01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

RMM Landscape Architects shows a healthy Google Business Listing with an 8.2/10 health score. The listing already includes a website link, a title, claimed status, a visible open/closed status, and a phone number. The main opportunities relate to photos and the description: photos should be refreshed to rise above the local midpoint, while the description is already around the midpoint and can be optimised further.

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
    Photos on the listingThere are more pictures on most listings around you than on yours, so a customer flicking between them gets a fuller look at the businesses either side of you.
  • 3
    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.

Your reviews

RMM Landscape Architects shows a moderate health score with room for improvement in engagement and review volume. The top finding is a lack of response to existing reviews, which can undermine trust, alongside steady growth in total reviews and a solid rating trajectory.

Strengths

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

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 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
    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.

Where you show up on the map

RMM Landscape Architects shows a high Maps health score with solid aggregate visibility, and notably strong performance for several local areas. The top finding is that borough-level presence is still limited despite good overall progress, indicating room to improve local search in Ōtautahi Christchurch and surrounding suburbs. The business ranks well for several landscape keywords in key Christchurch suburbs.

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, but below most businesses in your suburb, so a customer looking from a nearby street is shown someone else first.
  • 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

RMM Landscape Architects shows a modest health rating with several active profiles and strong brand trust on Instagram, complemented by an established LinkedIn presence. The key finding is lack of active Facebook, TikTok, and other listings, which limits local reach and customer discovery.

Strengths

  • ✓
    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
    Having a Facebook page at allWe could not find an active Facebook Profile page for your business, so anyone who goes there to check your hours, read your posts or send a message lands on nothing.
  • 2
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 3
    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.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

RMM Landscape Architects shows a very high on-page SEO health score of 8.6 out of 10, indicating solid technical optimisation and fast load times. Key findings highlight excellent meta description and a valid favicon, plus a title tag that clearly reflects page content. Attention remains on improving content length and avoiding render-blocking resources to push into the elite tier.

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.
  • ✓
    Meta descriptionYour search summary sits in the length that reads in full on most screens, which is as far as length alone can take it - a narrow phone still cuts the tail off a line this size.
  • ✓
    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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    The shape of your link profileYour links come from fewer separate sites than most profiles the size of yours.
  • 2
    Domain Age ScoreYour domain is younger than most businesses here.
  • 3
    Separate sites linking to youMore separate websites link to you than half the businesses here, so a reasonable spread of places vouch for you.

How people find you on Google

RMM Landscape Architects shows strong overall health for Website Traffic, with an 8.8/10 score. Organic metrics remain solid, especially top 10% for organic traffic. The strongest takeaway is sustained organic value and traffic, while paid traffic remains underutilised and needs targeted action to begin generating measurable results.

Strengths

  • ✓
    What that traffic is worthThe search visitors reaching your site are worth more than almost any business in this market - an enquiry stream with no cost per click behind it.

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
    Search terms you advertise onYou are not covering any search terms with ads, which for most local businesses here is normal.

Your hours against demand

RMM Landscape Architects' published hours largely match midweek lunch-hour demand, with strong alignment on Tuesday 12pm, Wednesday 11am-12pm and Thursday 12-1pm. However, the practice is closed across the busiest weekend search windows-especially Saturday 12-2pm and Sunday 12pm-representing clear missed opportunities. No hours are open during low-demand windows, so there's little apparent temporal waste.
