After the top fixes

Peers are the businesses in the same index that have a reachable site, using the latest scan of each. The rank comes from the index's current ranking.

Findings

What to fix first

  1. The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included +25 points

    A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. How to fix it

  2. Structured data is incomplete +3 points

    Missing: opening hours. How to fix it

Send the fixes to your web person

One email with the fixes and the link. Nothing is stored.

No one is listed yet to fix this in New York. List your agency or yourself. It's free, and every listing is reviewed by hand.

Already right

  • robots.txt lets AI crawlers in No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
  • Structured data found (Restaurant) address, phone
  • Menu or price list is an HTML page Agents can read the items and prices.
  • Ordering on your own site Agents can order without going through a marketplace.

Builder: unknown · A plain fetch got cloudflare_challenge; a real browser got the page, so the scan continues on the rendered page.
