Why Have a Web Site?

Have you or any of your patrons asked,

             Does your restaurant have a web site?

Do you follow this question with statements such as:

"Building and maintaining it will take too much time."
"Building a web site is too expensive."
"We've gotten along just fine all these years without one."

What do we say in response, (other than – more & more restaurants are putting up web sites – don’t be left behind) ?

Here are our top ten reasons to have a web site for your restaurant:

1. Patrons and potential patrons can find information about your restaurant 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
    
2. Patrons can review your online menu to find out what you have to offer in advance.  They won’t have to guess about your menu selection.
    
3. You can have photos (we can take pictures if necessary ), provide a history about your restaurant, provide information about your restaurant’s specialty and/or what makes your restaurant unique.
    

4. Directions and hours of operation can be put on the web site for access at any time.
   
    
5. The staff will have fewer interruptions for routine requests about directions, proper attire, banquets and/or catering information, as well as other requests.
    

6. You can provide information about specials, coupons, or upcoming events.
    

7. Out of town visitors can easily find out information about the restaurant.
    

8. An employment application form can be posted to your site which can be completed and submitted online; job listings can also be posted.
    
9. A web site provides an additional way to stay in contact with patrons.  You can send emails to patrons opting in to your email list.
    
10. A form can be provided on your web site for patrons to fax in orders.
