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.
Lyon restaurants & f&b is a different game.
We’ve run SEO here. We know what it takes.
Your competitors rank higher. Your customers find them first.
Lyon's F&B market is fragmented across review platforms—Yelp, TripAdvisor, and Google dominate discovery. Most restaurants spend €2,600/month on digital marketing but see minimal organic search ROI. Catering and delivery queries go unanswered. The gap between 'average' and 'found' is a structured SEO strategy most agencies won't build.
The 3 places Lyon 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 #12–15 for core searches; zero visibility for 'catering for 100+' and 'delivery near Part-Dieu'. Yelp reviews were strong but traffic didn't convert to reservations. €2,800/month digital spend with no measurable ROI.

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
Within 6 months, you rank for 30+ high-intent keywords your competitors ignore. Organic traffic grows 150–280%. Catering and delivery inquiries become predictable. You own your search presence instead of hoping for good reviews.
Audit Your Search Profile
We analyze where you rank (or don't) for delivery, catering, reservations, and local queries. We map competitor keywords and identify the 40–60 high-intent terms your website ignores. This includes a full technical SEO scan and review platform audit.
Build Your Keyword Strategy
We create a Lyon-specific keyword roadmap: local search terms ('best restaurant Presqu'île'), intent-based queries ('vegan catering Lyon'), and long-tail delivery keywords. Each keyword tier gets assigned to the right page (homepage, menu page, catering page).
Optimize On-Page & Technical SEO
We rewrite title tags, meta descriptions, headers, and schema markup (local business, menu, events, catering services). We fix page speed, mobile UX, and internal linking. Google My Business is fully optimized with photos, posts, and service categories.
Launch Content & Link Building
We create blog posts targeting delivery and catering queries ('How to Plan a Corporate Lunch in Lyon'). We earn backlinks from local Lyon food directories, events, and partnerships. This signals authority to Google for your target keywords.
Monitor, Report & Scale
Monthly reporting on rankings, organic traffic, leads, and reservations. We identify what's working and double down. A/B testing on CTAs, schema, and content ensures continuous improvement. Quarterly strategy reviews adjust for seasonal demand.
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.

“They found a technical issue in week one that had been suppressing our rankings for over a year. Two previous agencies missed it completely. That was the moment I knew.”

Director of Growth · E-commerce Brand
“Month-to-month contracts and no lock-in wasn't just a selling point — it forced them to earn our business every month. They always did.”

CEO · Professional Services, $6M revenue
“We'd tried two SEO agencies before. Both gave us dashboards and monthly reports with no movement. Omakaase told us what was actually broken in week one and fixed it. Six months in, we're on page one for every term that matters.”

The questions founders actually ask us
Not the FAQ we wrote. The questions from real first calls.
How long until we see ranking improvements?
Quick wins (technical fixes, GMB optimisation) show impact within 2–4 weeks. Meaningful ranking improvements for competitive keywords take 8–12 weeks. Full strategy ROI (revenue impact) typically appears at month 4–6. We set monthly milestones so you see progress every step.
What if we're already on Yelp and Google reviews? Why do we need SEO?
Reviews drive trust but don't drive search visibility. Someone searching 'catering for 100 in Lyon' won't find your Yelp page—they'll find whoever ranks on Google. SEO captures that demand before the review conversation even starts. You need both: reviews for trust, SEO for discovery.
Does SEO work for delivery and catering businesses specifically?
Absolutely. Delivery and catering are high-intent, local queries with low competition. Businesses ranking for 'corporate catering Lyon' or 'vegan delivery Presqu'île' see 60–80% conversion rates. These aren't vanity searches—they're people ready to pay.
What's your typical retainer range? Does it fit our budget?
We work with budgets €1,200–€5,000/month depending on scope. Most Lyon restaurants start at €2,200–€3,100/month for full SEO + content + monthly management. We offer smaller packages for diagnostics or done-with-you setups. Let's talk about what ROI looks like for your business.
Will our website traffic translate to actual reservations and orders?
Not automatically. We optimise for high-intent keywords and ensure your site converts visitors into email subscribers, reservation requests, or calls. That means optimising CTAs, adding schema markup for reservations, and building email capture on every page. Ranking is step one; conversion is step two.
