Your Google listing

Taxfix Accountants shows a healthy overall Google Business Listing presence with a 6.9/10 health score. Key strengths include a claimed listing with a functional website link and visible phone number, plus an Open-for-Business status. The main area for growth is adding a logo to reinforce brand identity, while photo updates continue to improve local reach.

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
    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.
  • 3
    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.

Your reviews

Taxfix Accountants shows a very high health score on Google reviews, indicating strong customer satisfaction and a solid reputation. The most notable findings are outstanding overall review volume and rating, with top 10% positioning in both rating confidence and total reviews.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Review confidenceRating and volume together put you at the head of this market: well rated, with enough reviews behind it that a customer takes the number seriously.
  • ✓
    Review countYou hold one of the deepest review banks in this market - social proof that does its own selling.

Top two 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
    Star ratingYour rating is higher than most of this market, and it is the first thing a customer reads about you.

Where you show up on the map

Taxfix Accountants shows a solid overall health score for Google Maps search, indicating strong local visibility. The top opportunity is maintaining strong aggregate visibility, which is already at or above the local median. Another key area is suburb performance, where the firm sits at or above the borough median and should keep momentum to reach top performers.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Maps visibility across the city groupThere is no wider Maps reach available to a business at your address - you appear across more of the surrounding suburbs than anyone in this market.

Top opportunity

  • 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.

Where customers find you

Taxfix Accountants shows an average health for Citations & Social Presence, with notable achievements in Facebook and Neighbourly. The Facebook profile has a very high trust score, indicating a strong, authoritative presence, while Neighbourly presence supports reach with an accurate profile. Key opportunities focus on establishing active Instagram, TikTok, and directory listings to improve visibility.

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.
  • ✓
    Cylex ListingWe can see your Cylex Listing listing (https://cylex.co.nz/taxfix+accountants+limited-18186672) found via: Google search results.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Instagram ProfileWe could not find an active Instagram Profile profile for your business, so a customer who looks for you there finds 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.

05Facebook pageMarketbase business report

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    Recommendations on your pageYour recommendation count is one of the deeper collections in this market, and enough of it is written by other people that the page does some of the arguing for you.
  • ✓
    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
    People following your pageYour following sits ahead of half the pages here, so an ordinary post reaches a real local audience without you paying for it.
  • 2
    What your page says about youYour intro carries more detail than most pages in this market and is doing the work of a short landing page for the visitors who never reach your website.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Taxfix Accountants shows an above-average on-page health score of 5.9/10 for the homepage, indicating solid technical foundations with room to finish top-tier optimisations. Key strengths include a valid favicon, presence of an H1 tag, fast page load under 3 seconds, and concise content. The main opportunities focus on meta description, title tag balance, avoiding frames, and improving text-to-page size balance.

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
    Separate sites linking to youNo separate website links to yours.
  • 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
    The shape of your link profileNo links to your site were found, so there is no shape to read yet.

How people find you on Google
