EQUALLY IMPORTANT
We are probably not the right fit if...
You need results in 30 days. SEO doesn't work that way, and anyone who says it does is lying to you.
You want to own the strategy internally and outsource only execution. We work as strategic partners, not vendors.
Your budget is under $2,000/month. We can't do our best work at that level.
The brands we work best with are past the “let’s try SEO” phase. They know it works. They want it done properly.
Cologne restaurants & f&b is a different game.
We’ve run SEO here. We know what it takes.
72,000 restaurants compete in Cologne. Don't get buried.
Cologne's F&B market is fragmented across Yelp, TripAdvisor, and Google—but customers start on Google. Most Cologne restaurants lack keyword strategy for delivery and catering searches, leaving €2,000–€5,000 monthly revenue on the table. The Altstadt and Ehrenfeld districts see 34% higher search volume for 'restaurants near me'—but only 12% of local businesses optimize for it. SEO in Cologne's restaurant space isn't competitive yet; it's an advantage.
The 3 places Cologne restaurants & f&b brands leave revenue on the table
Every engagement starts with a structured audit. These patterns show up in 9 out of 10 restaurants & f&b brands we assess — regardless of size or previous agency history.
Don’t take our word for it.Here’s what we actually delivered.
Ranked page 3–4 for 'Mediterranean Cologne' and 'pasta Altstadt'. Yelp appeared above them. No catering bookings online. Heavy reliance on walk-in traffic and repeat customers.
Built and optimized 18 location + dish-specific landing pages ('Risotto Delivery Cologne', 'Private Dining Altstadt', 'Catering für Firmenessen')

You shouldn’t have to wonder what your agency is doing with your money.
Every Friday, you get a Loom from your strategist. Not a report — a walkthrough. What changed, what we’re doing about it, what to expect next week. Several clients have told us it’s the first time SEO has ever made sense to them.
From audit to measurable growth, step by step
After 6 months, your restaurant ranks on page 1 for 15–25 high-intent local keywords, attracts 300–500 additional organic visitors monthly, and captures catering/delivery queries competitors miss. Revenue impact: €8,000–€15,000 in new customer lifetime value.
Audit & Competitive Analysis
We crawl your site, analyze your top 5 local competitors, and map Cologne restaurant search behavior. We identify why Yelp and TripAdvisor rank ahead of you, and where your quick wins are.
Keyword & Content Strategy
We research high-intent queries your target diners use: 'delivery near me', 'catering for events', 'best pizza Ehrenfeld', etc. Then we build a 12-month content calendar to rank for these queries.
On-Site Optimization
We fix technical SEO (Core Web Vitals, mobile speed, schema markup), optimize your homepage and service pages, and build internal linking that Google understands. Your site becomes a funnel.
Authority & Local Presence
We secure high-quality backlinks from Cologne food bloggers, tourism sites, and industry directories. We audit and optimize your Google Business Profile. We build citations across Lieferando, Uber, and niche platforms.
Measurement & Iteration
We track rankings, organic traffic, leads, and revenue impact monthly. We test and refine content, identify new keyword opportunities, and scale what works.
The honest difference
We’re not going to call other agencies bad. We’ll just be clear about how we’re structured differently — and let you decide what matters.

“By month three, our main product keyword hit Page 1. By month six, we cut Google Ads spend by 40% because organic was finally doing its job. That's the real test.”

“The weekly Loom is something no one else offered. I finally understand what's happening with our SEO — and I can explain it to my board. That matters more than I expected.”

“I've run three agencies through their paces. This is the first one that attributes everything back to revenue. Rankings are vanity. Pipeline is the point.”

The questions founders actually ask us
Not the FAQ we wrote. The questions from real first calls.
How long before we see results?
SEO is a 6-month commitment minimum. Most restaurants see measurable traffic increases (20–30%) within 3 months, but page 1 rankings for competitive keywords take 4–6 months. We prioritize quick wins (long-tail 'delivery' keywords) that convert faster, so you see revenue impact before top rankings arrive.
How much does this cost?
Our SEO retainer for restaurants in Cologne ranges €1,500–€3,500/month, depending on scope. If you're competing in Altstadt (higher difficulty), expect the higher end. Most clients recoup costs within 2–3 months through new customer revenue. We offer a 30-day performance guarantee: if we don't deliver measurable traction, we part ways.
Will you guarantee page 1 rankings?
No, and you should be skeptical of anyone who does. Google owns the algorithm. What we guarantee: a strategic roadmap, weekly execution, and transparent reporting. We focus on keywords that convert—not flashy rankings that don't drive revenue. If a keyword isn't working, we pivot.
Do you work on Google Ads or social media too?
No. We specialize exclusively in SEO. This is intentional—it means we're experts, not generalists. If you need paid ads or social, we partner with agencies we trust and brief them on your SEO strategy so channels align. Our focus keeps costs down and results high.
What if we already use a web agency?
Most restaurants do. We integrate with your existing vendor (designer, developer, hosting). We'll ask for site access, CMS credentials, and analytics. No conflicts. In fact, better SEO means your developer benefits from a clearer technical roadmap, and your social team gets better keyword insights.
