## What to fix first
- **Ordering through an unrecognised third party.** (+9 points) Check that the provider keeps you as the merchant of record. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/online-ordering-without-delivery-apps
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: address, telephone. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business
