I never knew of these internet score cards before my business partner told me about them.  I was always just concerned about how many people visited me, and did business with me.  For awhile I tracked my visitors these with the popular (among newbies) the free counters available for quick download and install.  Soon I was introduced to something called AWStats. . . a free .pl script that tracks your visitors.  And then soon after the google analytics javascript that is easily installable on your webpage.

So I soon became one of those crazy website owners that keep looking at those damned Alexa and Google page rank scores.  I felt like a kid that just finished a grade in school waiting patiently for my report card to arrive in the mail.  But these internet report cards so much more unpredictable.  Even though you know you think you’ve beed doing quite well (or bad), you hope for a grade that you think you should (or want to) get.  The problem with these, practically universal, internet health scores is that they many times do not match (good or bad) of what you have done with your website since the previous critique.

I’m at the point to stop watching these scores.  What do they really mean to me and my business anyway?  Maybe it is because my profits do not rely completely on the internet.  Even though my business is completely related to the internet, it does not revolve around it.  My sales are in the field.  My marketing and advertising are in fact reliant on the field.  Those that find me on the internet are in fact, just a bonus.

So, screw these two (or three if you count compete.com) scores I keep watching in my spare (or not so spare) time.  As long as I keep growing, Google and Alexa have nothing on me!  It still strikes me as rediculous that the page rank on this stupid blog is a “4″, while my bread and butter webpage is still a “3″ (alexa undeterminable) . . .even though the profit and visitor count is way on the side of GimmeGrub.com.

But seriously, lets hope that this blog will attract all of those internet newbies will push up my internet scores and traffic because I’ve mentioned those special keywords “Alexa” and “Google Page Rank” . . .

 1. No more busy signals/being put on hold

I don’t know about you, but I hate it when I’m calling my favorite restaruant (especially pizza places!) and I get put on hold, or the phone is busy.  I’m HUNGRY here guys!  I already have to wait for an hour for my pie to get to me, and now you want to prolong that by putting me on hold?  Unless you still have dial-up, you wont ever get a busy signal or be put on hold.

2.  View the full restaurant menu while ordering

Guess what?  You can clear out that old menu stash you have laying around . . .most with old prices.  Ordering online allows you to always see the full current menu while you order.  It even lets you customize your order.  All the time we get “Wow, I didn’t even know I got a choice of bread” or “You mean I can take the onions off of that” from online ordering customers.  And you can even get special prices for adding on items while ordering.

3. One Click Reordering

So, I have a few items that I really like to eat from certain restaurants, and I just have to have them every few weeks.  Ordering online allows me to re-order anything from the past with one click! Well, really it’s 3.  But imagine having to make up the same order every time.  We’re here to save time for you folks!

4. Discounts!

Many of our restaurant clients really prefer you to place your order online.  Here’s a secret: They don’t have to answer phones anymore.  Becuase of this, they will often offer a discount of 10-15% off of your entire order!  So let me get this straight.  Not only is it easier for you to order online, you also save money this way.  WOW!

5. Find new restaurants

So, you may have found out about online ordering from your favorite restaurant.  If you ever decide to click on the GimmeGrub.com icon, you will see many more restaurants in your area that offer you online ordering.  What a great way to try a new place.  We never set up bad restaurants with online ordering, so you can rest assured you will get a quality meal.

 So, those are five reasons why to order online, in no particular order.  There many more, but those are my favorites.  If you have any other good reasons, be sure to respond.
