Your Google listing

St Heliers Dental Group has a below average Google Business Listing health score of 4.2 out of 10. The listing includes essential details such as the business name, website link, phone number and claimed status, helping customers find and contact the practice. The most important gaps are the missing description and logo, which reduce the listing's completeness and visibility in local results.

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 lengthThere is no real description on your listing, so when someone finds you on Google there is nothing in your own words telling them what you do.
  • 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
    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.

Your reviews

St Heliers Dental Group has an Average Google Business review health score of 4.6 out of 10. Its strong star rating is a clear asset, placing it among the highest in the local market. The main gaps are limited owner responses and a review count below the market midpoint, which reduce the depth of reassurance available to prospective customers.

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 rateYou have replied to a small share of your reviews, so most customers reading your page still see feedback about you with no voice from you anywhere on it.
  • 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

St Heliers Dental Group has below average citations and social presence health, scoring 3.7 out of 10. The main issue is that no active Facebook, Instagram or TikTok profiles were found, limiting ways for customers to check information or contact the practice. A Healthpoint listing is present, providing one established third-party directory presence.

Strengths

  • ✓

Your Facebook page

St Heliers Dental Group has no Facebook page that can be found. That leaves customers without a place to confirm the practice is real, check recent work, or send a message before choosing a dentist. In this market, 150 of 277 businesses have a findable page, so having none visible is unusual and creates an avoidable gap.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

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.
  • ✓
    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 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
    Meta descriptionYour pages carry no summary line of your own, so the two lines under your name in search results are whatever Google decides best fits the search.
  • 3
    Separate sites linking to youOnly a handful of separate websites link to yours, well behind most of this market.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

The business covers 73% of the week's customer traffic, and its closures are mostly well placed, with Saturday remaining the main gap. On Saturday 9am to 3pm, customers meet a closed practice during the market's busiest period. Extend Saturday opening through 9am to 1pm so customers can arrive and be served during the busiest hours.
