What people in Melbourne look for

Locals search by suburb or compass point, and phrases like the inner north, the south-east or the west are how many describe where they live. Victorian terraces and weatherboards fill the inner suburbs, brick veneer runs through the middle ring, and new estates and townhouses cover the fringes.

Apartment blocks around Melbourne mean many people don't have much space at home, so a cafe is a second living room. Say if you take laptops, how long people can sit and whether you do coffee for the whole block. Students around Melbourne use cafes to study and meet. Say whether there's wifi and power points, how late you stay open and whether a table is fine for a couple of hours with a coffee. New estates around Melbourne are short of places to meet, so a cafe becomes the neighbourhood's front room. Show the families and the pram brigade, say you welcome them and mention play space if you've got any. Melbourne is big enough that people look for a cafe near where they already are. Put your suburb and the nearest landmark in the first line, and say whether people from Dandenong or Preston will find parking easily.

Name the places you really work, the way people type them: Dandenong, Werribee and Craigieburn, not just Melbourne.

Everything a site for cafes needs

The rules that shape the words

Best coffee and similar claims on the site need a named source and a year, or they can mislead.

Dairy free, vegan and gluten free are claims that depend on how your kitchen works, so use them only for items you can keep apart, and invite questions about allergens.

Cafes in Melbourne: questions

Isn't Instagram enough for a cafe?
It shows the mood, but it's a poor place for hours, menu and address, and people can't search inside it. A website holds the dependable details and backs up your Google listing, so a visitor who clicks through finds the same answers everywhere.
What's the most useful thing to put on the home page?
Today's opening hours. Most people looking up a cafe want to know if they can walk in now. Put them at the top, change them on public holidays and make sure the Google listing says exactly the same.
How can a cafe in Melbourne stand out when there are so many?
Be specific and show your face. Use photos from real jobs in places like Northcote, Camberwell or Williamstown, and write about the streets you work in. Generic copy blends in across a big city, while local detail reads as someone who actually knows the area.
