things to fix
Action test, 2026-10-14: partial, a path exists but an agent would struggle. There is a button or a form, but no complete booking or ordering flow an agent can finish on this page.
Provisional: the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.
What to fix first
- Structured data is incomplete +7 points
Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. 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 with services and prices as text and link it from the homepage. How to fix it
No one is listed yet to fix this in Vancouver hairdressers and beauty salons. List your agency or yourself: free, reviewed by hand.
Already right
- robots.txt lets AI crawlers in No rule blocks the key AI user agents.
- AI crawlers get the page GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all received a normal response.
- Structured data present (Organization) but without address, phone or hours
- Appointments on your own site Agents can book an appointment without a marketplace in the loop.
