Industry-specific
Free SEO Audit for Restaurants
Restaurant websites live or die on three things: how fast the menu loads on a phone, whether Google can read your hours and address, and whether your reservation flow works. The audit checks all three in 30 seconds.

Why restaurants struggle with SEO
Menu PDFs (instead of HTML menus) are invisible to Google and slow on mobile.
Reservation widgets loaded synchronously block the page and cripple Core Web Vitals.
Missing Restaurant / Menu schema means Google cannot show your menu in search results.
What we typically find on restaurants sites
- Menu offered only as PDF download
- Hero video autoplays unmuted, blocking LCP
- No Restaurant / Menu JSON-LD
- Hours and address not present as crawlable text
- OpenGraph image missing or wrong aspect ratio (no rich previews when shared)
How we check this
Nothing on this page is estimated. When you submit a URL the audit engine fetches the live page and runs the same probes on every site — the list above is simply the subset that fails most often on restaurants sites.
- Server-side HTML fetch: title, meta description, headings, canonical, hreflang, robots directives and internal links are parsed from the response body.
- Google PageSpeed Insights: Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, INP) and the mobile render, pulled from the free public API.
- Structured data: every JSON-LD, microdata and RDFa block is parsed and checked for the types this industry needs.
- Crawlability: robots.txt rules, sitemap presence and reachability, HTTPS and certificate validity, and a sampled internal-link check for 404s.
