Report: https://directindex.org/r/finlayandsons.com
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.)
Finlay & Sons is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open Finlay & Sons's website. It can read what Finlay & Sons offers. It can't find a link to book or order online.

## Direct links
- Menu: https://www.finlayandsons.com/menu

## What to fix first

- **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
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+2 points) Missing: telephone. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **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

## 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": "CafeOrCoffeeShop",
  "name": "Finlay & Sons",
  "url": "http://www.finlayandsons.com/",
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": -31.9202198,
    "longitude": 115.8870538
  },
  "hasMenu": "https://www.finlayandsons.com/menu"
}
</script>
```

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