things to fix

Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.

Findings

What to fix first

  1. No way to book an appointment online +13 points

    Only a phone number or WhatsApp. Agents cannot act on those yet. Add an online appointment page. How to fix it

  2. 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 with services and prices as text and link it from the homepage. How to fix it

  3. The server turns AI crawlers away at the door +6.7 points

    Live fetches as GPTBot (http_429), ClaudeBot (http_429) were refused while a normal browser got the page. This is usually a hosting or firewall bot list the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. How to fix it

  4. Structured data is incomplete +3 points

    Missing: opening hours. How to fix it

No one is listed yet to fix this in Vancouver hairdressers and beauty salons. List your agency or yourself: free, reviewed by hand.

Assistants

What assistants answer

Each assistant is asked three questions about this business: the official website, where to book, where to order. The cell says where the answer sent people.

Not asked yet. Assistants are asked about the top-ranked businesses in each city index, and about every claimed business the moment it is claimed; claim this page to be included.

Fixed something, or think a check is wrong? Rescans are free. Claiming takes one email to confirm; after that the three assistants are asked about the business right away, the site is rescanned weekly, and you get a message only when the score changes.
