Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **Booking only through opentable.** (+9 points) Every agent transaction goes through the marketplace and its commission.

Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/online-ordering-without-delivery-apps - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+3.3 points) Live fetches as GPTBot (http_429) were refused while a normal browser got the page.
