Bookings, menus, online ordering, search. Written by the people building the product, between services.
Website, social and ordering logins seldom reach a restaurant's offboarding checklist — so unless someone revokes them, a former manager can still publish a wrong price.
Click depth to a booking is one measurable number, countable in a minute. On a template-built site it is usually not one, and the friction never reaches the owner as a problem.
A \"free delivery over £40\" offer does not make the fee non-calculable: a mandatory delivery charge must stay in the running total until the basket reaches the threshold.
Nobody ever removes a widget that has stopped being useful, so it keeps fetching from someone else's server on every page view, and the cost lands on a guest who quietly gives up.
Nobody warns a restaurant before its website add-ons renew, and the rules announced for January 2027 were drafted for consumers, so the recurring fees keep leaving unannounced.
Google's new AI report lists impressions, pages, countries, devices and dates — an impressions instrument, not a traffic one, and a missing click figure is no failure.
A dish photograph set as a CSS background is excluded from image indexing outright, however sharp it is, and the decisions that settle the rest are made when the site is built.
The cancellation rights a shopper takes for granted stop at the business name on the contract, which is why the exit-fee clause costs more to ignore than the sales page.
With some ordering arrangements a restaurant's takings sit with a payment firm, outside FSCS cover; firms that failed between 2018 and 2023 left average shortfalls of 65%.
Signing a second lease forces a website decision most owners make in a fortnight, and the wrong structure leaves two menus quietly drifting apart for years.
Nominet's transfer code goes to the registrant of record, not whoever pays the renewal. If that is a former web designer, the delay lands on the restaurant mid-switch.
Most restaurants pick a loyalty mechanic on what it costs to print, not on what guests say they want, and the published ranking puts stamp cards fifth of ten.
