The sales optimized website was built for one purpose only, to help the restaurant sell online. Design and search engine optimization (SEO) were conceived to serve this purpose first.
Within the system, the restaurant can instantly generate a mobile-friendly website that’s highly optimized for sales and search engines. If the restaurant does not have a domain name for its website, then a domain can be registered through this service.
Here is a demo of a sales optimized website that was built using this online sales website builder: https://www.pronto-ny.com/

How to make a restaurant website in a few simple clicks
More details
1. If the restaurant already has its own hosting
The restaurant doesn't need separate hosting from someplace else. Having a super-fast responding website meant building it using the system's underlying hosting providers.
2. If the restaurant does not have its own domain, but needs/wants the sales optimized website
The restaurant can choose and register the domain name through the website service (if the domain is available).
This will be done after the service is enabled by selecting the “I don’t have a domain” option in the restaurant’s admin panel -> Publishing -> Sales optimized website section.
3. If the restaurant already has its own domain name and wants to connect it to the sales optimized website
This will be done after the service is enabled by selecting the “Yes, I have registered one” option in the restaurant’s admin panel -> Publishing -> Sales optimized website section.
Then, the restaurant will need to provide the registered domain name and account credentials in order for the system to perform the necessary nameserver changes to connect the domain to the website.
