Franchises and multi-location

Websites for franchises and multi-location businesses.

Every location needs a page with its own hours, phone number and address, and the brand wants them all to look like one company. We build the site or take over yours, set up a page for each location, and give the people at each one a login that reaches their own page.

What we often hear

What usually goes wrong.

  • A location changed its hours months ago, and the website still sends customers to a locked door.
  • Each franchisee built their own site, and none of them look like the brand.
  • Opening a new location means waiting weeks for the agency to add one page.
  • A location closed, its page was deleted, and everyone who found it in search landed on an error.
What changes with Hosterr

What it looks like after.

  • Every location page is built from one template, so adding a location means filling in its details instead of building a page.
  • Location managers edit their own hours and specials, and the brand pages stay with the people who own them.
  • When a location closes or moves, its old address redirects to the location that replaces it or to the locator.
  • Large groups go on a Custom SLA with update windows set around your busy hours, and a smaller group with one site can start on Managed.
Why this fits

How we handle it.

One template for every location

Each location page comes from the same template with its own hours, map, phone number and booking link, so the pages match and stay easy to change.

Logins that fit the org chart

Head office, regional managers and each location get their own logins and roles, so people edit what they are responsible for.

Local search for each address

Each location page carries the structured data search engines read for an address and hours. The Managed SEO add-on at $50 a month per site keeps Search Console and Analytics running across all of them.

Changes rolled out once

A new logo, a price change or a menu update is made in one place and shows on every location page, after a review on staging.

Can each location update its own page?

Tell us how many locations you have and who edits what, and we'll write back with how we'd set up the site and the logins.

Plans

How much do you want us to do?

Organizations like yours usually go on a Custom SLA, with response times and the terms written into the contract. Smaller sites in the group can still use Managed.

Managed

$50 /mo

per site

You already have a site and you update it yourself. We look after everything underneath it.

What we take care of
  • Plugin, theme and WordPress updates snapshot saved first
  • Server, PHP and database updates planned and tested by us
  • Backups twice a day verified and kept off-site for 30 days
  • Security and monitoring scanning with a firewall and alerts
  • Same-day replies from the developer who does the work
  • Regular email updates what we did, in plain English
  • Free migration we move it for you
Get started

Changes to the site itself are quoted first at our standard $95/hr.

A new website included

Managed + Website

Add-ons for either plan

Common questions

What people ask us.

Yes, if you want them to. We set up a role that lets a franchisee change their own location's hours, photos and specials and nothing else, while head office keeps the brand pages and the template. If you'd rather every change came through head office, we set it up that way.

In most cases one site with a page for each location works better. It's easier to keep on brand, every location builds up the same domain in search, and there's one site to host and look after instead of dozens. A location that needs a lot of its own content can have a section of the main site.

One site with a page per location is one site, and a smaller group can run it on Managed at $50 a month. Larger groups, or brands with a separate site for each location, go on a Custom SLA, quoted after we've looked at the sites and the terms you need. A new build is quoted first at $95 an hour or a fixed price.

Send us one list, or have each location enter its own, and we set the dates so the hours change on the day and change back after. We can send you the same list for your Google Business Profiles, so what people see in search matches the page.
A note from Ryan

Who can change what

For a franchise or a group, I want to see who can log in at each location and what they can change before I look at anything else. If every manager has full admin access, one mistake can change every page on the site. Setting up roles that match your org chart is the first job I'd do.

Hosterr actually has a soul Hosterr is one of the few tech companies that I use that doesn't feel like it's trying to squeeze every last dollar out of you. It works well, easy to switch and the services are fair value for my. A great fit for my marketing agency digital environment
