Assistants

What assistants answer

Each assistant is asked three questions about this business: the official website, where to book, where to order. The cell says where the answer sent people.

Not asked yet. Assistants are asked about the top-ranked businesses in each city index, and about every claimed business the moment it is claimed; claim this page to be included.

Fixed something, or think a check is wrong? Rescans are free. Claiming takes one email to confirm; after that the three assistants are asked about the business right away, the site is rescanned weekly, and you get a message only when the score changes.
