What is askotter?
askotter is a managed website and marketing service for owner-operated businesses in the United States. askotter builds the site on the owner's own domain, runs the SEO and the AI search visibility, and takes change requests by text message, with a person reviewing every change before it publishes. Plans are $99/mo self-managed and $600/mo managed.
Built for the owner who is the service.
Our customers do the work themselves. A hygienist gets twenty minutes between patients and it goes to notes.
Why it runs from your phoneShow less
Nobody who has been under a car since seven is opening a website builder that evening. So the marketing waits for Sunday, and most Sundays it keeps waiting. askotter is built to run from the phone that is already in your pocket.
“Three bays open tomorrow. Send our customers something.”
Whiskers writes the offer, pulls the customers who have not been in for a while, and texts you the draft with the size of the list. Reply YES and it is out within minutes.
“New patient exam is $89 now.”
Every page carrying the old number gets rewritten. One preview link comes back, at an address only you can open, before any of it is public.
“We do Invisalign now.”
A page gets written for it, with the questions people ask about it answered on the page. It goes live on your domain once you say so.
“Calls from your contact page are down 30% since the form changed.”
That one starts on our side. The site reads your Search Console and GA4, and when a page stops earning what it used to, the text arrives with the fix already drafted.
Text Whiskers to get it done.
The website, the SEO, the promotions and the ad budgets all move through one text thread. You answer in your own words, and a person reviews every change before your customers see it.
- Website
- Prices, opening hours, a service you just added, a whole new page.
- SEO
- The monthly work, and the fix when a page that used to earn calls starts slipping.
- Promotions
- An offer written and sent to your customer list, put on your homepage and pushed to your Google profile.
- Paid ads
- Google and Meta budgets, and a straight answer on what each one booked.
Screen recordings of the product. The clinic, the garage, the domain and every figure in them are invented, so they show you an interface and never a client result. Nothing on your site changes without your reply, and every change can be undone.
We build the site. Then it keeps getting better.
Give us the domain you already own, or describe the business in plain English, and the site is written and hosted in days. After that it reads your Google Analytics and Search Console every month. When a page starts losing calls, the fix arrives as a text with the reason attached, and nothing reaches a visitor until you reply YES.
Six jobs, one system.
The site goes live, then it keeps working. It finds what underperforms and fixes it.
The other four jobsShow less
It runs your Google and Meta budgets against the same numbers the SEO reads, and works on getting you named when someone asks an AI who to call.
It writes the promotion, sends the email campaign, answers the enquiries that come back, and when you want to know where any of it stands, you text it.
Clean, fast, mobile-optimized, on your own domain. Yours to keep after 6 months on a managed plan.
Keyword research, on-page work, technical fixes and content. New work ships every month.
Campaigns built and tuned against the same analytics the SEO reads, with the landing pages behind them written to match. You keep the ad accounts and pay Google and Meta directly. An add-on to either plan, from $200/mo.
An agent works on getting your business named when someone asks ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google's AI Overview who to call. Fact reconciliation, extractable answers, schema, llms.txt, and a monthly report of which prompts returned you. Included in every plan.
Ship the recommendations in one click, or hand them to our team. We publish the change for you.
Rankings, traffic, and a timestamped log of every decision and every change that shipped. Included with every plan.
Ads tuned by the numbers Google cannot see.
Google Ads knows what a click cost. It does not know your hours, which page the click landed on, or whether anyone booked. Whiskers reads all four together every morning and tunes the account from what they say.
Which changes wait for your yesShow less
You write the rules in plain words. A search term that spends and never books gets cut on its own. Ads pause on the days you are closed. Anything that moves money, a budget shift, a new bid, a new campaign, is a text with the maths in it, and it waits for your yes. Every change lands in the same log as the website work, with the number it moved beside it. You keep the ad account and pay Google and Meta directly.
An illustration of the product, rebuilt in HTML for this page. The clinic, the domain, the phone number and every figure in it are invented. The rules that decide what is automatic and what asks first are set by you, in plain words, and can be changed by text. Nothing changes on your site without your yes, and every change can be undone.
Searching turned into asking, and an AI answer names about three businesses.
A search page has room for ten businesses. An AI answer names two or three, and there is no page two. One agent works on that surface alone.
How it gets you namedShow less
It runs the prompts your customers type, records who got named instead of you, and rewrites your pages so a sentence can be lifted and attributed. It also corrects the facts the models have wrong about your business. A person approves every change.
Average of each client's own percentage change, measured in that client's Google Analytics over 180 days. Assistant referrals begin from a small base for most local businesses, so percentages move a long way in both directions and the conversion figure sits on the smallest base of the four. Results vary widely by client. An average is not a promise. The method, and what this cannot do →
Some of the successes from our clients.
Full website rebuild, technical SEO, content optimization and continuous monitoring. Every figure below is that client's own, measured in their own Search Console.

Averages above: each client’s own Google Search Console, last 90 days vs. prior 90. Per-client click value in the cards: SpyFu organic estimates, June 2026. Full website rebuild + SEO optimization included.
What that adds up to.
Average of each client's own percentage change, measured in that client's Google Search Console over last 90 days vs. prior 90. Newer clients that launched inside the window are excluded from the averages, having no prior period to measure against. Results vary widely by client and not every client grew over this window. The average describes the group, and we will show you your own numbers before you sign anything. The cohort size, the median and the grew-against-declined counts are published in full.
