Findings

What to fix first

  1. No booking or ordering 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 a booking or ordering page on your own domain. How to fix it

  2. Structured data is incomplete +7 points

    Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. How to fix it

  3. No menu or price list found +7 points

    Agents answer 'what do they offer?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with the menu or price list and link to it from the homepage. How to fix it

  4. 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. How to fix it
