1. A method for encouraging or incentivizing delivery orders, the method comprising:
monitoring, by a computing device, a plurality of delivery orders placed by users;
determining, based on the monitoring of the plurality of delivery orders, at least one trending drop-off location;
determining, by the computing device and based on the at least one trending drop-off location and at least one location of the users, a subset of users;
sending, to at least one computing device of the subset of users, an incentive or a suggestion to place a delivery order;
receiving, from a plurality of computing devices of the subset of users, a plurality of orders from the subset of users;
transmitting, by the computing device using a network interface device connected to a network, the plurality of orders to a plurality of interconnected restaurant location servers that uses a feedback loop to update an overall order queue used for selecting a restaurant location to prepare the plurality of orders; and
transmitting, from the computing device, tracking information of a delivery driver location for presentation on the plurality of computing devices of the subset of users.
