# Bodega: Agent-Direct Score D (54.9%)

Site: https://www.bodega.gent/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/bodega.gent
Scanned: 2026-10-16 (Provisional, with the action test still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Bodega is hard for agents to use.
An AI assistant can open Bodega's website. It can read what Bodega offers. It can't find a link to book or order online.

## Direct links
- Menu: https://www.bodega.gent/portfolio

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Bodega that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.

- Lekker GEC (80 m): https://directindex.org/r/lekkergec.com

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No booking or ordering link on the website.** (+15 points) There's no link on the site for an agent to follow. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so agents can find it. Add a booking or ordering page on your own domain. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Almost no text without JavaScript.** (+2 points) Crawlers that don't run scripts see an empty page. Put the menu, hours and address in plain HTML. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/website-blank-without-javascript
- **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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **No English version declared.** Visitors from abroad, and assistants answering in English, read the page as it is. In Ghent, 21% of comparable sites declare one.

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong.

```html
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Restaurant",
  "name": "Bodega",
  "url": "https://www.bodega.gent/",
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 51.0368663,
    "longitude": 3.7132141
  },
  "servesCuisine": [
    "tapas"
  ],
  "hasMenu": "https://www.bodega.gent/portfolio"
}
</script>
```

llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site.

```
# Bodega

> restaurant (tapas) in Ghent.

## Book or order directly

- Menu: https://www.bodega.gent/portfolio

## About

- Website: https://www.bodega.gent/
- This file follows llms.txt (https://llmstxt.org): a short plain-text description for language models.
```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all got a normal response.
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
