# Yuzu Spa: Agent-Direct Score F (38.9%) Site: http://yuzuspa.com Report: https://directindex.org/r/yuzuspa.com Scanned: 2026-10-23 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Yuzu Spa is largely invisible to agents. Some AI assistants are turned away by Yuzu Spa's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Vagaro. ## Direct links - Book directly: https://www.vagaro.com/yuzuspa (through vagaro acting for the business) - Phone: (212) 278-0763 - Address: 135 W 29th St, 10018, New York - Prices: 20 prices on the site, the middle one $148 ## Nearby, also direct Places near Yuzu Spa that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Park Ave Barbershop (60 m): https://directindex.org/r/parkavebarbershop.com - Marc Joseph Salon & Spa (70 m): https://directindex.org/r/marcjosephsalon.com - Apex Barber Shop NYC (130 m): https://directindex.org/r/apexbarbershopnyc.com - On Your Mark Sports Massage and Fitness (150 m): https://directindex.org/r/onyourmark.nyc - Charlotte Nails (170 m): https://directindex.org/r/maryscenter.org ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (HairSalon, BeautySalon 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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost?' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_403), ClaudeBot (http_403) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business ## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored) - **20 prices on the landing page, the middle one $148.** In New York, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is $75.00. ## Fix kit: What to paste Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Yuzu Spa > local business in 135 W 29th St, 10018, New York, New York hairdressers and beauty salons.
