Basilica di San Giovanni in Laterano is partly visible to agents.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.basilicasangiovanni.va/it/una-basilica-viva/prenotazione-messe.html (on the business's own site)

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (TouristAttraction, Museum, TravelAgency or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Tickets and prices lives on another site.** (+5 points) The link points to youtube.com, so the credit and the traffic go there. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## Fix kit: What to paste
