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.
Marseille restaurants & f&b is a different game.
We’ve run SEO here. We know what it takes.
Rank higher. Get found. Grow faster.
Marseille's 45,000+ SMBs are competing in a tourism-driven market where discovery happens on search. Restaurants here face a unique challenge: third-party platforms dominate visibility, while local search demand for delivery and catering queries goes untapped. Most Marseille F&B owners spend €2,200/month on digital marketing but lack a cohesive SEO strategy. The businesses winning right now own their search presence—not rent it from review platforms.
The 3 places Marseille 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 #8–#12 for 'restaurant Vieux-Port' and 'fine dining Marseille'. TripAdvisor and Michelin guides drove most discovery. Private catering inquiries were handled manually via phone; no way to track or nurture leads. Monthly digital spend was €2,400 on ads with poor ROI.
Rebuilt Google Business Profile with complete catering service details, photos, and service-area targeting for Marseille metro + tourist routes.

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 high-intent local searches (catering, delivery, your neighborhood). You've built an owned email list of repeat customers and catering clients, reducing reliance on paid ads and third-party platforms. Qualified leads and reservations increase 40–60%.
SEO Audit & Competitive Map
We analyze your current Google Business Profile, on-page SEO, technical health, and local authority. We map competitors dominating delivery, catering, and neighborhood-specific searches. For Marseille F&B, we assess your visibility across Vieux-Port, Euroméditerranée, and surrounding districts.
Profile & On-Page Optimization
We optimize your Google Business Profile for maximum visibility: complete all fields, add service categories (delivery, catering, dine-in), upload menu photos, and enable messaging. On-page, we optimize title tags, meta descriptions, and content for local intent keywords your customers actually search.
Content & Authority Building
We create SEO-optimized content targeting high-intent searches: catering menus, delivery area guides, seasonal specials, private dining options. We build local authority through Marseille business directory citations and relevant backlinks tied to tourism and food communities.
Email & Owned Channel Setup
We build a simple email capture strategy on your site (newsletter signup, loyalty offer, menu updates). This breaks your dependency on TripAdvisor and social platforms. Customers who call, book, or dine with you are added to an owned list you control.
Ongoing SEO & Reporting
Monthly optimization: we monitor rankings, respond to reviews, refresh content, add new catering/delivery offers to GBP, and expand keyword reach. You receive a dashboard showing traffic, leads, and ROI from search.
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.
| Omakaase | What we hear from most agencies | |
|---|---|---|
| Contracts | ✓ Month-to-month. Walk away any time. | 12-month minimum (standard) |
| Who's on your account | ✓ Senior strategist. Doesn't rotate. | Account manager, often junior, rotates 6–12 months |
| Reporting cadence | ✓ Weekly Loom video + live dashboard | Monthly PDF report |
| Attribution model | ✓ Revenue-connected from Day 1 | Rankings + traffic only |
| Cost transparency | ✓ You see where every dollar goes | Black-box retainer |

“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.”

“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.”

The questions founders actually ask us
Not the FAQ we wrote. The questions from real first calls.
How long until we rank on page 1?
Most of our Marseille restaurant clients see page 1 rankings for 3–5 high-intent keywords within 4–6 months. Delivery and catering keywords move faster (3–4 months) because there's less competition. High-volume, generic keywords ('restaurants Marseille') take 6–9 months. We track rankings monthly and show you progress.
Does SEO work for restaurants, or is it just ads?
SEO works incredibly well for restaurants—in fact, it's more cost-effective than ads long-term. Customers searching 'catering near me,' 'delivery Marseille,' or 'restaurant in [neighborhood]' have high intent. These are qualified leads. Most restaurants waste €2,000+/month on ads chasing the same audience; organic search captures them free after the initial 5–6 month investment.
What's included in your retainer?
Our retainer (€1,500–€3,500/month depending on scope) includes: Google Business Profile management, monthly on-page & content optimization, local citation building, 4–6 hours of strategy/optimization work, and detailed monthly reporting. You'll see monthly rank tracking, traffic estimates, and lead attribution. We can also add email automation or paid ads as add-ons.
Will this help us compete with TripAdvisor and Yelp?
Yes and no. You won't overtake their brand dominance, but you will own the organic search results for high-intent queries ('catering for 50,' 'delivery vegan,' 'private dining Vieux-Port'). More importantly, you'll build an owned email list so customers can reach you directly. This breaks the cycle of paying platforms commission or buying ads to recapture your own customers.
What if our restaurant is new or has no reviews yet?
Being new is actually an advantage for SEO if we act fast. We'll set up a complete, optimized Google Business Profile from day 1 (many restaurants miss this). We'll seed reviews through legitimate outreach to early customers. New restaurants typically rank faster because there's less competing history; we've seen new clients rank page 1 within 3 months for local keywords.
