Your Google listing

Shalom Law shows strong basic setup on Google Business Profile with a health score of 4.8 out of 10, indicating room for improvement. Current strengths include a claimed listing, a visible website link, an active phone number, and accurate Open-for-Business status. The most impactful opportunities are adding a logo and expanding the listing description to improve visibility and rankings.

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
    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
    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.
  • 3
    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.

Your reviews

Shalom Law shows a healthy Google review profile with a 7.3/10 health score. The top achievement is a stellar star rating in the top 10%, indicating strong client satisfaction. The remaining focus should be on improving engagement by responding to reviews and sustaining review momentum to reach the midpoint in total reviews.

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 under the middle of this market, so you are readable to a customer without yet being convincing.
  • 3
    Review confidenceYour rating and your review count together sit ahead of half the field here, so a customer has enough to go on and no reason to hesitate.

Where customers find you

Shalom Law shows a very low health in social presence, indicating limited exposure across key platforms. The strongest takeaway is the need to establish active profiles on Instagram and Facebook to boost local visibility and trust, with additional opportunities on TikTok and LinkedIn to broaden reach.

Your website

Shalom Law's on-page technical health is low, with a health score of 2.0 out of 10. This indicates significant room for improvement in core factors such as meta tags, favicon, and overall page structure, which affect search visibility and click-throughs for potential clients.

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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    On-page scoreYour home page did not return anything we can measure, and a page that will not answer a scanner is usually the same page that keeps a customer waiting.
  • 2

How people find you on Google

Shalom Law's Website Traffic health is low, reflecting limited organic and paid activity. The strongest signal is room to grow in organic visibility, with opportunities to publish local content and improve on-page SEO to start ranking. A small paid effort could begin to capture relevant local inquiries, while refining keywords can support gradual traffic growth.

Your hours against demand

Shalom Law's published hours align well with weekday lunchtime and mid-morning demand in Christchurch, especially around Tuesday and Thursday. The firm is open during several high-demand windows that match local search patterns, and there are no low-demand open hours. However there are notable missed opportunities on weekend afternoons and early Friday mornings when local demand is strong but the practice is closed.
