Hosting tuned for your restaurant.

Yes. The shared hosting plan at $3.95/mo covers a marketing website, online menu, reservations link, contact form, and professional email for nearly all independent restaurants, cafes, food trucks, and small chains. Larger restaurant groups or sites running heavy WordPress queries (lots of locations, complex menus, integrated online ordering) can step up to WordPress Hosting at $9.95/mo. The underlying infrastructure is the same; pick the tier that fits the workload.

Yes. Modern online ordering platforms work via embedded order buttons, widgets, or direct links from your website to the ordering page. Ultra hosts your restaurant's main website (menu, story, location, contact) and the ordering platform handles the cart, checkout, payment, and POS integration. Supported integrations include Toast, Square Online, ChowNow, Slice, Olo, Order with Google, BentoBox, Tock To-Go, and direct WooCommerce-based ordering. Your website routes hungry visitors to the right place to actually place an order.

OpenTable, Resy, Tock, and SevenRooms all provide embeddable reservation widgets and reserve-button links that drop into any WordPress site (or any HTML site) hosted on Ultra. Visitors see your menu and ambiance on your hosted site, then book the table through the reservation platform's secure flow. The reservation platform handles the actual booking, customer database, deposits, and table management; your website is the marketing front door.

Yes. Restaurant traffic is overwhelmingly mobile (typically 70-85% of visits) and Ultra's stack is built for fast mobile delivery: SSD storage, LiteSpeed and Nginx caching, optimized PHP, free Cloudflare CDN integration that caches images and pages on edge servers near your customers, and the option of WP Rocket or LiteSpeed Cache for WordPress sites. Most restaurant sites on Ultra deliver under 2-second mobile page loads, which directly improves conversion to reservations and orders.

Your website does a lot of the heavy lifting for restaurant local SEO. Ultra hosts the site with proper LocalBusiness schema markup, fast page loads (a Google ranking signal), and SSL for trust. The hosting layer covers the foundation; the ongoing SEO work (Google Business Profile updates, review responses, menu schema, location pages for chains) is content work you or your agency does on top. We have customers who handle their own GBP and customers who hire local SEO agencies; either way the website lives on Ultra.

Yes. Every shared hosting plan includes unlimited email accounts at your restaurant's domain ([email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], etc.). Email accounts are managed via cPanel and accessible via webmail, IMAP, POP3, or SMTP from any device. SPF, DKIM, and DMARC are configured for deliverability so customer inquiries reach the right inbox reliably.

Yes. Free website migration is included with any annual or longer plan. Our migration team handles cPanel-to-cPanel transfers, WordPress sites, database moves, image libraries, and email account migration. Most restaurant websites move within 24-48 hours with no downtime, and we coordinate the DNS cutover so existing reservation links, ordering buttons, and email continue working through the transition. Especially important if your site is the source of reservation traffic that you cannot afford to interrupt.

WordPress is the most popular foundation for restaurant websites because the plugin ecosystem covers everything a restaurant needs (menus, reservations widgets, photo galleries, gift card sales, event calendars, blog for marketing). But Ultra hosts any web platform: static HTML/CSS sites, Squarespace exports, Wix exports, custom-built sites, and proprietary website builders. If you have a designer who built you a static site or you use a restaurant-specific site builder, those work on Ultra too. WordPress is just the path of least resistance for most independents.

Ultra guarantees 99.9% uptime backed by RAID-protected storage, UPS-backed power, redundant Cisco networking, and on-site staff. Restaurant sites run on the same Dell PowerEdge hardware that powers our entire owned-infrastructure fleet.

Yes. Restaurant hosting plans include a 45-day money-back guarantee. Request a refund through the client area within 45 days of signup for a full refund on the hosting service. Domain registration fees are non-refundable since they're paid to the registry on your behalf.
