After the top fixes

With the three fixes above (No list of services and prices found; Structured data is incomplete; The server turns AI crawlers away at the door), the score would be about 95.4%, which would be first of 276 in Christchurch dentists, clinics and vets.

Findings

What to fix first

  1. No list of services and prices found +7 points

    Agents answer 'what do they treat and what does it cost?' from directories instead. Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. How to fix it

  2. Structured data is incomplete +6 points

    Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. How to fix it

  3. The server turns AI crawlers away at the door +3.3 points

    Requests as ClaudeBot (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

  4. 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
