01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Trollope & Co Lawyers shows a low Google Business health with essential contact details present. The listing has a usable website link, a visible title, an open-for-business status, a phone number, and a full address, but gaps remain in claiming status, description, photos and logo.

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.
  • ✓
    WebsiteYour listing links to your website, so a customer can move from Google to your own pages in one tap and read your account of the work before they ring.

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
    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.
  • 3
    Photos on the listingYou have no photos on your listing, or close to none, so a customer scrolling past sees a blank where every other business shows their work.

Your reviews

Trollope & Co Lawyers shows above-average health on Google reviews with a 6.8/10. The top achievement is a stellar star rating in the top 10%, indicating high customer satisfaction. A key opportunity is improving engagement by responding to reviews, which currently has zero responses. Another opportunity is sustaining steady review growth and maintaining confidence to move into the upper local quartiles.

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 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.
  • 3
    Review countYour review count sits under the middle of this market, so you are readable to a customer without yet being convincing.

Where you show up on the map

Trollope & Co Lawyers shows a below-average health score of 4.2 out of 10 for Google Maps search visibility. The business has some broad presence but local, borough-level visibility remains limited. The strongest notes are top-5 rankings for several real estate related keywords in the Christchurch area, indicating solid relevance in property and conveyancer queries.

Strengths

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across fewer of the surrounding suburbs than half the businesses here, so someone two suburbs over searching for your service is shown your competitors and never sees your name.
  • 2
    Maps visibility in your own suburbYou show up in local Maps searches, but below most businesses in your suburb, so a customer looking from a nearby street is shown someone else first.

Where customers find you

Trollope & Co Lawyers shows an above-average social presence with a 6.2 health score and strong Facebook activity, plus an updated LinkedIn Company listing. Key findings: social trust is highest on Facebook, while Instagram, TikTok, and Neighbourly profiles are missing or inactive, limiting local reach.

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.
  • ✓
    White Pages ListingWe can see your White Pages Listing listing (https://whitepages.co.nz/trollope-co-lawyers-christchurch) found via: Google search results.
  • ✓
    Top Lawyers ListingWe can see your Top Lawyers Listing listing (https://toplawyers.co.nz/trollope-co-lawyers-christchurch) 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.
  • ✓
    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 pageNo recommendations sit on your page, so a stranger who came to see whether anyone else has used you leaves with only your own posts to go on.
  • 2
    People following your pageFewer people follow your page than follow half the pages here.
  • 3
    What your page says about youThere is more in your intro than in half the pages here, so a visitor has a real sense of the business before they reach the photos.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Trollope & Co Lawyers shows very high on-page SEO health with a score near the top of local competitors. The most important findings are a perfect meta description within 130-150 characters and a valid favicon, plus an H1 tag and adequate page text. Opportunities include refining the title tag to land in 50-60 characters and reducing render-blocking resources.

Strengths

  • ✓
    On-page scoreFew sites in this market clear these checks as completely as yours: fast to open, readable, and accurate about itself to Google and to the person who lands on it.
  • ✓
    Meta descriptionYour search summary sits in the length that reads in full on most screens, which is as far as length alone can take it - a narrow phone still cuts the tail off a line this size.
  • ✓
    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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Domain HealthYour site answers, but something did not check out - an insecure link, a redirect chain, a domain shared with other businesses, or a listing pointing at a social page.
  • 2
    Separate sites linking to youMore separate websites link to you than half the businesses here, so a reasonable spread of places vouch for you.
  • 3
    Pages linking to youFewer pages link to you than half the businesses here, which means a customer researching your trade reads someone else's explanation of it rather than yours.

How people find you on Google

Trollope & Co Lawyers' website shows a health score of 4.9/10, indicating average health. The key finding is that paid traffic is not yet established, while organic value sits mid-range and organic traffic is around the 25th-50th percentile locally. Focused, small paid campaigns and ongoing content improvements should help move traffic and visibility.

Strengths

    What you spend on adsWe can see no paid search activity for your site, which in most local markets is the norm rather than a gap.

    Monthly ad visitsYour site receives no visitors from paid search, which for most local businesses in this market is the norm rather than a problem.
  • 3
    What that traffic is worthThe search visitors reaching your site are worth less than half the businesses here, so the people arriving are browsing rather than buying.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Trollope & Co Lawyers shows clear alignment with weekday midday demand, open during several high-search windows across Tuesday to Thursday lunchtime and mid-morning. However, the firm is closed during several popular weekend and early‑morning slots, including Saturday morning and Sunday early afternoon, which are missed opportunities. There are no open hours during low-demand windows, so operating hours are efficient but could be tweaked to capture extra weekend demand.

    Hours aligned with demandYour hours cover more of the busy stretches than the middle of the field, so you are open for most of the searching that happens near you.
