Table stakes
- Tappable phone number CRITICALNo tel: link found on the page. Make the phone number a tel: link. (-12 points)
Findability
- LocalBusiness structured dataHas generic Organization schema but no LocalBusiness markup, so the markup states that this is a company without stating the city it serves or when it is open. Add LocalBusiness markup.
- Service-area or locations pagesNo service-area or locations pages found among this site's internal links. A page for each town or suburb served puts those place names on the site in a form search engines and AI assistants can read.
Content
- Site looks maintainedThe most recent year anywhere on the page is 2024. This check passes at 2025 or later.
- Exactly one H1 headingFound 6 H1 headings. Should be exactly one stating what the business does and where.
AI visibility
- AI crawlers and opt-out tokens allowed in robots.txt CRITICALwww.roofingbyhernandez.com/robots.txt disallows GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended. GPTBot, ClaudeBot are crawlers, so disallowing them asks those vendors not to fetch the page. Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended are not crawlers: they are the tokens a vendor reads to decide whether to train on a page and whether to ground an answer in it, so disallowing them does not stop the page being fetched.
- Machine-readable business identityNo LocalBusiness schema on the page, so the markup states neither the business type nor the place it serves. Add it.
Measured as legibility: whether an assistant can read and understand the site. Assistants are not polled live.
4 of these 6 checks pass. This pillar is capped at 25 whenever the listed site disallows an AI crawler or an opt-out token in robots.txt, which is why it reads 25 here and not 66.7.

Is this your business? Corrections are free and unconditional.
If you would rather not have a page here, write to me and I will take it down. You do not need to give a reason and I will not ask for one. Your page and its share image come down and your name stops linking to anything. Your row in the ranking stays, because the ranking is built from Google's public listings and dropping one business would misstate the market for everyone else in it. Removals are done by hand, so allow up to seven days. A removal is permanent and a later scan does not undo it.
Correcting what a business publishes so assistants can read it properly is work I do for a fee. If that is useful to you, say so in the same email and I will tell you what it would take. If it is not, the scan stays free and public either way.
