Agents answer 'what do they offer?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with the menu or price list and link to it from the homepage. How to fix it
- GloriaFood's terms ban bots and automated use, but a direct form on your own site has no such limit +5 points
GloriaFood's terms of use (6 February 2024, Oracle) say you agree not to use any robot, spider, scraper or other automated means without written permission; GloriaFood reaches end of life on 30 April 2027. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://www.gloriafood.com/terms-of-use. 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
- No working HTTPS +3 points

- Almost no text without JavaScript +2 points
