# Becca: Agent-Direct Score F (37.4%) Site: https://beccahairandbeauty.co.uk Report: https://directindex.org/r/beccahairandbeauty.co.uk Scanned: 2026-10-14 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.) Becca is largely invisible to agents. Some AI assistants are turned away by the website of Becca. What Becca offers is on another site. To book or order, it is sent to Fresha, a marketplace. ## Direct links - Phone: +44 20 8050 3868 ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+14 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (HairSalon, BeautySalon 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 - **Appointments only through fresha.** (+12 points) Every agent transaction goes through the marketplace and its commission. Add a direct path on your own site, even a simple form. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Live fetches as GPTBot (challenge:access denied), ClaudeBot (challenge:access denied) were refused while a normal browser got the page. This is usually a hosting or firewall bot list the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **Price list of services lives on another site.** (+5 points) The link points to fresha.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 Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Becca > hair salon in London hairdressers and beauty salons.
