After the top fixes
With the three fixes above (The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included; Ordering through an unrecognised third party; No menu or price list found), the score would be about 92.3%. That would be 30th of 607 in Houston, up from 592nd.
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.
What to fix first
- 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
- Ordering through an unrecognised third party +9 points
Check that the provider keeps your business as the seller of record. How to fix it
- No menu or price list found +7 points
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
- Structured data is incomplete +2 points
Missing: telephone. How to fix it
