After the top fixes

With the two fixes above (Clover's terms ban bots and automated use, but a direct form on your own site has no such limit; Structured data is incomplete), the score would be about 95.4%. That would be 19th of 837 in Minneapolis, up from 159th.

Peers are the businesses in the same index that have a reachable site, using the latest scan of each. The rank comes from the index's current ranking.

Findings

What to fix first

  1. Clover's terms ban bots and automated use, but a direct form on your own site has no such limit +5 points

    Clover's consumer app terms (8 June 2023, section 3.5), linked from its online ordering pages, bar any deep-link, robot, spider or other device or process to access, copy or monitor the site or app, and bar the use of buying agents; no agent programme was found. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://www.clover.com/consumer/terms. An agent that books or orders there goes against the vendor's terms unless the vendor allows it. A form or booking page on your own domain has no such limit. How to fix it About this vendor

  2. Structured data is incomplete +3 points

    Missing: opening hours. How to fix it

  3. 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

  4. The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data

    The site shows 612-501-5594, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +16123774630. 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.

  • Structured data found (LocalBusiness) address, phone
  • Menu or price list is an HTML page Agents can read the items and prices.
  • Ordering through clover on your own domain There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
