About Design and Direct Source
from our crawl and measurement
"Design & Direct has been proving since 2006 that creativity & affordability are not mutually exclusive. View our tiles & stones by material, usage, or style." That is how Design and Direct Source introduces itself. When AI engines look at it, they find little to work with. It scores 4.5 out of 10.
Our crawl found a readable heading structure. It is missing structured data describing the business, an llms.txt file and a sitemap.
AI crawlers have visited 3 times in our tracking, including ClaudeBot (Anthropic) and Meta AI.

At 4.5/10, Design and Direct Source is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
