A private chef's website that leads with the food

Chef Ivan Bobyr cooks private dinners and events across Miami and Fort Lauderdale. His old site opened with a grid of small photos. The new one leads with his food, explains each service with a price, and ends every page with one step: get your menu and price.

4

ways to reach the chef from every page: a short form, WhatsApp, phone or email.

6

dining formats, each with a starting price or a quote.

13

pages, each answering one question clients ask. The old site had six.

3

past events written up, including a dinner featured in Global Billionaire magazine.

Counted on the new build and on the current site at locusgourmet.com, October 26, 2026. The new site goes live after the chef's final review.

01

Before

The old Wix site opened with the brand name and a grid of small photos.

  • The home page headline was just the brand name, so it didn't say what the business does or where.
  • Two of its six pages had no content yet.
02

What we did

  • Wrote and designed 13 pages: the home page, four service pages, two area pages for Fort Lauderdale and Hollywood–Hallandale–Aventura, three event stories, an events index, the chef's page and privacy.
  • Put the food first, with the chef's dishes at the top of every page.
  • Gave all six dining formats a starting price or a quote, from $40 a guest for canapés.
  • Put the license, the insurance and the ServSafe certificate where clients look before they book.
  • Made one next step obvious on every page: get your menu and price, by form, WhatsApp, phone or email.
  • Set up Google Analytics, so every WhatsApp tap, call and form request will be counted.
03

After

The new site is built and in the chef's final review. When it goes live at locusgourmet.com, we'll add the first results here.
