Did you know that the typical American and Canadian eats out four times per week? Whether it's singles getting together with friends or busy families that just don't have the time or energy to cook, people are actively looking for places to dine out or to unwind and grab a few drinks at a local pub.
While people definitely have their favorite hangouts when it comes to bars and restaurants, they don't want to go to the same place all the time. When they use their smartphone or other device to search for a local restaurant, café, bar, or pub, will it be your business website they see or that of a competitor?
Maybe you know the answer to that question right away because your business doesn't have a website. If so, you're in the right place. Let me put my extensive business management, web design, and web promotion experience to work for you. Hungry people don't have a lot of time to spend finding a place to eat. They will go with what they can find close by that appeals to their cravings. By working with me, you can get your business website in front of people at the exact moment they are searching for great food and drinks.
Think of Your Business Website as Its Online Calling Card
It's already challenging enough for independently-owned businesses in the hospitality industry to compete with the larger chains. An attractive website that is user-friendly on any device allows your business to compete equally with restaurants, cafes, bars, and pubs that have greater name recognition and a longer company history.
The heavy use of smartphones gives people the ability to research their options on the go. Coming up near the top on a search engine results page is essential if you hope to capture that business. Not only will I help your business get found, I will create it with responsive design that anticipates and meets the needs of potential customers. Whether your prospect is searching for a menu, directions, or reviews of your business, I will make sure they find it quickly to avoid them feeling frustrated and clicking off your site.
Optimizing your website to receive free organic traffic is one way to get visitors to your new website. Optimizing your business listing on Google My Business is essential , especially when trying to capitalize on local traffic. Local searchers will find you easier than your competitor down the street who may not even be aware of this resource. The easier you make things for them, the more likely they are to return to eat or drink at your establishment again in the future.
