01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Riccarton Florist shows moderate health on Google Business Listing with a score of 4.3 out of 10, indicating room for improvement. The listing already provides a website link, a claimed status, an open-for-business indicator, a listing title, and a phone number. The two most important findings are the missing logo and ongoing photo collection growth, which can help boost visibility and engagement.

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
    Description lengthYour description gives a reader less than half the listings here do, so someone reading yours and then a competitor's gets less to go on from you.
  • 3
    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.

Your reviews

Riccarton Florist shows a high overall health in Google reviews with a score of 7.6 out of 10. The business has made solid progress in rating confidence, review volume, and engagement. Key findings highlight growth in average rating, ongoing collection of reviews, and a strong response rate among local competitors, indicating steady customer satisfaction and good owner interaction.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Response rateYou answer virtually every review, which almost nobody in this market does, and the page reads as a business that is present.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Review confidenceRating and review volume together sit well behind this market, which means a customer comparing you has both halves of the picture reading thin.
  • 2
    Review countYour review count sits well below what buyers here are used to seeing, which means a customer comparing options side by side reads you as the less proven choice.
  • 3
    Star ratingYour rating sits ahead of half the businesses here, so the number is not pushing anyone away.

Strengths

Top two opportunities

  • 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.
  • 2
    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across more of the surrounding suburbs than nearly everyone here, so a customer searching well outside your own patch still sees you.

Where customers find you

Riccarton Florist shows below-average health for social presence (2.9/10), indicating limited reach across key channels. The strongest current asset is Facebook, with a very high trust score and active engagement. Key takeaway is the need to expand profiles beyond Facebook to improve visibility and trust in local directories.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Riccarton Florist shows a very high on-page SEO health score of 9.1 out of 10, indicating strong technical optimisation for the homepage. The most notable strengths are a valid favicon, a relevant title tag, an existing H1 tag, an SEO-friendly URL and secure HTTPS resources, which support visibility and trust for local customers.

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
    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.
  • 2
    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.
  • 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.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Riccarton Florist's opening hours mostly match local demand: 61 well-aligned peak hours and no low-demand open hours. Strong alignment includes Sunday 2-4pm, Saturday 2pm and Thursday 11am when searches peak. Missed opportunities occur early weekday mornings and Sunday evenings (eg. Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday 8am, and Sunday 5-6pm). Consider slight evening or early-morning extensions where demand is proven.

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.
