After the top fixes
With the three fixes above (The server turns AI crawlers away at the door; Structured data is incomplete; No menu or price list found), the score would be about 95.4%. That would be 2nd of 292 in Baltimore cafes and bars, up from 118th.
What to fix first
- The server turns AI crawlers away at the door +10 points
Requests as GPTBot (http_403), ClaudeBot (http_403), PerplexityBot (http_403) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. How to fix it
- Structured data is incomplete +7 points
Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. How to fix it
- 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. How to fix it
- 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. How to fix it
