THE WEBSITE YOU HAVE NOW
Your website was built once. Your hotel has changed every month since.
Guests check your website before they book, even when they found you somewhere else. An out-of-date page sends them back to the OTA.
Last year’s rates are still up
The rates page, the promo banner and the breakfast hours are out of date. Guests notice, and the front desk explains it again.
Every change waits for someone
The person who built the site has moved on, or the agency replies next week. A one-line fix takes a month.
It reads like a brochure
Nice photos, but no answers to the questions guests really ask, and no clear way to book.
Guests on phones give up
Slow pages, small text and a booking form that breaks on a phone send guests back to the OTA app.
Our team builds a website that answers, books and keeps up with your hotel, and we keep it that way.
WHAT YOUR PAGES SHOULD ANSWER
The questions a hotel website has to answer.
Every page should answer them. When a guest still asks, ely answers from the same approved details, or passes the question to your team.
On the rooms page · 9:12 pm
“Which rooms are quieter, garden side or pool side?”
The Garden Rooms face the back courtyard and are the quietest. Pool Rooms open onto the pool deck, which is busy until 9 pm.

On the location page · 2:40 pm
“How do we get to you from the port?”
The hotel is about ten minutes from the port by tricycle or taxi. The map and directions are on the location page.
ely answersApproved location details
On the policies page · 8:05 pm
“Can we bring our dog?”
Small dogs are welcome in two Garden Rooms for a cleaning fee. Please mention your dog when you book.
ely answersApproved pet policy
Before arrival · 6:50 pm
“Is there a lift? My mother uses a wheelchair.”
There is no lift, but three ground-floor rooms have step-free access. I have passed your dates to reception so they can hold one for you.
Passed to your teamReception holds the accessible room
On the events page · 11:30 am
“Can we rent the function room for a 60th birthday?”
The function room seats up to 80. I have passed your date and guest count to our events team, and they will send a quote.

WHAT YOUR WEBSITE DOES
Four jobs your website does every day.
It gets found, it answers, it takes the booking, and it keeps up with your hotel. Our team builds it for all four.
01 / Gets found
Pages written in the words guests search.
Guests search “hotel near Dumaguete port” or “dive resort with rinse tank”. Our team writes a page for each thing guests look for, keeps your Google profile in step with the website, and checks each month how you show up on Google and in AI answers.
WHAT OUR TEAM DOES
- A page for each room, the location and each thing guests ask about
- Titles, photos and details AI assistants can read
- Search results and AI answers checked each month
Guests find a page that answers their search, on your website.
Website and Visibility are in the pilot rollout.
- Your Hotel Dumaguete
- A boulevard hotel
- A pension house
Illustrative search. Our team improves your pages and listing; Google decides the ranking.
A guest asks: Good hotel in Dumaguete for a diving trip?
The assistant answers: Your Hotel Dumaguete suits divers who want a simple base near the port:
- A rinse station and gear lockers
- About ten minutes from the port
- Breakfast from 6 am for early dives
Rooms and rates are on the hotel’s own website.

Illustrative AI answer, not a real service. No AI service guarantees a mention.
02 / Answers
A chat on every page that knows your hotel.
ely answers on your website from the details you approve, in the guest’s language — 58+ languages supported. Requests that need a person go to your team with the details collected.
WHAT OUR TEAM DOES
- Your rooms, facilities and policies added, then approved by you
- Answers tested before guests see them
- Conversations read and wrong answers fixed
Guests get an answer instead of a contact form.
Website chat is in the pilot rollout. Messenger, Viber and WhatsApp come next.

BEFORE YOU START
What hotels ask about their website.
Do we own the website?
Yes. It is yours. If you ever leave, the website goes with you.
How do we ask for a change?
Tell our team what changed. We update the page and ely’s answers, and you check before it goes live. Changing the website by messaging ely directly is upcoming.
Is the booking page part of the website?
Yes. ely’s booking engine is included in every package and built into your website. If you prefer the booking page you already use, we link to it instead.
Who writes the pages?
Our team writes them from the details you approve and the words guests search for. Nothing goes live until you have checked it.
Will the new website show up on Google?
Our team builds each page for the searches guests make and checks each month how your hotel shows up. Google decides the ranking; we fix what is in our control.
How much does it cost?
It depends on your hotel and what you need first. Join the waitlist and we will give you a price on the call.
