Texans who love Mexican restaurants have a new resource for experiencing the best Mexican cuisine in the DFW (Dallas Ft. Worth), Austin, Houston and San Antonio Metros.
JoseGoes.com is a great example of how niche sites can offer great value to consumers through geo-targeted marketing while simultaneously creating exceptional opportunities for businesses.
While this site focuses on Mexican restaurants in Texas, the concept of geo-marketing through niche sites is applicable to every type of business and every location. JoseGoes.com serves as an excellent role model for what to look for in a geo-local site and the first of more to come from those sharp folks at Rev Up Media Promotions who are also behind MyLocalLookup and BeyondTheTV.
I encourage every business to seek out and support these types of geo-targeted sites and particularly the projects Rev Up Media Promotions develops. They have a huge advantage due to their affiliation with television stations in each major metro area as I explained in the BeyondTheTV link above. If you develop Web properties, consider creating your own unique combination of niche and geographic location.
The most well established and promoted site for each metro area will grow massively in importance to businesses. It is imperative that a general metro site collaborate with these types of niche metro sites because that is how they will generate the strongest growth and visibility.

Welcome to GrowMap and thank you for your comment. I know you, also, have great cooking videos. Perhaps you and Jose Goes would benefit from collaborating.

My favorite is, Baby Acapulco Mexican Restaurants in Austin, TX – also known as Baby A’s. There are five separate Baby Acapulco locations scattered throughout Austin, three of which are known for their bright, neon-painted exteriors. The menu here offers plenty of choices and both the salsa and the food are excellent!

Hello Mustana and welcome,
Thank you for the recommendation. Although I rarely eat out or travel into Austin any more if I see one I’ll try it. They could be the type of restaurants that really benefit from Jose Goes. They are regional but have five locations so that would multiple the effectiveness of being featured there.

Seems like the Joes site is really doing something right. They will probably become even more successful than they are now, and expand to other areas.
Thinking of doing the same thing for my website. What a coincidence that we’re both in the food industry! I now see the benefits of “localizing” a website as opposed to just making a general one.
Yay, more people are realizing how important advertising locally is! Very useful especially for brick and mortar stores like this Texas Mexican Restaurant. I personally have an online business and marketing locally has done wonders for my profits.
Very impressive post. I can appreciate the amount of effort that went into it. You have a very good feel for getting the right information out to the people. I am also very impressed with the website as a whole. Keep up the good work
Wow, quite the site/tool. Just gotta wait for a bunch of these restaurants to realize that this type of advertising is effective!

We have a similar site in Ottawa, called ottawakiosk.com but I must say theses sites look much nicer.

Motivational information for the readers who want to develop their business.
Jose Goes is doing an excellent work specially for the consumers.
Thanks for this inspirational post. Keep posting such useful article.
CommentLuv is amazing. I use it on all of my blogs and it really does increase the amount of REAL comments from readers. I like the concept of top commentator, it makes more exciting or engaging to participate in the comment section of blogs.
It seems like the restaurant is catchy… I have never tried it but I’d like to. It’s likely to have authentic mexican recipes and if they are doing them right, they will succeed really great. Some restaurants claim to have original mexican food… but when you compare it with authentic mexican’s you find out that it’s only a “false copy” of mexican cuisine. I hope this restaurant makes original mexican food.

I like the site you have provide lots of cooking tips and videos, which will tell step by step method for cooking.
Your post is very interesting. Glad for some of the tips. I think they have been informative. Its great to have a site with information instead of a bunch of useless stuff. Teaching others is a giving tool that can be very rewarding. Regards, Julie
I agree with July very interesting list, last year when I was doing email marketing campaigns I learned how creating a mailing list can easily improve your business. Thanks for sharing the bullet lists of benefits for both consumer and business

JoseGoes is a great site. They should set up cooking classes, teach about tequila and different margarita recipes, etc. Connect that with regional sites and TV.
I’d hit the real estate community. Sites like this are great for new residents into a region.
