Site: https://www.royalpunjab-hamburg.de/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/royalpunjab-hamburg.de
Scanned: 2026-10-20 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Royal Punjab is hard for agents to use.
Some AI assistants are turned away by Royal Punjab's website. It can read what Royal Punjab offers. To book or order, it is sent to Just Eat, a marketplace.

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+14 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Ordering only through justeat.** (+12 points) Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission. Add a direct way on your own site. Even a simple form will do. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/online-ordering-without-delivery-apps
- **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
- **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
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Restaurant",
  "name": "Royal Punjab",
  "url": "https://www.royalpunjab-hamburg.de/",
  "telephone": "+494088355151",
  "address": {
    "@type": "PostalAddress",
    "streetAddress": "Ernst-Merck-Straße 4"
  },
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 53.5550491,
    "longitude": 10.0074645
  },
  "servesCuisine": [
    "indian"
  ],
  "hasMenu": "https://www.royalpunjab-hamburg.de/Frontend/menucard1"
}
</script>
```

robots.txt. Add these lines to /robots.txt and delete any Disallow rule that names these crawlers.
