Restaurant local SEO that starts with page architecture, not an add-on package

Restaurant local SEO starts with having a real page for the menu and every location you operate, because that is what gives search engines something specific to rank, before any article or backlink work even begins.

Local SEO, stacked from the base, drawn as a burger: 90+ PageSpeed base, a page per location, schema by page type, internal links between pages, weekly researched articles. Tito gives a thumbs-up

Who this is for

Is this page describing your kitchen?

This page is for an owner who knows people search for food near them and suspects those searches are finding somebody else. You are not asking for a national ranking. You want to be the obvious answer within a few miles of your kitchen, on a phone, at dinner time.

The signs

Four things that mean it is time

  • Searching your food type plus your neighborhood does not return you.
  • Your hours are different in three places online and you do not know which is right.
  • You have one page for four delivery areas.
  • An AI assistant asked about your city names three competitors and not you.

Page architecture is the foundation

A site with a single generic "menu" page and one address gives a search engine almost nothing to match against a specific search like takeaway near a named neighborhood. We build a real menu page structure and a dedicated page per location, each with its own content, which is the single biggest structural factor in how an independent kitchen competes against national chains and directory sites.

Technical fundamentals, handled by default

A 90 or higher PageSpeed score, clean URL structure, proper heading hierarchy and schema markup matched to the page type are part of every build, not an upgrade. These fundamentals matter because a slow or poorly structured page can undo the benefit of an otherwise strong menu.

Ongoing content instead of a launch-and-forget site

Search engines and AI answer tools both favor sites that keep publishing, which is why every plan includes researched articles on a weekly schedule rather than a one-time content package. Articles link back into your menu and location pages, compounding the effect of the page architecture over time.

What is included

What you actually get, line by line

All of it inside the monthly plan. Nothing below is quoted separately or billed by the hour.

  • Technical SEO: titles, descriptions, headings, canonical addresses, sitemaps, internal links, image alt text
  • A real page for each location and each service area you genuinely cover
  • Structured data for the business, the menu and service pages, your FAQ blocks and breadcrumbs
  • Answer-first content so your facts can be lifted into a snippet or an assistant's answer
  • llms.txt and consistent business facts across every page, so an AI can attribute you correctly
  • Weekly articles that build topical ground around what people search before ordering

What lands in the build

  • A real page per location

    Content specific to each address, hours and delivery zone.

  • 90 or higher PageSpeed

    A technical foundation that supports ranking rather than working against it.

  • Schema markup by page type

    Menu, FAQ and breadcrumb schema matched to what is actually on the page.

  • Weekly researched articles

    Ongoing content that links back into your core menu and location pages.

  • Internal linking between related pages

    Menu pages, location pages and articles connected to each other.

What is not included

The things we will not pretend to do

  • Buying links, which is against search engine guidelines and eventually costs you more than it earns.
  • Posting daily to your Google Business Profile, or managing reviews on your behalf.
  • Guaranteeing a position. We commit to the work and to a ranking window in the terms, not to a rank.

If one of these is the thing you actually need, say so on the call. We would rather point you somewhere else than sell you a plan that does not fit.

What drives the work

The price is fixed. This is what changes the effort

You pay the plan price whatever your kitchen looks like. These are the things that decide how much of the first two weeks we spend on structure, and they are worth thinking about before the onboarding call.

  • How many locations and service areas need genuinely distinct pages
  • Whether an existing site has a history of thin or duplicated pages to unwind
  • How competitive your food category is in your particular town

Plans start at $117 a month with a $647 one-time build fee invoiced only after launch. See all three plans.

How the work is done

Four steps, and what you do at each one

  1. 1

    Onboarding form and one call

    About fifteen minutes of form, then a call where we fill the gaps and agree the launch date. The launch clock starts at the call, not at purchase.

  2. 2

    Structure before decoration

    Menu sections, modifiers, zones, locations and the ordering path are agreed first, because that is what the design has to serve.

