01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Astonish Hair and Beauty shows a solid presence on Google, with strong basics like claimed status, an open-for-business indicator, a website link, a listing title and a phone number. The overall health sits at 4.9 out of 10, indicating room for improvement. The two key takes are the need for a proper description and a logo to boost visibility and trust.

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 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.
  • 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.

Your reviews

Astonish Hair and Beauty shows a healthy Google review profile with a strong listing and high local social proof, but engagement is lagging in responding to reviews. Overall health is 4.4/10, indicating room for improvement in customer engagement while maintaining solid review volume.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Review countYou hold one of the deepest review banks in this market - social proof that does its own selling.
  • ✓
    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.

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 sits below what half the businesses here carry, which gives a customer choosing between three of you a reason to pick one of the others.

Where you show up on the map

The strongest finding is top rankings for multiple hair and beauty keywords in the Harewood-Christchurch airport area, reflecting strong local relevance. The borough score is notably solid, placing within the top quarter of results.

Strengths

Close to the top. Every check here is on track or better. Take one to the top and it moves up here.

Room to climb

  • 1
    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across more of the surrounding suburbs than the middle of the field, so customers searching from outside your own patch are finding you.
  • 2
    Maps visibility in your own suburbYou show up in local Maps searches more often than nearly every business in your suburb, so a customer searching nearby sees you before most of your competition.

Where customers find you

Astonish Hair and Beauty shows a healthy overall presence with an 8.4/10 health score, indicating solid visibility across local directories and social platforms. The strongest current assets are well-established Instagram and Facebook profiles and a complete Fresha listing, plus Yellow Directory presence. The main opportunities focus on adding TikTok, NoSecretSalon, and LinkedIn profiles to broaden reach and credibility.

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.
  • ✓
    Fresha ProfileWe can see your Fresha Profile listing (https://fresha.com/astonish-hair-and-beauty-memorial-avenue-christchurch-VENZ81) 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.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

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.
  • ✓
    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.
  • ✓
    Page file sizeYour home page is light enough to open quickly on a phone with a weak signal, which is where most people meet a local business for the first time.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    On-page scoreThe basics on your home page are half in place: it opens and it reads, but enough checks still fail that a customer on a phone away from wifi notices the wait before they notice the business.
  • 3
    Page titleYour home page headline does not fit the space a search result gives it, so a searcher sees either a half-empty line or one that trails off before your name arrives.

Strengths

    What that traffic is worthThe search visitors reaching your site are worth more than half the businesses here, so a real share of your enquiries cost nothing to acquire.
  • ✓
    Monthly search visitsYour site draws more visitors from search than half the businesses here, so a steady share of enquiries arrive without you paying.

Top three opportunities

    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.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Astonish Hair and Beauty's opening hours largely align with local demand, with all strong peak windows covered and no low-demand hours open. Peak Saturday and Tuesday mid-day traffic is well matched to current hours, but several Sunday afternoon demand peaks are missed because the salon is closed. Consider limited Sunday openings or appointment-only slots to capture missed airport and weekend customers.

Strengths

Close to the top. Every check here is on track or better. Take one to the top and it moves up here.
