01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

New Zealand Immigration & Employment Solutions shows a solid health of 7.2 out of 10 for its Google Business Listing, indicating a generally strong presence with room to optimise further. The listing already displays open status, is claimed, includes a website link and a phone number, and has a listing title. The most notable opportunity is refining the listing description to rise above the bottom quartile while maintaining current strengths.

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 category set covers less of this market than half the field, so there are jobs being searched for near you that your listing is not eligible to appear in.

Your reviews

New Zealand Immigration & Employment Solutions shows a very high overall health for Google reviews, with strong trust signals from a high average rating and many reviews. The top highlight is outstanding Google Business Rating Confidence and a brilliant star rating in the top 10%, indicating consistent customer satisfaction. A notable gap is the lack of responses to any reviews, which could affect perceived engagement.

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

Top opportunity

  • 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.

Where you show up on the map

The overall health for New Zealand Immigration & Employment Solutions on Maps is 2.4 out of 10, indicating low visibility. Top findings show the business already ranks for several immigration-related terms in Christchurch and Rangiora, but there is very limited local presence in the Ohoka borough. Improvement should focus on both aggregate and borough maps rankings to raise visibility.

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

New Zealand Immigration & Employment Solutions shows very high health in Marketbase's review, indicating strong social presence and directory trust. The most important findings are outstanding Instagram and Facebook profiles, plus a well-optimised LinkedIn Company listing. The main opportunities to improve are expanding presence on TikTok, Yellow, LinkedIn, GrabOne and TikTok Directory to reach broader audiences.

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.
  • ✓
    LinkedIn CompanyWe can see your LinkedIn Company listing (https://linkedin.com/company/new-zealand-immigration-employment-solutions) 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.

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    People following your pageYours is one of the largest local followings in this market.
  • ✓
    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
    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
    Where your page link pointsYour page points customers at a booking system or directory rather than a site of your own.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

New Zealand Immigration & Employment Solutions shows average on-page health with a 5.3/10 score. Key strengths include a valid favicon, compact page size, clear meta description, no frames, and HTTPS content. Primary opportunities focus on meta description length, on-page SEO score, title tag length, render-blocking resources, and page load time to improve overall search visibility and user experience.

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 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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    On-page scoreThe basics on your home page are half in place: it opens and it reads, but enough checks still fail that a customer on a phone away from wifi notices the wait before they notice the business.
  • 3
    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.

    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.
