Report: https://directindex.org/r/lacharcu.com
Scanned: 2026-10-16 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
La Charcu is hard for agents to use.
An AI assistant can open La Charcu's website. It can read what La Charcu offers. It finds a phone number, but no link to book or order online.

## Direct links
- Menu: https://www.lacharcu.com/nuestra-carta
- Step-free access (OpenStreetMap)
- WhatsApp: a link on the site

## Nearby, also direct

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No booking or ordering 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 a booking or ordering page. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **No English version declared.** Visitors from abroad, and assistants answering in English, read the page as it is. In Bilbao, 25% of comparable sites declare one.

## 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": "Restaurant",
  "name": "La Charcu",
  "url": "https://www.lacharcu.com/",
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 43.2631952,
    "longitude": -2.9401988
  },
  "hasMenu": "https://www.lacharcu.com/nuestra-carta"
}
</script>
```

## 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.
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
