Problems found

2 critical problems found. These are specific, checkable faults on the site — not opinions about it.

• CriticalSearch engines are being told not to index this siteThe site’s own robots.txt disallows crawling. Until that changes, nothing else on this page can help — the pages cannot enter the index in the first place.
• CriticalThe homepage carries a noindex instructionA meta robots or X-Robots-Tag directive is asking search engines to leave this page out of results.
• Worth fixingNo XML sitemap foundSearch engines have to discover every page by following links. On a small site that is survivable; on a large one it is not.
• Worth fixingStructured data present, but no LocalBusiness markupThe page describes something to machines, but not that it is a local business with an address and opening hours.
• Worth fixingVery little published contentThe homepage carries 361 words and the site links to no blog, news or insights section. There is little here for a search engine to match, or for an assistant to quote.
