## What to fix first
- **GloriaFood's terms ban bots and automated use, but a direct form on your own site has no such limit.** (+5 points) GloriaFood's terms of use (6 February 2024, Oracle) say you agree not to use any robot, spider, scraper or other automated means without written permission; GloriaFood reaches end of life on 30 April 2027. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://www.gloriafood.com/terms-of-use. An agent that books or orders there goes against the vendor's terms unless the vendor allows it. A form or booking page on your own domain has no such limit. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## Fix kit: What to paste

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all got a normal response.
- **Structured data found (LocalBusiness).** address, phone
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
- **Ordering through gloriafood on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
