Can you add our menu so we can update it ourselves?

Yes. We'll set it up so you can swap out items, change prices, or add specials without calling anyone. If your menu changes seasonally or you run weekly specials, that matters a lot.

What if we already use a system like Square Online or Toast for ordering?

We'll tie it right into the site so it feels like one experience. Your customers click an order button and everything stays smooth — no janky redirects to a page that looks completely different.

Do we need professional photos or can we use what we have?

Use what you have if it's decent. A well-lit phone photo of a plate of food beats a generic image every time. If your photos need help, we can talk about that, but don't let it stop you from getting started.

How do we show up when people search for restaurants during Trade Days?

That's where SEO comes in. The website itself is the foundation, but if you want to rank for searches like 'restaurants near Canton Trade Days,' the SEO package is built for exactly that kind of local visibility.

Will the site look good on phones?

Every site we build works on phones first. Most people searching for a restaurant are on their phone, standing somewhere hungry, trying to decide where to go. That's the experience we design for.

Your Menu Shouldn't Be a Scavenger Hunt

A restaurant website has one job: get people through the door or on the phone. That means your menu needs to be readable without pinching and zooming, your hours need to be right there when the page loads, and your phone number needs to be tappable on a phone. That's it. Everything else is extra.

What Actually Goes on a Restaurant Site That Works

You need good photos. Real ones — your food, your dining room, your patio if you've got one. People eat with their eyes first, and a dark, blurry phone pic from 2019 isn't doing you any favors. We'll make sure those photos load fast and look sharp on every screen size.

If you do online ordering or reservations through a third-party system, that gets built right into the site. Not a random link that dumps people on some other page. Same with your Google Maps pin — folks coming in from out of town for First Monday need to find you without thinking about it.

A Site That Keeps Up With Canton's Foot Traffic

Canton gets waves of visitors that most small towns don't. Trade Days alone brings thousands of people through Van Zandt County every month, and a good chunk of them are going to eat somewhere. When they pull out their phone and search for food nearby, your restaurant either shows up looking good or it doesn't show up at all.

A full restaurant website starts at $1,500 and takes about a week. That gets you a clean design with your menu, photo gallery, hours, location, and whatever online ordering or reservation setup you're using. If you want to show up better in search results — so people actually find you before they find the chain places — a website plus SEO package starts at $3,500.

And look, if you just need something simple — maybe you're a food truck working the Trade Days crowds or a small café on the square — a straightforward site starting at $300 can be done in a few days. No shame in starting small. You can always build on it later.

Hosting runs $50 a month, which keeps your site fast, secure, and updated so you're not worrying about it while you're running a kitchen. You focus on the food. We'll make sure people can find you.
