## What to fix first
- **Appointments only through fresha.** (+12 points) Every agent transaction goes through the marketplace and its commission. Add a direct path on your own site, even a simple form. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.

```html
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "HairSalon",
  "name": "Love and Dye",
  "url": "https://www.loveanddye.com/",
  "telephone": "+44 20 8944 5889",
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 51.4108699,
    "longitude": -0.2279603
  }
}
</script>
```

## 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, phone
- **Fresha works with agents through its partners.** Fresha's terms of use (August 2026) bar automated programs, bots and scraping; sanctioned assistant integrations exist (ChatGPT and Claude through Fresha's MCP server, Gemini, Alexa), and clients complete the booking on Fresha. Read 2026-10-15: https://terms.fresha.com/terms-use. An assistant that is not a partner may not finish the step there; a direct path on your own domain works for all of them.

## Since the scan of 2026-10-14 (C then)
- Fixed: No booking or ordering path at all
