After the top fixes
With the three fixes above (No structured data for the business; No tickets and prices found; No working HTTPS), the score would be about 87.7%. That would be 2nd of 74 in Victoria tours, attractions and museums, up from 40th.
What to fix first
- No structured data for the business +14 points
Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (TouristAttraction, Museum, TravelAgency or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it
- No tickets and prices found +7 points
Agents answer 'what does it cost and when?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with tickets, times and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. How to fix it
- No working HTTPS +3 points
The page is only served over plain http. Browsers and agents rank it lower or refuse it.
- 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
- The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data
The site shows +4248999052, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists (250) 999-8424. An assistant that sees two numbers can't tell which one to trust. Fix whichever is wrong, on the site or in the map data at openstreetmap.org.
