things to fix
Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.
What to fix first
- The site turns every visitor without a browser away, AI agents included +23 points
A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge); only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent is turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the rendered page. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. How to fix it
- No menu or price list found +7 points
Agents answer 'what do they offer' from marketplaces instead. Add a menu or price list page and link it from the homepage. How to fix it
- Almost no text without JavaScript no points, still worth doing
Crawlers that do not run scripts see an empty page. Render the menu, hours and address as plain HTML. How to fix it
No one is listed yet to fix this in Washington. List your agency or yourself: free, reviewed by hand.
Already right
- robots.txt lets AI crawlers in There is no robots.txt, which allows everything.
- Structured data present (Restaurant) address, phone, opening hours
- Booking on your own site Agents can book without a marketplace in the loop.
Builder: popmenu · Front: cloudflare · A plain fetch got cloudflare_challenge; a real browser got the page, so the scan continues on the rendered page.
