Findings

What to fix first

  1. 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. How to fix it

  2. Structured data is incomplete +3 points

    Missing: opening hours. How to fix it

  3. Ordering through an unrecognised third party no points, but worth doing

    Check that the provider keeps your business as the seller of record. How to fix it
