01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

The Style File's Google listing shows a very low health score, reflecting incomplete elements. Strengths include a complete address, a listed phone number, an open-for-business status and a main image, indicating decent visibility. Key gaps are missing a website link, listing ownership, a descriptive description, a logo, and more photos to improve credibility.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    PhoneYour listing carries a phone number, so the call button is live for anyone who finds you on a phone.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    ClaimedYour listing is not claimed, which means anyone can suggest an edit to it and you have no way to reply to a review or correct what is shown.
  • 2
    WebsiteYour listing has no website link, so a customer who wants to check your prices or your work before ringing has nowhere to go from Google.
  • 3
    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.

Your reviews

The Style File shows an overall health score of 5.0 out of 10 for Google reviews, indicating an average level of performance with room to improve. The strongest finding is a top 10% star rating, reflecting high customer satisfaction. A key area for growth is actively replying to reviews to build trust with 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 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

Where customers find you

The Style File shows a healthy online presence with an overall health score of 6.5 out of 10. The strongest confirmed assets are the Facebook and Instagram profiles, both rated very high for trust. The business should build on these established channels while addressing gaps in other platforms to expand reach and trust.

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.
  • ✓
    ServiceFinder ProfileWe can see your ServiceFinder Profile listing (https://servicefinder.co.nz/Amberley-Tyre-and-Auto-3980) found via: Google search results.

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.
  • 3
    Neighbourly ProfileWe could not find an active Neighbourly 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.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    A cover photoYour page opens with a cover photo rather than a blank banner, so the first impression a visitor gets is your own work.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    People following your pageFewer people follow your page than most in this market, which means a post reaches people who already know you rather than anyone still deciding.
  • 2
    A phone numberNo phone number is published on your Facebook page, so someone who found you there and wants to ring has to go hunting elsewhere or send a message and wait.
  • 3
    An email addressA customer who would rather put a request in writing at ten at night has only Messenger to work with, because the page carries no email address.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

The Style File shows a very low on-page SEO health score (0.9/10) for the homepage, indicating major gaps in structure and metadata that affect visibility. The two key findings are missing or undetected title tag and meta description, which limit click-through potential, plus the absence of a valid favicon that weakens brand presence.

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
    Separate sites linking to youNo separate website links to yours.
  • 3
    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.

How people find you on Google

The Style File shows very low website traffic health. Overall, traffic metrics indicate minimal organic and paid activity for a target audience in Christchurch. The strongest near-term opportunities are to start building organic visibility and basic paid activity to attract local clients, with emphasis on content and targeted landing pages.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

The Style File's opening hours largely match local demand, with most high-traffic weekday windows covered but a cluster of missed Sunday mornings. Strong alignment occurs midweek and late-morning peaks, while remaining closed during high-demand Sunday hours suggests lost enquiries. A couple of early-evening openings fall in low-demand periods and could be reduced or staff pooled to keep costs manageable.
