3 Zomato Ranking Hacks Every Cloud Kitchen Must Know

  • By Subhash Sahni

Your growth begins where the algorithm ends.
Welcome to Restromark, your go-to expert in Cloud Kitchen Marketing and Zomato Marketing strategies.

If you’re running a restaurant or cloud kitchen and you’re not showing up in Zomato searches — you’re losing orders you never knew you could have had.

This post breaks down three simple but powerful Zomato hacks that can push your visibility and sales up without spending a fortune.


✅ 1. Use SEO-Optimized Dish Names

In Zomato Marketing, every word matters.

Instead of listing “Paneer Tikka,” try:
👉 “Smoky Paneer Tikka with Mint Chutney”
👉 “Tandoori Paneer Platter (Serves 1)”

These descriptions are searchable phrases that match what users type into Zomato’s search bar.

This is your Cloud Kitchen Marketing goldmine — because most customers search by dish, not brand.


✅ 2. Add Performance Tags like “Bestseller”

Zomato gives algorithmic preference to dishes tagged as:

  • Bestseller
  • Chef’s Special
  • New Arrival
  • Value Meal

These aren’t decorative — they influence user decisions and Zomato’s listing algorithm.

Pro tip: Use internal data (top 3 ordered items) to mark them as Bestseller. This boosts not just credibility but also CTR (click-through rate).


✅ 3. Boost Real User Photos to 50+

If you want to dominate Cloud Kitchen Marketing, you must create visual trust.

Listings with 50+ customer-uploaded photos have:

  • 2.3x higher engagement
  • 3x better listing scores
  • Up to 35% higher conversion to orders

💡 Add a QR code or note inside your delivery:
“Love the food? Upload a pic on Zomato & tag us — we feature our top fans!”

It’s UGC (User-Generated Content) for the win.
