01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Vision Insurance (SI) shows a below-average Google Business health at 3.6/10, with room to improve listing completeness and brand presence. Strengths include a claimed listing, visible business title, phone number and a live website link, plus an open-for-business status. Key opportunity exists to add a logo and expand photos, while the description can be refined.

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 lengthYour description is far shorter than what most businesses here have written, which means a customer comparing listings gets a line from you and three paragraphs from the business beside you.
  • 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 fewer photos than nearly every business here, so a customer comparing you against them builds a picture of their work and guesses at yours.

Your reviews

Vision Insurance (SI) shows a solid overall health on Google reviews with a 7.9/10 score. The business benefits from a top 10% star rating and a solid review base, while response rate remains above a quarter of peers. The balance between rating quality and review volume also supports confidence in the ratings.

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 reply to some of your reviews but not most, so a customer scrolling your page finds long stretches where nobody answered.
  • 2
    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.
  • 3
    Review countYour review count sits above the middle of this market, which puts you in the group customers read as established rather than untested.

Top two opportunities

  • 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.
  • 2
    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across more of the surrounding suburbs than nearly everyone here, so a customer searching well outside your own patch still sees you.

Where customers find you

Vision Insurance (SI) shows above-average social presence health (5.8/10) with strong Facebook and LinkedIn activity, indicating solid reach and credibility. The most important finding is the strength of the Facebook profile and a well-maintained LinkedIn listing, while several key platforms are missing, limiting reach to local customers.

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.
  • ✓
    LinkedIn CompanyWe can see your LinkedIn Company listing (https://linkedin.com/company/vision-insurance-nz) found via: Google search results, Your website.
  • ✓
    White Pages ListingWe can see your White Pages Listing listing (https://whitepages.co.nz/vision-insurance-si-upper) 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.

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

  • 2
    People following your pageFewer people follow your page than follow half the pages here.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Vision Insurance (SI) shows average on-page SEO health with a 4.4/10. The most important findings are strong favicon presence and an SEO-friendly URL, plus a fast page load under 3 seconds. However, title tag and meta description health are inconsistent, and render-blocking resources plus frames usage need attention to improve indexing and load times.

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.
  • ✓
    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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Separate sites linking to youNo separate website links to yours.
  • 2
    The shape of your link profileNo links to your site were found, so there is no shape to read yet.
  • 3
    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.

How people find you on Google

Vision Insurance (SI) shows average website traffic health with a score of 5.3 out of 10, indicating room for improvement. The strongest finding is in organic visibility, where the site has moved above the 25th percentile and can further climb with backlinks and targeted content. Paid traffic remains minimal and needs a defined approach to start driving measurable visits.

Strengths

Your first one is close. Sort an opportunity below and it moves up here.

Top three opportunities

    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.

    Search terms you rank forYour site appears for fewer search terms than most businesses here, so there are only a handful of ways for someone to come across you.

Your hours against demand

Vision Insurance (SI) shows an overall reasonable fit between published hours and local demand, but city-level popularity data is not available and no explicit strong-alignment or missed-opportunity hours were provided. Where open hours match peak search windows this is positive; where closed during popular times these are missed opportunities. Consider modest hour tweaks and appointment options to capture unmet demand while avoiding staff cost blowouts.
