Your Google listing

The Google Business Listing for Tholsie & Co. Christchurch shows a very strong health score and solid listing basics. The listing has a verified status, a website link, a visible phone number and an open-for-business indicator, all contributing to easy customer access. The two standout findings are the claimed status and the strong health score, with room to improve listing description and photo count.

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
    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.
  • 2
    Photos on the listingYou carry more photos than most of this market, which gives a customer a real look at the work before they ring.

Where customers find you

Tholsie & Co. Christchurch shows very high overall health (8.8/10), with strong social presence on Facebook and Instagram. The business excels in engagement and branding, and maintains a trusted online profile. Key opportunities lie in expanding to additional platforms such as TikTok, Yellow, LinkedIn, GrabOne, and Yellow Directory to improve discoverability among new audiences.

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

  • ✓
    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 phone numberA phone number shows on your page, so the person who found you on Facebook before they found your website can ring straight from it.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Recommendations on your pageA couple of recommendations have landed on the page, fewer than most here.
  • 2
    People following your pageFewer people follow your page than follow half the pages here.
  • 3
    What your page says about youYour intro runs to a line, shorter than most pages here, so it names the business without settling whether you do the particular job the reader came about or cover the suburb they live in.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Tholsie & Co. Christchurch shows a solid on-page SEO health with a score of 7.4 out of 10. The site has a valid favicon, clear title tag, and an H1 tag, plus a concise content block and an SEO-friendly URL. The top findings point to opportunities in meta description length, title tag balance, and ensuring secure links while maintaining strong overall performance.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Domain HealthYour site answers cleanly over a secure connection, so a customer clicking through from Google lands where they expect with nothing in the way.
  • ✓
    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
    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.
  • 2
    Separate sites linking to youFewer separate websites link to you than half the businesses here, which means when someone searches for what you do, the businesses with a longer list of vouchers are the ones on the page they actually read.
  • 3
    On-page scoreMost checks on your home page pass, so someone clicking through from a search gets a page that opens quickly and says what it is.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Tholsie & Co. Christchurch's opening hours partially align with local demand: several Thursday midday slots and Saturday 1pm match strong demand, while multiple popular weekend afternoons are missed because the shop is closed. No low-demand open hours were identified, so there's no clear wasted time. Addressing a few Sunday and Saturday afternoon closures could capture higher foot traffic and same-day order demand.
