Report: https://directindex.org/r/painperdugent.com
Scanned: 2026-10-16 (Provisional, with the action test still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Pain Perdu is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open Pain Perdu's website. It can read what Pain Perdu offers. It can't find a link to book or order online.

## Direct links

- Hours, from OpenStreetMap · Overture Maps: Mon–Fri 08:00–17:00; Sat 09:00–18:00; Sun 09:00–15:00

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Pain Perdu that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.

- Umamido Vooruit (40 m): https://directindex.org/r/umamido.be

- Babú (80 m): https://directindex.org/r/babu.be
- Sakas (110 m): https://directindex.org/r/sakaswintercircusbe.eu

## What to fix first
- **No booking or ordering link on the website.** (+15 points) There's no link on the site for an agent to follow. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so agents can find it. Add a booking or ordering page on your own domain. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 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

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **No English version declared.** Visitors from abroad, and assistants answering in English, read the page as it is. In Ghent, 21% of comparable sites declare one.
- **94 prices on the landing page, the middle one €9.90.** In Ghent, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is €13.95.

## Fix kit: What to paste
