective response habits.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Review countYou hold one of the deepest review banks in this market - social proof that does its own selling.

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

Musa's Barber Addington shows a solid health score with room to improve visibility in Google Maps searches. The strongest findings are top rankings for barber shop in Addington-Middleton and barber shop in Lincoln, indicating good local demand, and steady growth in the borough. Focused gains in subtotal borough presence could shift more local queries to the business.

Strengths

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

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across more of the surrounding suburbs than the middle of the field, so customers searching from outside your own patch are finding you.

Where customers find you

Musa's Barber Addington shows an overall health score of 6.8 out of 10, indicating above-average presence with room to strengthen key channels. The strongest achievement is a very high-trust Facebook profile and an active Fresha listing. Opportunities include enhancing TikTok trust and establishing LinkedIn presence for individuals and the company.

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/musas-barber-addington-christchurch-263-lincoln-road-lc0wyrdd) found via: Google search results, Your website.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Tiktok ProfileWe found your Tiktok Profile page through search alone, with nothing on your own website or your Google listing pointing at it.
  • 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.

05Facebook pageMarketbase business report

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    A cover photoYour page opens with a cover photo rather than a blank banner, so the first impression a visitor gets is your own work.

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
    Where your page link pointsThe link on your page sends people to another feed or a links page rather than to a site of your own, so someone chasing a price ends up one more tap from the answer and scrolls until the errand is forgotten.
  • 3
    Recommendations on your pageYou hold fewer recommendations than the middle of this market.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Musa's Barber Addington shows a strong on-page health score of 8.0 out of 10, indicating solid technical setup. The page loads in under 3 seconds and has a valid H1 tag and HTTPS resources, contributing to good user experience and trust. The most notable findings are a near-ideal page speed and a strong content base, with room to tighten meta description and title tag.

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.
  • ✓
    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 youOnly a handful of separate websites link to yours, well behind most of this market.
  • 2
    Meta descriptionThe summary under your name in search results is either too brief to say anything or long enough that Google cuts it mid-sentence.
  • 3
    The shape of your link profileYour links are piled onto a small number of sites for a profile this size, so they are doing less for you than the count suggests.

How people find you on Google

Musa's Barber Addington shows a solid health score for website traffic with room to grow paid activity while organic value is mid-range. The strongest finding is impressive organic traffic total locally; paid metrics are currently underdeveloped and need targeted campaigns and landing pages to capture more visitors and conversions.

Strengths

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

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    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

Musa's Barber Addington shows strong timing alignment with local demand, especially late mornings and early afternoons on Tuesdays and Saturdays. Several popular Saturday midday hours are open, matching customer searches. There are some missed chances: several popular 9 am slots and a Sunday late-afternoon hour when the shop is closed. Overall hours are efficient with no low-demand open times noted.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Hours aligned with demandNo business here matches the demand around it more closely than you do - you are open when people are looking and shut when they are not.
