Site: http://www.martindawes.com
Report: https://directindex.org/r/martindawesrentals.com
Scanned: 2026-10-21 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Martin Dawes is mostly ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open Martin Dawes's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.

## Direct links
- Order directly: https://martindawesrentals.com/payment-delivery/ (on the business's own site)
- Phone: +441618323322

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Martin Dawes that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- Sakura (290 m): https://directindex.org/r/sakura-japanese-restaurant.co.uk
- Lahori Kebabish (510 m): https://directindex.org/r/apnalahorikebabish.co.uk
- Steakout 212 (520 m): https://directindex.org/r/steakoutuk.com
- Lahori Butt Karahi (550 m): https://directindex.org/r/lahoributtkarahi.co.uk

## What to fix first
- **No menu or price list found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with the menu or price list and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business
- **The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data.** The site shows 01925938999, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +441618323322. 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.

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2024.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Manchester, 75% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.
- **7 prices on the landing page, the middle one £6.50.** In Manchester, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is £9.00.

## 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.
