Your Google listing

Simply Beauty Christchurch shows a very high health score of 9.0, indicating the Google Business Listing is well optimised. The strongest findings are the open-for-business status and the claimed listing, plus visible website and phone details that make it easy for customers to reach and learn about services.

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
    Photos on the listingYou have more photos on your listing than half the businesses here, so a customer arriving has enough to look at that they stay on it.
  • 2
    Description lengthYour description is one of the fuller ones in this market, which means a customer comparing you side by side has more of your case in front of them than most.

Your reviews

Simply Beauty Christchurch shows a very high Google Business health score and strong customer engagement. The business has an outstanding review engagement rate and a top 10% total reviews, indicating solid social proof. The two key findings underscore strong customer interaction and reputation.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Response rateYou answer virtually every review, which almost nobody in this market does, and the page reads as a business that is present.
  • ✓
    Review countYou hold one of the deepest review banks in this market - social proof that does its own selling.

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    Star ratingYour rating sits below what half the businesses here carry, which gives a customer choosing between three of you a reason to pick one of the others.
  • 2
    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.

The top achievements include borough-specific visibility in the top 10% and solid rankings for key services like waxing, eyebrow bar, and beautician offerings across Hornby-Islington, Hei Hei, and Templeton.

Where customers find you

Simply Beauty Christchurch shows a healthy presence with a health score of 7.6 out of 10. Strong Facebook and Instagram profiles underpin trust, while opportunities exist to expand visibility on TikTok, Yellow Directory and LinkedIn to attract broader client reach and professional branding.

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.

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.

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    People following your pageYours is one of the largest local followings in this market.
  • ✓
    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.

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    What your page says about youYour intro is shorter than half the pages here.
  • 2
    Recommendations on your pageYour count sits above the middle of this market, so a visitor reading the page finds enough written by other people to stop needing anything written by you.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Simply Beauty Christchurch shows above-average on-page SEO health (6.4/10) with a solid foundation from completed items. The site has a valid favicon, a relevant meta description, a clear H1, and an on-target title tag, plus enough text to inform visitors. Focus remains on tightening meta and title lengths and moving away from frames to improve technical health.

Strengths

  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    H1 heading tagYour home page opens with a proper heading, so a visitor landing cold and a search engine reading the page are both told what this business is in the first line.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    On-page scoreSeveral checks on your home page fail at once, and a visitor meets all of them in the first few seconds: a slow open, no clear heading, nothing under your name in search that says what you do.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    Page titleThe headline on your home page is either a single word or long enough that a search result cuts it off part way through.
