How much does Zorva Labs cost?

$57 per month, all-in. That includes the custom website build (no setup fee), domain registration with DNS management, Zorva Edge hosting, SSL, daily backups, uptime monitoring, and monthly content changes. Larger custom work is billed at $33/hour, always quoted upfront.

Does Zorva Labs handle SEO and AI search optimization?

Yes — every site we build comes with on-page SEO and AI search optimization (AIO, AEO, GEO) baked in. That covers schema markup, llms.txt, structured FAQs, conversational headings, and the entity graph that ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity rely on. Zorva Grow adds high-authority backlinks as a $257/month add-on.

Is the website really free?

Yes. We design and build your custom 3-page website at no upfront cost — it's bundled into the $57/month plan. As long as you stay subscribed, your site is live and maintained.

How long does it take to launch a website?

Most websites are live within 7 days. We request your content on day 1, send a preview by day 4, and launch after your approval.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes — no contracts, cancel from your Stripe portal anytime. We do ask for a 90-day minimum after launch to cover the initial build cost.

Why not just use Wix, Squarespace, or WordPress?

Those builders look cheap but cost more once you add apps, plugins, hosting, and your own time to build. Wix Business with apps runs $72/mo. WordPress with hosting and plugins runs $60/mo plus your time. And the sites are template-driven, hard to customize, and don't get optimized for AI search engines like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Perplexity. Plus, you have to build it yourself or pay a developer.

What kind of website changes are included?

Text edits, photo swaps, hours and price updates, contact info changes, small layout tweaks, and any change under 15 minutes — all included. Larger projects like new pages, redesigns, or integrations are quoted at $33/hour.

Where is Zorva Labs based?

Zorva Labs is based in Nashville, Tennessee. We serve small businesses across the United States and Canada.

Yes. You own your domain, the source code, the design, your logo, your content, and your brand. If you ever leave Zorva Labs, you take everything with you intact — no rebuild required. Unlike Wix, Squarespace, or most agencies, there's no vendor lock-in.

Catering display at corporate event — catering SEO concept

TL;DR

Catering SEO is high-LTV, long-decision-cycle event-driven business. Corporate (recurring) + wedding (high-margin one-time) are the two key markets. The 2026 winning stack: GBP with 80+ event/food photos, FoodEstablishment + EventVenue schema, event-type landing pages (wedding, corporate, drop-off, full-service), and llms.txt for AI citations.

Catering SEO drives \$3,000–\$50,000+ event bookings. The buyer journey is long (4 weeks to 18 months for weddings) and almost entirely search-driven.

Catering search arenas

Wedding catering — "wedding caterer [city]." Highest margin per event.
Corporate catering — recurring business meals, lunch programs. Highest LTV.
