Your first website.
$250 once.
Thanda Garam currently lives on Instagram and delivery apps. Below is the plain-English version of what changes when you have your own website.
Your website today vs. what it could be.
We built this preview from everything already on your site, reorganized, redesigned, and priced to own outright.
- You do not have a website
Customers searching "chaat London Ontario" or "pani puri Highbury" find a Google Maps card and a few delivery-app listings. There is no website to click into. Every brand-building click is going to the platforms, not to you.
- Delivery apps take 25 to 30 percent of every order
Uber Eats, DoorDash, SkipTheDishes all charge similar commissions. A customer who orders direct through your own site costs you near zero. A customer who orders through an app costs you a quarter of the bill, every time, forever.
- Instagram is not searchable
Instagram is great for repeat customers who follow you. But it does not show up in Google when someone searches your business name or your menu items. New customers do not find you that way.
- No control over your brand
On delivery apps, you sit next to fast-food chains. Your photos are cropped to their template. The font is theirs. The menu structure is theirs. None of the personality of "thanda garam" comes through.
- You don't have a website yet
When someone searches for your business on their phone, they hit dead air. A good chunk of new customers never call because they couldn't check you out online first.
- Visitors see a “Not Secure” warning
Chrome and Safari flag your website with a scary warning because it doesn't have a little lock icon. Most people hit back before they read a single thing.
- The site doesn't work on phones
Text is tiny. Buttons don't fit. Images overflow. About 7 in 10 people looking for a local business in London are on a phone, and most of them leave immediately.
- The design looks out of date
Customers decide whether to trust a business in under 5 seconds, and they use the website to do it. A dated look makes an excellent business look like it's not paying attention.
- A real website at a real domain
We register the domain (thandagaram.ca or similar) and put your menu, photos, address, and phone behind it. Live in twenty-four hours.
- Direct online ordering, no app commission
We can wire your homepage to a real ordering tool that costs a flat fee, not 25 percent of every order. Saves money on every transaction from day one.
- Your own brand, your own voice
The hot/cold split, the bilingual name, the chaat aesthetic, all front and centre on your homepage. Not buried in a delivery app's template.
- A site that actually looks like a real business
Modern design that matches how your business actually feels, not a clicked-together template that looks like everyone else's.
- Works perfectly on phones
Most people looking for you are on a phone. This site is built for phones first, then tablets, then laptops, in that order.
- Everything you already have, better organized
Your hours, your services, your photos, your prices, your booking link, your menu, all of it, in one clean place that people can actually find.
- Fast, secure, and runs itself
Hosted on Cloudflare, the same network that powers Shopify and Discord. Always online, always secure, always fast. No plugins to update.
- You own it. Pay once. Forever.
$250 one time. No monthly fees for hosting. No subscription. No lock-in. The site is yours to keep, forever.

The monthly fees you'd be paying elsewhere.
