# Palace Massage: Agent-Direct Score F (27.7%) Site: http://9palacemassage.com/ Report: https://directindex.org/r/9palacemassage.com Scanned: 2026-10-24 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Palace Massage is largely invisible to agents. Some AI assistants are turned away by Palace Massage's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through palacemassage.org. ## Direct links - Phone: +18587985620 - Address: 12125 Alta Carmel Ct #380, 92128, San Diego ## Nearby, also direct Places near Palace Massage that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Natura Sugaring Melt & Wax Spa - Carmel Mountain (20 m): https://directindex.org/r/naturaspa.com - Light Therapy San Diego (660 m): https://directindex.org/r/lighttherapysandiego.com - All Things Confident (1.2 km): https://directindex.org/r/allthingsconfident.co - Bespoke Atelier Salon (1.2 km): https://directindex.org/r/bespokeateliersalon.com - Taylortstyles Studio (1.2 km): https://directindex.org/r/taylortstyles.com ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (HairSalon, BeautySalon or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+10 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_403), ClaudeBot (http_403), PerplexityBot (http_403) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **Appointments through an unrecognised third party.** (+9 points) Check that the provider keeps your business as the seller of record. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website - **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost?' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **No working HTTPS.** (+3 points) The page is only served over plain http. Browsers and agents rank it lower or refuse it. - **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business ## Fix kit: What to paste Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Palace Massage > local business in 12125 Alta Carmel Ct #380, 92128, San Diego, San Diego hairdressers and beauty salons.
