Your Website Is Turning Away Hungry Customers
If customers can't find your menu, hours, or location in seconds, they'll pick somewhere else
A PDF menu from 2019? A Facebook page with old photos? Customers want to see what you offer before they decide.
Third-party apps take 30% of your revenue. Your own ordering system keeps more money in your pocket.
Your competitors rank for "best pizza in [town]" while you're nowhere to be found. Local SEO matters.
Solutions
What Your Restaurant Website Needs
I build restaurant websites that make mouths water and phones ring
Beautiful, mobile-friendly menus you can update yourself in 30 seconds. Add daily specials, mark items as sold out, update prices. No developer needed.
Accept orders directly. Keep 100% of the revenue instead of paying 30% to third-party apps. Integrates with Square, Toast, Clover, or your existing POS.
Prominent hours, directions, and contact info above the fold. Customers shouldn't have to hunt for your address or phone number.
Private party inquiries, catering requests, and reservation forms that actually convert, which means more high-margin event bookings.

Conversion Strategy
How Restaurant Websites Drive Revenue
Your website should work as hard as your kitchen staff
Local SEO: Rank for "[food type] near me"
When someone searches "pizza near me" or "best sushi in [city]," you show up. Local SEO optimization, Google Business Profile integration, and location-specific keywords.
Mobile-First Design: 70% of restaurant searches are mobile
People search on their phones while deciding where to eat. Your menu, hours, and ordering button must work perfectly on mobile, or they pick someone else.
Click-to-Call: Turn browsers into callers instantly
Phone numbers that dial with one tap on mobile. Prominent placement above the fold. When customers are ready to order or ask questions, make it effortless.
Reviews & Social Proof: Build trust before they visit
Showcase your Google reviews, Instagram feed, and customer photos. Social proof turns "maybe" into "let's go there."
