Why it matters

Why your restaurant needs SEO

Most diners search on their phone and choose from the top three map results. If your restaurant is not there, it does not exist for them.

Restaurant SEO puts you in those results for the dishes, cuisines and occasions people search for, every single day.

Best pizza in [city]
Brunch open now

The purpose of restaurant SEO

More covers and direct orders from searches you do not pay for, so your marketing budget goes further.

The problem

SEO problems that cost restaurants reservations

The most common issues we find when we audit restaurant websites.

Missing from the map pack

Incomplete profiles and few reviews keep you out of the top three.

PDF menus

Search engines cannot read image or PDF menus, so dishes never rank.

Slow mobile site

Diners leave slow sites and book elsewhere.

Low review volume

Fewer reviews means lower local rankings and trust.

Inconsistent listings

Wrong hours or addresses across directories confuse Google and diners.

No cuisine keywords

Pages that do not mention what you serve cannot rank for it.
