Restaurant SEO for Google Search and Maps in Vancouver & Surrey.

A restaurant SEO agency makes your restaurant easy to find, trust and choose when people search on Google, Google Maps and AI assistants. In practice that means a complete Google Business Profile, a menu that search engines can read as real text, accurate listings, a steady flow of genuine reviews, local pages for the areas you serve and ongoing measurement of calls, direction requests and bookings.

It depends on how many locations you have, how competitive your area and cuisine are, and what already exists. We quote after a free audit so you only pay for work that matters, and engagements are month-to-month with no long-term lock-in. Be cautious of anyone who quotes a flat price without looking at your profile and website first.

Profile and listing fixes can show movement within 30 to 60 days. Sustained map pack rankings against established competitors usually take 3 to 6 months and keep compounding with reviews and content. We re-test every quarter so you can see progress in your own numbers.

Restaurant SEO is local SEO built around how diners actually decide: photos, menu, hours, reviews, reservation and ordering links, and nearby alternatives. The foundations are the same, but the priorities, the pages and the listings that matter are specific to restaurants.

Not always. If your site is fast, mobile friendly and your menu is real text rather than a PDF or an image, we can improve what you have. If the site blocks search engines, hides the menu or is very slow, a rebuild is usually the better investment, and we build restaurant websites in-house.

The usual causes are an incomplete or wrongly categorised Google Business Profile, inconsistent name, address and phone details across the web, few recent reviews, no location signals on your website, or a duplicate or suspended listing. A free audit shows which of these apply to you.

Yes. "Near me" results are driven mainly by proximity, your Google Business Profile, review quality and recency, and how clearly your website and listings describe what you serve and where. We cannot change where a customer is standing, but we can make sure that when your restaurant is nearby, it is the one they see.

It helps a great deal. AI assistants read the same ingredients: your Google profile, your website, your menu, your reviews and what other sites say about you. We structure that information so it is consistent and easy to quote. We never promise a position in any AI answer, because those answers change by person and place.

No. Nobody can honestly guarantee a ranking. We commit to the work, the reporting and the timeline, and we measure real outcomes such as calls, direction requests, bookings and orders.

Yes. Each location needs its own Google Business Profile, its own local page and its own review strategy, with a consistent brand across all of them. We set up the structure once and manage it as you grow.

Access to your Google Business Profile and website, your current menu, a few real photos if you have them, and one person who can answer questions within a business day. Everything else we research ourselves.

Restaurant SEO services cover the places diners look before they choose: your Google Business Profile, menu pages that search engines can read, accurate listings, review growth and replies, local pages for the areas you serve, structured data, and tracking of calls, direction requests and bookings. The exact mix depends on your location, your competition and what is already in place.

Ask to see the method, the reporting you will receive and real examples of the work, and be cautious of anyone who promises a number-one ranking, because no one controls Google. Our guide how to choose a restaurant marketing agency lists the questions worth asking.

They do different jobs. Ads can send diners to you quickly but stop when the budget stops, while SEO builds visibility in Google Maps, search and AI answers that keeps working month after month. Many restaurants use ads for launches and slow periods and SEO as the steady base. See paid ads for restaurants if you want both.

Start with your Google Business Profile: the right primary category, accurate hours, working phone and website links, a menu link, real photos and a plan for reviews. It is usually the quickest change and it feeds both Google Maps and AI assistants. Then make the menu readable text on your website.
