The climb
With the two fixes above (The site turns every visitor without a browser away, AI agents included; Menu or price list lives on another site) the score would be about 95.4%: 20th of 566 in San Jose, up from 357th.
Peers are the businesses of the same index with a reachable site, latest scan of each; the rank uses the index's current ranking.
What to fix first
- The site turns every visitor without a browser away, AI agents included +25 points
A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge); only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent is turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the rendered page. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. How to fix it
- Menu or price list lives on another site +5 points
The link points to meritvegan.com, so the credit and the traffic go there. How to fix it

- Booking on your own site Agents can book without a marketplace in the loop.
- Ordering through square on your own domain No marketplace commission, and the guest stays yours.
Builder: wix · Front: cloudflare · A plain fetch got cloudflare_challenge; a real browser got the page, so the scan continues on the rendered page.
