Everything below is measured, reproducible and free to quote. If you need a figure that is not here, ask and we will measure it.
A free directory of the 303 businesses a Bastrop County property transaction touches — agents, title companies, lenders, inspectors, trades and short-term rentals — each with a measured score for how well its website performs on nine objective checks. Published by WholeTech in Bastrop County. Part of the same network as Lost Pines Guide.
The county-wide average across all trades is 72. The finding worth
a story is the last one: 10 of 18 agent websites publish no
llms.txt or AGENTS.md, the files that let AI
assistants read and recommend a business. Real estate is a referral trade
meeting a referral technology, and almost nobody in this county is ready
for it.
The method is published in full and every check can be verified by viewing a site's page source. The ranking is not for sale, and the publish step aborts if it is ever not strictly in measured order.
