Site: https://www.petaloudasalon.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/petaloudasalon.com
Scanned: 2026-10-14 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Petaloúda is partly visible to agents.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.vagaro.com/petaloudasalon/book-now (through vagaro acting for the business)
- Phone: +1-617-487-3282

## What to fix first
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page with services and prices as text and link it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## Fix kit: What to paste

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the key AI user agents.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all received a normal response.
- **Structured data present (LocalBusiness).** but without address, phone or hours
- **Appointments through vagaro on your own domain.** No marketplace commission, and the guest stays yours.
- **Vagaro works with agents through its partners.** Vagaro's user agreement (September 2025), section 3, bars robots, data mining and any software that interacts with the services without prior written consent; Google names Vagaro as an AI Mode agentic booking partner. Read 2026-10-15: https://www.vagaro.com/pro/user-agreement. An assistant that is not a partner may not finish the step there; a direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
