Restaurant website & photography package
Your restaurant's website, built and shot by the same people
Most restaurant website platforms hand you a template and stock photos of someone else's food. We build you a real website in real code — one you own — and we come shoot your kitchen ourselves.
Kennesaw, Georgia. Serving restaurants across metro Atlanta.
What you're actually renting
Every major restaurant website platform charges you monthly for a site you never own. Stop paying and it disappears — the design, the pages, the customer emails, the search rankings you spent two years building.
Then there's what sits on top of the sticker price. Per-order fees of $0.99 to $1.00 on every takeout order. Percentage cuts on catering. Ordering sold as an add-on to a plan that already costs $499 a month. One major platform now requires you to switch your entire point-of-sale system just to stay a customer.
And none of them will ever photograph your food.

Why this package is built the way it is
Most agencies will tell you what they think. Here's what's actually been measured.
For independent restaurants specifically, a one-star increase in rating produced a 5–9% increase in revenue — measured against Washington State tax records across 3,582 Seattle restaurants. The effect showed up only for independents; for chains, ratings barely moved revenue.
Luca, Harvard Business School · 2011, revised 2016
74% of consumers look specifically for reviews written in the last three months. A 4.8-star profile whose newest review is from last October still reads as stale.
BrightLocal Local Consumer Review Survey (n=1,002) · February 2026
Hotels that started responding to reviews saw their average rating rise 0.12 stars and their review volume rise 12%.
Only 6% of people click the first search result and go with it. The top reason they choose a local business is clear, complete information — hours, address, phone.

68% of US Google searches now end without a click. Your Google Business Profile is doing as much work as your website.

Competitor cells describe what each vendor published in its own public materials, verified August 2026 and linked above. "Not published" means the vendor states no figure — BentoBox withdrew its public pricing page in early 2026 and now sells only to Clover point-of-sale customers. Add-ons, per-location charges, and payment processing may apply on other platforms; check current terms directly.
