Scanned: 2026-10-21 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Glam Knights is hard for agents to use.
An AI assistant can open Glam Knights's website. What Glam Knights offers is on another site. To book or order, it is sent to Fresha, a marketplace.

## Direct links
- Phone: +441204567822
- Address: Glam Knights, 16 Bury New Rd, BL2 6QB, Bolton

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Glam Knights that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- Blossom Beauty (2.1 km): https://directindex.org/r/blossombeautymcr.com
- Indulge Salon (2.4 km): https://directindex.org/r/beautyandtanningcentre.com

## 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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Appointments only through fresha.** (+12 points) Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission. Add a direct way on your own site. Even a simple form will do. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Price list of services is on another site.** (+5 points) The link goes to fresha.com, so that site gets the credit and the visits. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **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

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2023.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Manchester, 65% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.

## 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.

- This file follows llms.txt (https://llmstxt.org): a short plain-text description for language models.
```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all got a normal response.
- **Fresha works with agents through its partners.** Fresha's terms of use (August 2026) bar automated programs, bots and scraping; sanctioned assistant integrations exist (ChatGPT and Claude through Fresha's MCP server, Gemini, Alexa), and clients complete the booking on Fresha. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://terms.fresha.com/terms-use. An assistant that isn't a partner may not be able to finish there. A direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
