In return, this stellar reputation will help you rake in those referrals and expand your clientele. In short, one of the big secrets to getting your name out there is this: Do a really good job. And for that, you need to keep your creativity soaring.

An intriguing logo - centered in the middle of the page and aesthetically coordinated with the featured image - lures in viewers to explore more of the site, and makes a statement about the brand itself.

In place of a written menu, captivating photos serve as clever gateways to this photographer’s image categories.

This site packs in fun and energy like no other. Yet with so much emphasis on the candy-coated colors, this site makes the wise decision to keep each menu narrowed down to a minimal three choices. ‘Work,’ ‘Hey,’ and ‘Shop.’ Simple and to the point. We can get behind that.

A black and white color scheme is the website version of putting on a tux. Classy, bold, and always in style. Against the background, a powerful (and clever) CTA and the font color hover effects on the ‘Menu’ header pack a powerful punch.

A bold, retro business name not only matches the denim in the homepage photo, but its size and font color contrast with the black background means it will get etched in the memories of visitors.
