# Madison's World: Agent-Direct Score F (20%)

Site: https://madisons.world
Report: https://directindex.org/r/madisons.world
Scanned: 2026-10-17 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Madison's World is largely invisible to agents.
AI assistants can't open Madison's World's website, so they go by what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Phone: +61 483 849 660

## What to fix first
- Prices: 16 prices on the site, the middle one A$67.00

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **16 prices on the landing page, the middle one A$67.00.** In Melbourne, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is A$78.47.

- **The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge). 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
- **Appointments only through fresha.** (+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.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Price list of services is on another site.** (+5 points) The link goes to fresha.com, so that site gets the credit and the visits. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai

## 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": "HairSalon",
  "name": "Madison's World",
  "url": "https://madisons.world",
  "telephone": "+61 483 849 660",
  "address": {
    "@type": "PostalAddress",
    "streetAddress": "Queensberry Street 506"
  },
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": -37.802994,
    "longitude": 144.9505117
  }
}
</script>
```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There's no robots.txt, which means everything is allowed.
- **Structured data found (Organization).** no address, phone or hours in it
- **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. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://terms.fresha.com/terms-use. 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.
