After the top fixes
With the three fixes above (No structured data for the business; No online booking link on the website; No price list of services found), the score would be about 95.4%, which would be first of 256 in Durban hairdressers, beauty salons and massage.
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). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it
- No online booking link on the website +13 points
There's only a phone number or WhatsApp, and agents can't use those yet. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so agents can find it. Add an online appointment page. How to fix it
- 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. How to fix it
- The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data
The site shows 0311710187, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +27838451457. An assistant that sees two numbers can't tell which one to trust. Fix whichever is wrong, on the site or in the map data at openstreetmap.org.
