# Rosso Salon: Agent-Direct Score F (20%) Site: http://rossosalonandspa.com/ Report: https://directindex.org/r/rossosalonandspa.com Scanned: 2026-11-12 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Rosso Salon is largely invisible to agents. Some AI assistants are turned away by Rosso Salon's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It can't find a link to book or order online. ## Direct links - Phone: +19056623456 - Address: 147 Lake Ave Dr, Hamilton L8E 1L1 ## Nearby, also direct Places near Rosso Salon that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Ebony & Ivory Hair Design (600 m): https://directindex.org/r/ebonyandivoryhair.ca - Foxy Box Laser & Wax Bar - Hamilton (730 m): https://directindex.org/r/foxyboxwaxbar.com - Fresh Cuts N Fades Barbershop (880 m): https://directindex.org/r/freshcutsnfades.com - Cheeky Cherry Sugaring and Beauty Bar (1.1 km): https://directindex.org/r/cheekycherrybeauty.com ## What to fix first - **No online booking 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 an online appointment page on your own domain. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website - **robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, Claude-User, Perplexity-User.** (+10 points) These are the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI features. Remove the Disallow lines for them, or add explicit Allow rules. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/robots-txt-for-ai-agents - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+10 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_403), ClaudeBot (http_403), PerplexityBot (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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **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 that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **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 ## 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. ```html ``` robots.txt. Add these lines to /robots.txt and delete any Disallow rule that names these crawlers. ``` # Let AI assistants read the site: they send people to you; a marketplace keeps them. # Remove any Disallow lines for these names elsewhere in this file.
