Websites that start with a conversation, not a template

Tell me about your business for an hour. That recorded conversation becomes a site plan, a first design and real website copy written for the customers you want. AI does the heavy lifting, and 25 years of web design and SEO experience decide where it goes. You approve every page before it goes live, and I’ll show you how to update it yourself.

From our first interview to the finished website took just three weeks. The result is far better than I could have imagined.

Eseyo created our website – Brentwood Lofts – and our business is booming! In fact we’ve just completed our highest quarter since establishing, back in 1985. Whilst a great deal of our work comes from referrals, owing to the fact that we have been trading for so long, we’re convinced the upturn is due to the success of our website. Well done and thanks to Scott and his team.

We’re on about the 5th incarnation of our website, we’ve wasted thousands! But Scott was the first guy we’ve dealt with who listened and got it right. Happy to recommend.

Be found on Google, and in AI answers

Being found online now has two halves. Your customers still search Google, but more of them ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Copilot who to call. If an assistant can’t reach your website, can’t read it or gets your facts wrong, you’re not in the answer. A standard SEO report won’t tell you that.

I look after both halves. On the search side, that’s keywords, page titles, content and technical health, so you rank. On the AI side, it’s crawler access, structured data and consistent facts, so assistants can find you and describe you correctly. No ranking promises and no tricks: published standards, live ranking data and reports in plain English.

Not sure where you stand? Start with the audit.

Scott’s knowledge and expertise is first class. We work very closely with the Eseyo team on a range of digital projects and we find the responsive and collaborative work ethic very refreshing.

DotScott is a regular partner of Blue Serif, and he assisted us as part of our team training on how we can use AI systems in our business. His knowledge and advice was very useful and saved us lots of time investigating this ourselves.

Blue Serif · AI workshops client

Scott helped us to create a new AI toolkit allowing us to create detailed reporting on our business which we would have otherwise never had the time or budget to complete. We received much more than we’d expected from our session, and saw how easy it was to ask for “just one more thing” to get a set of tools that will transform our business management.

Essex Business Forum · AI skills client

Scott helped us with a complex website management task that had already taken us almost a month to complete and we were only about 50% of the way through. He created a safe staging version of our website and then completed the rest of the process within 4 hours, saving us so much time and cost. We’re now exploring other ways that DotScott can help us to improve our processes and make things more efficient.

about

You'll deal with me, not an account manager

I’m Scott Griffiths. I’ve been building websites for small businesses since 2000, ran eseyo from 2010, and became DotScott when AI changed how that work gets done. I plan every site, write every audit and run every workshop myself, from Brentwood, Essex. If you call, you get me.
