Report: https://directindex.org/r/lhs-web.com
Scanned: 2026-10-19 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Liaisons Hair Studio is largely invisible to agents.
AI assistants can't open Liaisons Hair Studio's website, so they go by what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://phorest.com/book/salons/liaisonshairstudio (through phorest acting for the business)

## What to fix first

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2018.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Ottawa, 58% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.

- **The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (TimeoutError: The operation was aborted due to timeout). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **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 that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+1 points) Missing: telephone. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## 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.

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There's no robots.txt, which means everything is allowed.
- **Structured data found (LocalBusiness).** address, opening hours
- **Appointments through phorest on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
- **Phorest works with agents through its partners.** Phorest's consumer booking terms do not mention bots or automated use; its API is issued on request to a business or its partner developers, and Reserve with Google sends clients to the Phorest booking site. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://www.phorest.com/termsandconditions-consumer/. 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.
