Scanned: 2026-10-18 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Rod and Jim’s Barbershop is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open Rod and Jim’s Barbershop's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Acuity Scheduling.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://rodandjimsbarbershop.as.me/ (through acuity acting for the business)
- Phone: +61423693877

## What to fix first

- **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 that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong.

## 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 (Organization).** no address, phone or hours in it
- **Appointments through acuity on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
