After the top fixes
With the three fixes above (No structured data for the business; The server turns AI crawlers away at the door; robots.txt blocks ChatGPT-User, Claude-User, Perplexity-User), the score would be about 95.4%. That would be 2nd of 302 in Ghent cafes and bars, up from 255th.
What to fix first
- No structured data for the business +14 points
Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (CafeOrCoffeeShop, BarOrPub or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it
- The server turns AI crawlers away at the door +10 points
Requests as GPTBot (challenge:attention required), ClaudeBot (http_429), PerplexityBot (http_429) 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. How to fix it
- robots.txt blocks ChatGPT-User, Claude-User, Perplexity-User +3.7 points
These are the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI features. Remove the Disallow lines for them, or add explicit Allow rules. How to fix 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. How to fix it
