Dining Presence specializes in providing websites for small restaurants. It is our focus, our passion, and we perform with excellence. We are technology experts, know the food service industry, and as a small business ourselves, appreciate the time and money constraints of every decision.

Our experience and high referral rates pay testament to the success of our clients. Prior to launching any websites, we carefully evaluated the cost / benefit ratio of numerous approaches resulting in technology investments to create our unique service (see our FAQ for more information). The bottom line for you is an effective website at a cost you can live with. This may be your lowest cost promotional expense.

How do we compare?

Dining Presence believes the goal of your website should be effectiveness, not cartoon-like dazzle. Your website should be professional, reliable, work on all browsers on all platforms, navigation should be obvious, information should be printable and your customers should not have to reconfigure their computers to access it.

Dining Presence also believes the most ineffective website is having none at all, so it must be affordable. Our competition typically charges many times our setup fee and their operating costs are often composed of multiple fees totaling several times the single, low and comprehensive Dining Presence service fee.

There is No Comparison!

Selecting a provider for your website can be a daunting, expensive and time consuming experience. We at Dining Presence have made every effort to see that it is easy, inexpensive, low-risk and fast. Please consider the following when comparing us to others:

• How much will it cost? You should know exactly how much it will cost to setup and operate. Remember to ask about additional fees such as business class hosting, monitoring, maintenance, backups, domain name renewals and updates. Dining Presence is only $495 to setup and $179 semiannually (under $1/day) to operate without any other fees or charges. (Additional service plans are available for those requiring more frequent updates.)
• What is your risk? You should not have to spend thousands of dollars with a provider you have never done business with. Your Dining Presence at-risk money is limited to the low $495 setup fee. If you are unsatisfied for any reason (you won't be, but theoretically speaking) you have no further obligation. In fact, you may discontinue service at any time without penalty. Additionally and unlike some others, we do not hold your domain name hostage - if you decide to leave our service we will promptly transfer your domain name rights to you.
• Is it a real website or simply an entry on some "directory", "association", "membership" or other listing service? Dining Presence provides you with your own website, accessible by your own domain name (e.g. http://YourRestaurant.com) and with multiple, custom information pages tailored to your restaurant.
• Is it offered as a bundle with other services? Some providers require the purchase of additional services such as listings, appointments, group advertising and so on. Dining Presence provides quality, unbundled websites without expensive additional services.
• What features are offered? Dining Presence delivers a comprehensive package of features to insure your website is effective and reliable. Our features page provides a complete summary.

The bottom line:   we are unique, easy to do business with and committed to providing you with a quality, effective and inexpensive website. You have waited long enough and finally found your website provider! Let's get started.
