things to fix

Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.

Findings

What to fix first

  1. Ordering through an unrecognised third party +9 points

    Check that the provider keeps you as the merchant of record. How to fix it

  2. No menu or price list found +7 points

    Agents answer 'what do they offer' from marketplaces instead. Add a menu or price list page and link it from the homepage. How to fix it

  3. Almost no text without JavaScript +2 points

    Crawlers that do not run scripts see an empty page. Render the menu, hours and address as plain HTML. How to fix it

  4. Structured data is incomplete +2 points

    Missing: telephone. How to fix it

  5. No llms.txt no points, still worth doing

    Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. How to fix it

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.
