## What to fix first
- **Booking only through thefork.** (+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
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+3.3 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_429) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data.** The site shows (+34)%20605%20181%20199, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +34605181199. An assistant that sees two numbers can't tell which one to trust. Fix whichever is wrong, on the site or in the map data at openstreetmap.org.

## 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": "Organization",
  "name": "La Marca Asador Argentino",
  "url": "http://lamarcamalaga.com/",
  "telephone": "+34605181199",
  "address": "Calle Salitre, 4, 29002, Málaga",
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 36.71458431,
    "longitude": -4.42656142
  }
}
</script>
```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **Structured data found (Organization).** no address, phone or hours in it
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
- **TheFork works with agents through its partners.** TheFork's terms page could not be fetched on 2026-10-15; TheFork integrated OpenAI's Operator agent for UK bookings in February 2025 and is a named Google AI Mode booking partner. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://itbrief.co.uk/story/thefork-integrates-openai-s-operator-for-uk-bookings. 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.
