## What to fix first
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. 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

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **4 prices on the landing page, the middle one $63.00.** In Los Angeles, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is $65.00.

- **Ordering through square on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