  3. 3

    Build and review

    Every page custom coded and checked against the 90+ PageSpeed target on mobile and desktop. You see it and say what is wrong before anyone else does.

  4. 4

    Launch, then the weekly work

    Live in 7 days on Order Starter. After that: articles, revisions and technical checks every week, and the build fee invoiced only once you have approved the site.

From a kitchen like yours

One operator, one specific change

  • The reporting for takeaway ordering is something I can genuinely use. Submissions carry their originating page, so content and inquiries can finally be compared. It establishes honest measurement without pretending to prove results.

Where you trade

Local, in the real sense of the word

Local search is won street by street. A kitchen in Georgia competing with three wing shops on one road needs different pages from a delivery brand covering half of a Texas suburb, and we build the page set from your real coverage rather than a list of states.

Guarantees

The promises that are actually in the contract

Every line below is in the terms and conditions, not just on this page. If a claim only exists in marketing copy, it is not a guarantee.

  • 90+ PageSpeed, in writing

    We guarantee a Google PageSpeed score of 90+ on mobile and desktop for pages we build and host. If a page falls below it because of our work, we fix it at no charge.

  • Local rankings inside 3 to 5 months

    The terms commit to your site starting to rank for local searches in your area within 3 to 5 months of launch. If it has not, we continue the search work at no additional charge until it does.

  • The build fee is invoiced after you approve the site

    The $647 one-time build fee is not taken at signup. It is invoiced once your site is live and you have said you are happy with it, which is why it is not refundable afterwards.

  • No hourly billing, ever

    5 revisions a month are included and a revision has no size limit. After the fifth, each is a flat $20. Everything is completed within 2 to 5 working days.

  • The domain and your content stay yours

    Your domain is registered in your name, and if you leave you tell us where to send it and we transfer it at no charge. On cancellation we provide an export of your content and articles within 14 days.

  • Cancel with 2 business days notice

    By email, before your next invoice date. No lock-in period, no exit fee, no clause that keeps billing you for a site you asked us to stop.

The limits are stated too: neither guarantee covers changes you or a third party make, content published against our advice, or rankings for terms outside your area. Neither entitles you to a refund. The remedy is the corrective work, done at our cost.

Questions about restaurant local SEO

Do you guarantee a specific search ranking?

No. We do not guarantee a ranking position, because search engines control results and factors outside any single site's control affect it. We do guarantee the technical and structural fundamentals: 90 or higher PageSpeed and a real page for your menu and each location.

How long before we see a change in search visibility?

This varies by market and competition, and we do not promise a specific timeline, since doing so would mean guessing at factors we do not control. Page architecture and technical fundamentals are in place from launch; content compounds from there.

Do you build backlinks?

Backlink building is not part of the standard plans. The build focuses on the fundamentals within our control: page architecture, technical performance, schema and ongoing content.

Can you optimize an existing site instead of rebuilding it?

In most cases a rebuild delivers a stronger result, since page-builder sites often carry technical debt that limits how much optimization alone can fix. A redesign consultation can confirm which approach fits your current site.

Do you manage our Google Business Profile?

We make sure the facts on your site match what a profile should say, which is the part that affects how you are understood. Posting to the profile and replying to reviews there is not part of these plans, and we will not imply otherwise.

How many location pages should we have?

One per place you genuinely trade, and none for places you do not. A page for a town you have never delivered to is a doorway page: search engines filter it, and it drags down the pages that were honest.

What is the ranking guarantee exactly?

The terms commit to your site starting to rank for local searches in your area within 3 to 5 months of launch, and to continuing the search work at no extra charge if it has not. It is a commitment about work, not about a position, and it is not a refund.

How do we show up in AI answers?

By being readable, consistent and quotable: clean structured data, the same business facts everywhere, plain statements of your hours, zones and lead times, and an llms.txt describing the site. No supplier can guarantee an AI mention, and one that does is guessing.
