# Salon Echo: Agent-Direct Score C (63.1%) Site: https://www.SalonEcho.com/ Report: https://directindex.org/r/salonecho.com Scanned: 2026-10-23 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Salon Echo is partly visible to agents. An AI assistant can open Salon Echo'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 on the site. ## Direct links - Book directly: https://salonecho.com/color-change-appointment/ (on the business's own site) - Phone: +17739892358 - Address: 1134 W Bryn Mawr Ave, 60660, Chicago ## Nearby, also direct Places near Salon Echo that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - All Things Adriano LLC (250 m): https://directindex.org/r/allthingsadriano.com - Laws of Hair (440 m): https://directindex.org/r/lawsofhair.com ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+14 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. 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 ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Salon Echo > local business in 1134 W Bryn Mawr Ave, 60660, Chicago, Chicago hairdressers and beauty salons.
