Run an agency long enough and you stop counting client websites one at a time. You think in batches. The twelve Joomla sites on retainer, the six you built last year and still maintain, the three you inherited from a developer who disappeared. Every one of them needs the same boring backend work, and that work is where your margin quietly bleeds out.

You finished the shoot, you spent an evening culling and editing, and now comes the part nobody enjoys. Getting the selection to the client. So you upload everything to Pixieset or Pic-Time or ShootProof, send a link, and quietly accept that every month from now on you pay a fee to host photos you took, on a domain that is not yours.

A restaurant website is one of the friendlier briefs that lands on your desk. The client has a clear identity, there are usually decent photos to work with, and the sitemap is short. You can have something good looking live within a week.
