Findings

What to fix first

  1. No structured data for the business +15 points

    Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (HairSalon, BeautySalon or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it

  2. Appointments through an unrecognised third party +9 points

    Check that the provider keeps your business as the seller of record. How to fix it

  3. 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. How to fix it

  4. No llms.txt no points, but worth doing
