Site: http://essenceofhealthvermont.com.au/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/essenceofhealthvermont.com.au
Scanned: 2026-10-18 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Essence of Health Vermont is largely invisible to agents.
AI assistants can't open Essence of Health Vermont's website, so they go by what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://essence-of-health.cliniko.com/bookings (through cliniko acting for the business)
- Phone: +61398732223

## What to fix first
- Prices: 6 prices on the site, the middle one A$95.00

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **6 prices on the landing page, the middle one A$95.00.** In Melbourne, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is A$78.47.

- **The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (TimeoutError: The operation was aborted due to timeout). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost?' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+4 points) Missing: telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## 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.

## Already right

- **Structured data found (LocalBusiness).** address
- **Appointments through cliniko on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
