A franchise restaurant website scoped to the units you actually operate

A franchise restaurant website should represent the specific units you operate, inside whatever guidelines your franchisor requires, rather than duplicating the national brand site or ignoring your own locations.

The gap between a national site and your own units

A franchisor's national site usually cannot speak specifically to the units a given franchisee actually runs, and a generic locator can send customers to competitors within the same brand who are not you. A site scoped to your own units closes that gap: it shows your locations, your hours and your local promotions clearly.

Working within brand guidelines

We build within whatever brand assets and usage rules your franchisor requires, logo treatment, required disclosures, approved messaging, while still giving your specific units their own accurate location pages, enquiry routing and local content.

Who franchise restaurant website design is for

  • Multi-unit franchisees operating several units of one brand
  • Franchisees whose local promotions get lost in national messaging
  • Ownership groups that want one site for the units they actually run

Signs you need it

  • The national locator sends guests to units you do not own
  • Your local promotions have nowhere to live online
  • Your unit hours online do not match reality
  • Hiring pages for your units are buried in the national careers site

What you get with franchise restaurant website design

Everything that comes with it, plan by plan

This service is part of a full managed plan, not a one-off job. Here is what runs alongside it.

  • Every plan

    One page per location, not one page pretending to be several

    Every address gets its own page with its own hours, menu highlights and map, so nothing gets averaged across locations.

  • Every plan

    Hours and menu sync

    Change a price or a holiday hour once and it updates everywhere it needs to, without a second location quietly falling behind.

  • Every plan

    Pages that open instantly

    Custom-coded pages served from the edge, 90+ PageSpeed guaranteed, on the home page and on every location page.

  • Every plan

    Enquiries routed to the right location

    A form filled out on the downtown page reaches downtown, not a shared inbox someone checks once a day.

  • Every plan

    Weekly detail updates

    We check for stale specials, seasonal hours and outdated photos across every location on a weekly cycle.

  • Every plan

    Researched articles

    Two to three researched articles a week, written for your area and your kind of restaurant, published under your name.

  • Every plan

    Managed hosting across every location

    Cloudflare hosting with SSL, CDN, DDoS protection and unmetered bandwidth included, nothing itemized, whether you run one room or five.

  • The Route and The Full Circuit

    The AI Engine

    An AI receptionist and site chat that can answer hours, location and menu questions correctly for the right address.

  • The Full Circuit

    The Content Engine

    Three articles a week, three social image posts a week, two reels a week and a managed Google Business Profile for every location.

  • Every plan

    The location finder

    A tool on your home page that asks where someone is and sends them straight to the right location page, correct hours included.

  • Every plan

    SEO, answer engines and AI search built in

    Technical and on-page SEO, a real page per location, answer-first copy, FAQ blocks, structured data (JSON-LD) and an llms.txt file, on every plan.

  • Every plan

    Revisions and your client portal

    5 revisions a month of any size, each done within 2 to 5 working days, requested from one client portal.

  • Every plan

    Your domain, and a clean move from your old site

    One domain included and registered in your name, or your own pointed at the new site, with redirects from your old addresses.

How the work is done, step by step

The same four steps for every plan. The launch clock starts at the onboarding call, not at purchase.

  1. Step 1

    You order and pay the first month

    That starts the plan. The build fee is not charged yet.

  2. Step 2

    Onboarding form and one call

    About 15 minutes per location on the form, then one call to fill gaps and agree the launch date.

  3. Step 3

    We build and you review

    Every page on the shared system, checked on a phone, for speed and against your real hours and menu.

  4. Step 4

    Launch, then the build fee

    Live in 7 to 15 days depending on plan. The $647 build fee is invoiced after you approve.

How long it takes and what it costs

The price does not change with the number of locations. What drives the choice of plan is how much you want running on top of the site: the AI Engine on The Route, the Content Engine on The Full Circuit.

From teams who chose this

  • The diner group visits page used to describe everything and route nothing. Inquiries arrive at the right office already labeled, no internal relay required. Customers no longer need a map of our internal structure.

    Location information and contact routing for diner group visits

  • Our old change process for diner group visits content was informal to the point of folklore. Now I send the current wording and its replacement, review the preview, and confirm. The follow-up email chains that used to accompany every edit have gone.

What is not included

So there are no surprises later. Everything else on this page is inside the monthly fee.

  • Changes to your franchisor's own website
  • Legal review of franchise agreements or brand-use rights
  • National marketing campaigns

What we guarantee on franchise restaurant website design

  • The build fee comes last

    The $647 one-time build fee is invoiced only after your site is live and you have told us you are satisfied with it. Cancel before the build starts and no build fee is charged.

  • 90+ PageSpeed, guaranteed

    On mobile and desktop, for pages we build and host. If a page drops below 90+ because of our work, we fix it at no charge.

  • Ranking work until it ranks

    If your site has not started ranking for local searches in your area within 3 to 5 months of launch, we keep doing the search work at no additional charge until it does.

  • Monthly, with a clear exit

    No long contract. Email us at least 2 business days before your next invoice date (business hours are 9:00 to 17:00 Central Time, Monday to Friday, excluding United States public holidays) and no further invoice is raised.

  • Your domain stays yours

    Registered in your name. If you leave, we transfer it at no charge and send an export of your content and articles.

The fine print, in plain words: all sales are final, and neither guarantee is a refund. They do not cover changes made by you or third parties, or rankings for terms outside your area. Full wording is in the terms and the refund policy.

Questions about franchise restaurant website design

Does this replace the national franchise website?

No. It represents your ownership group and the units you operate alongside whatever national site your franchisor maintains, not instead of it.

Can we follow required brand guidelines from the franchisor?

Yes. Share the brand assets and any usage rules you must follow, and the site is built within them.

Will customers be sent to units we do not own?

No. The location finder and every location page are scoped strictly to the units you operate.

Can we run our own local promotions separate from national ones?

Yes, on a promotions section specific to your units, updated as a normal revision whenever you have a new offer.

Do I need franchisor approval for this site?

Many franchise agreements set rules for websites and brand use. Check yours; we build within the guidelines and assets you share, and it is your responsibility to confirm the site is allowed.

Can the site carry a franchise brand notice?

Yes. A clearly labeled notice explaining that your group independently operates the units shown can sit on every page, worded as your franchisor requires.

Can we list jobs for each unit?

Yes. A careers page can list openings tagged by unit, so applicants reach the right manager.

Can the AI Engine answer for each unit?

On The Route and The Full Circuit, it answers using each unit's own hours and details and hands anything else to your team.
