Your reviews

The business holds a top 10% star rating and strong credibility, with room to improve by engaging more with customers through responses.

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 countYour review count sits above the middle of this market, which puts you in the group customers read as established rather than untested.
  • 3
    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.

Where you show up on the map

Prosser Builders Limited shows a below-average health score on Google Maps search at 4.2 out of 10. Overall visibility is present but limited; the strongest opportunities lie in continuing to lift aggregate maps results and further improving the borough score in Merivale. Top keywords indicate solid positioning for local design and architecture services in Merivale and Christchurch city areas.

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 less often than half your suburb, so on a search from nearby you sit below businesses a customer would otherwise treat as equal.

Where customers find you

Prosser Builders Limited shows a healthy overall social and directory presence with a health score of 8.3 out of 10.

The top opportunities focus on expanding visibility in platforms not yet active, plus directory listings that can improve discoverability.

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
    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 pageYour following sits ahead of half the pages here, so an ordinary post reaches a real local audience without you paying for it.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Prosser Builders Limited shows a solid on-page SEO health, with a high overall health score and strong foundations in the homepage's technical factors. Key strengths include a valid favicon, an H1 tag, an SEO-friendly URL, a concise page size, and a relevant title tag. The main opportunities focus on refining the title and meta description, and addressing render-blocking resources to improve speed and readability.

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
    Separate sites linking to youFewer separate websites link to you than half the businesses here, which means when someone searches for what you do, the businesses with a longer list of vouchers are the ones on the page they actually read.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    On-page scoreMost checks on your home page pass, so someone clicking through from a search gets a page that opens quickly and says what it is.

Your hours against demand

Prosser Builders' published hours show reasonable alignment with weekday lunchtime demand: open midday on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday (11am-1pm window) when searches are relatively high. However the business is closed through the entire Saturday midday peak and parts of Sunday midday, representing missed footfall and enquiry opportunities. No open-hours fall in low-demand times.
