In today’s competitive dining landscape, 90% of customers search online before choosing a restaurant – but most restaurant websites miss key opportunities to attract these hungry visitors. At MenuWebsites.com, we’ve helped hundreds of restaurants dominate local search results. Here are our proven SEO strategies:
1. Master Local SEO (The #1 Restaurant Ranking Factor)
Google Business Profile Optimization
✔ Complete every section (photos, hours, attributes)
✔ Post weekly updates (specials/events)
✔ Manage & respond to reviews
✔ Add your menu directly to Google
Local Keyword Targeting
-
“Best [cuisine] in [city]”
-
“[Neighborhood] restaurant”
-
“Family restaurant near me”

2. Menu Optimization That Converts
Do This:
✅ Add text-based menus (not just PDFs)

Click-to-call buttons prominently displayed
