F.A.Q.

What does your website offer?

Visitors to our website will find the most comprehensive restaurant guide around. Our restaurant listings include logistics such as hours, maps, and location, plus premium content including professional and user reviews, menus, wine lists, photo galleries, chef profiles, signature recipes, special offers, and more.

Do you have websites for other cities?

Of course! Dallas Restaurants.com is part of a growing global network of restaurant selection websites. Currently the websites in our network include:

Why is online presence so important?

"Online search is the primary tool most people rely on to do everyday research," says Ken Cassar, senior director of analytics at Nielsen/NetRatings. People in the U.S. use the Internet for more everyday research than any other medium, and increasingly so. Nielsen/NetRatins reported a 55 percent increase in online searches in the U.S. from December 2004 to December 2005, with the number of online searches soaring from 3.3 billion to nearly 5.1 billion. By comparison, the number of Internet users in the U.S. rose merely 3 percent (to 207 million people) during the same time period.

How do your websites rank on popular internet search engines?

We like to boast about this one! Nearly all of our websites consistently return as the top result on Google and other popular search engines for searches involving restaurants in that particular city. The exceptions are our newest sites, which during their infancy may not rank as high; however, all of our sites have proven to climb to the top of search engine rankings within months of us starting them or taking them over.

Our high search engine rankings mean that anyone looking for a restaurant in one of our cities will visit our website first! By listing on Dallas Restaurants.com, you ensure that when they find us they will find your restaurant too!

How can I get my restaurant listed on this website?

Good question! Dallas Restaurants.com is happy to list most of the unique and fine dining restaurants in and around Dallas. Please contact us or use our Submit Business form to get started, or view our Restaurant Listing Options for more information about restaurant listings on Dallas Restaurants.com.

My Restaurant is not in Dallas proper. Should it be listed on your website?

Absolutely! While our readers are mainly from or visiting Dallas, they often live or travel outside of the city center. If your restaurant is in a nearby town or city, you will gain a distinct advantage over neighboring restaurants by listing on Dallas Restaurants.com. Listing your restaurant will promote your restaurant to visitors in the Dallas area and around the world.

What happens after I sign my restaurant up?

Our professional staff will add your restaurant to the website within 24 hours. Once our team creates your initial profile, one of our writers will visit your restaurant to write the restaurant review and chef profile. We will upload your menu, wine list, and photos, and fill in the basic information about your restaurant. After the initial set up, we will provide you with an online account that will allow you to maintain your listing, including uploading or updating photos, menus, wine lists, special offers, job opportunities, event listings, and more. You will also be able to view and respond to customer reviews through your account, and see valuable feedback ratings from customers who have dined at your restaurant.

How much does it cost to list my restaurant on your site?

Our Restaurant Listings offer an unrivaled opportunity to showcase a detailed profile of your restaurant on a highly trafficked website, and with each listing we provide powerful account management software and personal support to help you get the most out of your listing. Unfortunately, we’re not able to offer this opportunity for free. However, we can assure you that our listing rates are lower than many other advertising opportunities, and for what you pay, you get a whole lot more than a traditional ad. Please view our Restaurant Listing Options and Rates to find out about our current listing rates and to learn more about what is included with every restaurant listing.

Why do restaurants have to pay to be listed?

Restaurants pay to be listed on our site for the same reasons that they pay to be listed in magazines and phone books, or to advertise in print, television, or on the radio. However, unlike advertising in phone books and magazines, or even on other websites, listing with Dallas Restaurants.com offers the dual advantages of targeted exposure and in-depth information. While you may pay hundreds for a tiny ad or two-line listing in traditional media, on Dallas Restaurants.com, your listing fee gets you over a dozen unique web pages, an integrated, searchable listing, tools to manage and maintain your listing, and, of course, highly visible web presence.

Why should I list my restaurant on your site?

Dallas Restaurants.com offers an unrivaled opportunity to reach a highly targeted demographic and to provide that demographic with a complete picture of what it is like to dine at your restaurant. Our website users are typical restaurant-goers living in or visiting the Dallas area, who come to our website specifically because they are looking for a restaurant to visit. Our registered users return to our website again and again because they know we provide in-depth information, have search and browse features that will help them find the exact restaurant they are looking for, and offer concierge services so users can make immediate restaurant reservations through our website. Listing on our site connects you to potential customers more directly and effectively than advertising in any other print or web publication, and it's less expensive too!

Does it work?

You bet! Our websites are visited by more than 250,000 readers every month! Since September 2002 we have made over 450,000 restaurant reservations and booked hundreds of group events for our partner restaurants.
