How the score is built
Three areas, weighted by how much each one affects whether a golfer finds a course and books it. Everything we measure is public, so the score reflects what a golfer searching for a course would see.
Reputation
Your Google rating, how many reviews you have, how recent they are, and whether anyone at the course replies. It carries the most weight because it is the first thing a golfer looks at.
Visibility
Where you come up in the map results and the regular results when golfers in your area search, and how complete your Google profile and website are.
Direct booking
Whether your tee times are being resold or discounted by a third party, and whether a golfer who finds you can book with you directly in a couple of taps.
What the bands mean
Each band is a different ending to the same story: a golfer searching for a course like yours on a Thursday night. Below 60, most of those golfers end up booking somewhere else.
Dormie
They book with you, hear from you, and come back.
Competitive
They usually book with you. A few gaps still send them elsewhere.
Leaking
They find you, then book through a marketplace.
Off the map
The golfer searching nearby never finds you.
The score is where you start.
You get the score and a breakdown of each area in about twenty seconds. When Greenbook takes on a course, we score it again every month so you can see the change.
