Report: https://directindex.org/r/thehushpuppylv.com
Scanned: 2026-10-25 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Hush Puppy is largely invisible to agents.
AI assistants can't open Hush Puppy's website, so they go by what other sites say about it.

## What to fix first
- **The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge). 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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2023.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Las Vegas, 79% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.

## 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
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Restaurant",
  "name": "Hush Puppy",
  "url": "http://www.thehushpuppylv.com/",
  "address": {
    "@type": "PostalAddress",
    "streetAddress": "West Charleston Boulevard 7185",
    "postalCode": "89117",
    "addressLocality": "Las Vegas"
  },
  "geo": {

  ]
}
</script>
```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There's no robots.txt, which means everything is allowed.
- **Structured data found (Organization).** no address, phone or hours in it
