Assistants

What assistants answer

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.

Findings

What to fix first

  1. No booking or ordering link on the website +15 points

    Agents find no link to follow on the site. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so an agent can find it. Add a booking or ordering page on your own domain. How to fix it

  2. Structured data is incomplete +5 points

    Missing: telephone, opening hours. How to fix it

  3. Menu or price list lives on another site +5 points

    The link points to google.com, so the credit and the traffic go there. How to fix it

  4. The server turns AI crawlers away at the door +3.3 points

    Live fetches as PerplexityBot (cloudflare_challenge) 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. How to fix it

  5. 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

  6. 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
