Think of Information Architecture as the blueprint for your website. Just as an architect decides where the walls, stairs, and doors go in a house to make it livable, an efficient website designer uses IA to organise and label content so users can find what they need without getting lost.
At its core, IA is about structure and clarity. It transforms a pile of raw data and features into a logical system. It focuses on three main pillars:
Navigation: How users move through the site (menus, breadcrumbs, and links).
Hierarchy: How information is ranked (what is a primary category vs. a sub-category).
Labeling: Ensuring names for pages and buttons are intuitive and consistent.
Without solid IA, even the most beautiful website becomes a “digital junk drawer.” Users feel overwhelmed by choices or frustrated by “dead ends.” By using information architcture appropriately, designers ensure the path from a user’s initial question to their final answer is as short and logical as possible.
In short: IA is the skeleton; UI is the skin. You need the bones to be in the right place before you can make the body look good.

What our clients have to say...
Scott at Eseyo is the web guy for my business. Websites, the internet and emails can be very complex subjects and Scott is able to explain them all very clearly. He just does it all. I couldn’t run my business the way I do without Scott.
Scott rocks! He has designed a really good website for me and was so patient with all my changes that I wanted to have through the process. Really good experience and would strongly recommend!
My business has increased since Scott redesigned my website. I highly recommend him
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.
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.
Fantastic service , advise and professional application to all the work carried out. Scott has a particular quality for detail and ideas highly recommend Eseyo for any size business user.

Scott and his team are very knowledgeable and creative. We have just had some additions added to our website that Scott suggested and it has helped our business enormously. I wouldn’t hesitate on recommending Eseyo to any of my clients.
Highly recommended. The service they provide is excellent. An extremely helpful, friendly and knowledgeable team who I couldn’t do without!
Scott carried out a “quick” SEO audit on our website, which turned out to be far more detailed than we were expecting. The insights have been enlightening, and most of the recommended changes have been very straightforward to implement. Thanks for helping us out — we look forward to working together in more detail in 2027.
