things to fix
Action test, 2026-10-14: completed, an agent can reach the step before confirming. A Square booking or ordering page renders and can be used without a login.
Provisional: the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.
What to fix first
- No working HTTPS
The page is only served over plain http. Agents and browsers downrank or refuse it.
- Almost no text without JavaScript
Crawlers that do not run scripts see an empty page. Render the menu, hours and address as plain HTML. How to fix it
- Structured data is incomplete
Missing: telephone. How to fix it
- No llms.txt
Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. How to fix it
No one is listed yet to fix this in Manchester cafes and bars. 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 (LocalBusiness) address, opening hours
- Menu or price list is an HTML page Agents can read items and prices directly.
- Ordering through square on your own domain No marketplace commission, and the guest stays yours.

What assistants answer
Each assistant is asked three questions about this business: the official website, where to book, where to order. The cell says where the answer sent people.
Not asked yet. Assistants are asked about the top-ranked businesses in each city index, and about every claimed business the moment it is claimed; claim this page to be included.
