Sometimes, restaurant websites just make us crazy. I do not know if restaurants spend so much time on dialing in the operations that digital marketing and web development is secondary, or if it is a case of bad advice. Either way, Kevin and Greg discuss The Biggest Mistake Restaurant Websites Make on Episode 29 of The New Marketing Show.
When a restaurant website uses a .pdf for their online menu it breaks every rule of user experience and trickles down to breaking the brand experience. This poor experience leads to frustration and often turns people away from their business. This problem is an easy one to solve through strategic web development and thoughtful UX.
Key Takeaways
• Stock Images are alive and well on restaurant websites
• pdf files do no scale and behave appropriately on mobile devices
• The website is the beginning of the brand experience and an extension of the food served

While I’ve known Greg for years from our time together in the marketing scene, I’ve only recently had the chance to work with Trinity Web Media on a client project. Not only was the team professional and their work spot on, they were amazingly quick to respond and required very little hand-holding along the way. I chalk that up to their past experience and a deep understanding of best-in-class services.
