Spring Cleaning Your Restaurant’s Digital Presence: 5 Easy Tips to Freshen Up Online

Spring is here—and while you’re dusting off the patio furniture and sprucing up the dining room, don’t forget your digital presence needs a little TLC, too. Your website, online menus, and social media are often the first impression new customers get—so let’s make sure they sparkle.

Here’s your 5-step digital deep clean to boost visibility, attract more customers, and drive more orders.

1. Sweep Away Broken Links & Outdated Info

Nothing frustrates customers more than clicking a link and landing on a “404 error” or finding outdated hours.

  • Test every link on your website, social media, and Google listing.

  • Make sure your hours, contact info, and location are current everywhere.

  • Verify that online ordering links direct customers to the right page (especially if you’ve switched platforms).

Why It Matters:


77% of consumers lose trust in a business with incorrect or inconsistent information online.

2. Go Mobile or Go Home

More than ever, customers are searching and ordering from their phones. If your site isn’t mobile-friendly, you’re losing business.

  • Pull out your phone and navigate your website like a customer would.

  • Check for slow load times, clunky formatting, or hard-to-click buttons.

  • Confirm that your online ordering process is smooth and easy on mobile.

Why It Matters:


91% of consumers say they’re more likely to shop with brands that offer a mobile-friendly experience.

3. Connect Your Socials Like a Pro

Your social media should be a direct pipeline to your online ordering—not a dead end.

  • Make sure your website links are easy to find on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok.

  • Add call-to-action buttons like “Order Now” or “Reserve a Table.”

  • Regularly post links to your menu, promotions, or specials.

Why It Matters:


Restaurants that actively promote online ordering through social media see up to 20% more orders

4. Declutter Your Menu

Your menu is your digital storefront—keep it fresh and enticing.

  • Remove seasonal items you’re no longer offering.

  • Add mouthwatering photos of best-sellers or new dishes.

  • Ensure your descriptions are clear and crave-worthy.

Why It Matters:


Restaurants with visual-rich, well-optimized menus can increase online sales by 30% or more.

5. Polish Your Reviews & Ratings

Reviews are digital word-of-mouth and can make or break your reputation.

  • Respond to recent reviews—both positive and negative—to show you care.

  • Encourage happy customers to leave reviews with simple CTAs on receipts or order confirmations.

  • Feature positive testimonials on your website or social media.

Why It Matters:


94% of diners are influenced by online reviews when choosing where to eat.

Time to Freshen Up Your Digital Game
