About this service

Thai restaurants live and die on three searches: "ร้านอาหารใกล้ฉัน", a craving for a specific dish, and the name of your own restaurant. Most lose all three to aggregators — Wongnai, GrabFood, foodpanda — that rank above the restaurant's own site and take a commission on every order. Restaurant SEO flips that: you own the searches that bring diners through your door, not a platform's.

Signs your restaurant SEO is failing

  • Aggregators outrank you for your own restaurant name
  • No Google Business Profile, or one with old hours, no menu, and few photos
  • A thin site or none — just a Facebook page and a delivery-app link
  • Your menu is a JPG or PDF Google and AI assistants cannot read
  • Few recent reviews — and no replies to the ones you have
  • Invisible for "[dish] near me" and neighbourhood searches
  • No one-tap booking that works on a phone

How weak restaurant SEO impacts you

Restaurant search is local and mobile-first — decided in the map pack and on your Google Business Profile long before anyone reads a page. Every booking that routes through an aggregator instead of your own channel costs 30%+ in commission.

  • Commission leak

    30%+ to delivery apps on orders you could own

  • No diner data

    the platform keeps the customer; you cannot bring them back

  • Lost walk-ins

    without map-pack ranking the table goes to whoever shows up first

  • Price commoditisation

    listed beside 50 others, you compete on discount, not brand

What we deliver

  • Google Business Profile rebuild — categories, full menu, real photos, posts, review acquisition
  • Menu as crawlable text with schema so Google and AI Overviews can read every dish
  • Neighbourhood + dish pages ranking for "[dish] [area]" and "ร้าน...ใกล้ฉัน"
  • Bilingual content — Thai for locals, English for tourists and expats
  • A steady, genuine review flow with replies written in Thai
  • One-tap booking routed straight to WhatsApp or LINE, not a clunky form

Realistic outcome: own your branded and neighbourhood searches within 3-6 months, and cut aggregator dependence as direct bookings grow.

This is one piece of our full service lineup. It pairs with local SEO and Google Maps work, content writing for menu and area pages, and Google Ads to defend your name. Get a free audit and we will show you which searches you are losing today.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about our SEO for restaurants service.

Isn't being on GrabFood and Wongnai enough?

They help you get found, but they own the customer and take 30%+ per order. SEO builds the channel you own — your own site, your Google Business Profile, your reviews — so repeat diners come back to you directly. Use the apps for reach; use SEO to keep the margin.

We only have a Facebook page. Do we need a website?

A simple, fast website helps, but the single highest-leverage asset for a restaurant is a fully optimised Google Business Profile — that is what the map pack ranks. We usually start there, then add lightweight neighbourhood and menu pages that rank for the dishes you are known for.

Do you write in Thai or English?

Both, where it pays. Locals search in Thai ("ร้านอาหารอีสาน ใกล้ฉัน"); tourists and expats search in English. We build the Thai content natively and add English for the queries your foreign customers actually use — see content writing.

How fast will we see results?

Branded and neighbourhood searches usually move in 3-6 months; competitive dish terms take longer. Reviews and a complete profile move the map pack fastest, so that is where we focus first. We report against agreed milestones every month — no fake guarantees.
