Findings

What to fix first

  1. The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included +25 points

    A plain fetch was refused (http_403). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. How to fix it

Already right

  • robots.txt lets AI crawlers in There's no robots.txt, which means everything is allowed.
  • Structured data found (Restaurant) address, phone, opening hours
  • Menu or price list is an HTML page Agents can read the items and prices.
  • Booking on your own site Agents can book without going through a marketplace.
  • Ordering through doordash_storefront on your own domain There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.

Builder: duda · A plain fetch got http_403; a real browser got the page, so the scan continues on the rendered page.
