Where Most Profiles Fall Short

Many Sunshine Coast landscape architects miss opportunities by not showcasing enough work. Three of fourteen businesses list fewer than ten photos on their Google profiles; this limits potential clients from visualising past projects. Customer feedback also needs attention. Five businesses have fewer than ten reviews in total. More client experiences build trust and improve search ranking, which is key for local visibility.

Areas of Improvement Required

Some reviewers pointed to these areas -- not universal, but common enough to note:

  • Reviewers often felt disrespected during service interactions.
  • Customers received flawed products and unhelpful project guidance.
  • Reviewers did not receive a reply after reaching out.
  • Reviewers reported issues obtaining clear cost estimates or specified products.

The Audit Results: 14 Profiles Checked

We analysed 14 landscape architects in Sunshine Coast. Ratings and reviews are what Google Business Profile shows first, but they're not what decides who wins a suburb-level search -- we checked this cohort against the signals that actually do:

  • Google Photos -- 11 of 14 have 10 or more photos on their Google profile; 2 have fewer than 5.
  • Review replies -- 3 of 6 businesses with a negative review in this sample replied to it publicly.
  • Business hours -- 14 of 14 have opening hours listed on their Google profile.
  • Website -- 14 of 14 list a website. Of the 12 we could load, 6 carry local-business structured data (schema.org markup that helps Google and AI search tools confirm what the business does and where), and 8 run on HTTPS.
  • Q&A on Google -- Q&A data wasn't available for this cohort at generation time.
