Web design for
caterers in North York.
This page is the North York slice of a survey of 47 catering companies — every listing on Google Maps, every website opened by hand. 0 of the 41 sites do not work on a phone.
Those 47 listings were checked one at a time. 4 of the 41 sites came through with nothing wrong; the rest had at least one of the problems above. (North York is part of Toronto — we count the businesses that give North York as their address.)
What they are built on
5 platforms,
no clear winner.
We identified 5 different platforms behind the 41 sites in North York. WordPress accounts for 15 of them. 2 sit on a free or entry-level builder — a fair reading of how much the business has put into being found.
What actually breaks
No analytics — nobody is measuring what the site does
on 22 of them.
Sorted by how often it appears, the fault list for caterers in North York starts with no analytics — nobody is measuring what the site does (22 sites) and no structured data for google to read (14). Both are cheap to fix and neither requires rebuilding anything.
We would start at the bottom of that list, not the top — page title does not name the city they work in affects fewer sites here (14), which means fixing it puts you ahead of the 27 that already have it right only if the basics are done too.
Who you are up against

Before you decide anything
Find out whether
you have a problem.
Most people asking about a rebuild do not need one. The free check opens your site, looks at how it behaves on a phone, whether it is secure and how old the page is, and tells you which of those apply to you.
Think yours needs
rebuilding?
Send us the address and what you do. We will look at what is there and tell you whether a rebuild is worth the money, or whether the problem is somewhere else entirely.
