- No structured data for the business +15 points

- No online booking link on the website +15 points
There's no link on the site for an agent to follow. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so agents can find it. Add an online appointment page on your own domain. How to fix it
- No price list of services found +7 points

- No working HTTPS +3 points
The page is only served over plain http. Browsers and agents rank it lower or refuse it.
- Almost no text without JavaScript +2 points
Crawlers that don't run scripts see an empty page. Put the menu, hours and address in plain HTML. How to fix it
- No llms.txt no points, but worth doing
