Six questions every owner asks me
These are the questions that come up in almost every first conversation. The answers are the ones I give in that conversation, with the numbers attached.
- Pricing
What a website costs in Thailand, and what you are paying for
Shopify's Thai cost guide puts a designed website at 15,000 to 300,000 baht. For the same three pages, the difference is almost never the design.
- Google Maps
Why your restaurant does not show up in Google Maps
Almost always the profile, almost never the website. And the fields that matter are not the ones owners expect.
- QR ordering
How guests order by QR code, and what PromptPay has to do with it
The scan is the easy part. The question that decides whether it works is who carries the payment fee.
- LINE
LINE Official Account or a website, and what each one is actually for
Almost every Thai business has LINE. Far fewer have somewhere for a stranger to land.
- PDPA
PDPA and your own website, what a small business really needs
The law has been fully in force since June 2022. When researchers checked 384 Thai SME websites shortly before that, more than half collected personal data without any privacy notice.
- Reviews
How a business in Chiang Mai gets Google reviews
The slowest lever in local search, and the one that decides whether a stranger picks you or the shop next door.
