Eye hospitals · Pay per click advertising

Pay for the cataract and retina searches, and block the ones looking for eye drops.

Pay-per-click (PPC) advertising for an eye hospital means paying Google to show the hospital when someone searches for a surgery or a specialist, and paying only when they click. GullySales points the money at the department with free theatre or clinic slots and counts the calls and bookings each search brings.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What pay per click advertising means

Pay per click advertising (PPC) is paying a fee each time someone clicks your advert on Google or another platform. It puts you at the top of a search page immediately, instead of waiting for ranking to build. GullySales sets the targeting, writes the ad text and checks spend against enquiries received.

Last updated 6 Oct 2026. Rules for this trade differ by state and professional body, and they change. We describe restrictions in general terms, so check the current position with your own council or adviser before you publish anything.

For eye hospitals

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “Advertise the department with room, not the hospital”

    If the cataract theatre is booked solid and the retina clinic has empty afternoons, an ad for the hospital's name fills the wrong queue. Spend should follow the department that can see more patients.

  • “Healthcare ads answer to two sets of rules”

    Google restricts some healthcare advertising, and advertising rules for doctors and hospitals differ by state and body. An ad promising freedom from glasses can be refused by one and questioned by the other.

  • “Many eye searches are not from patients”

    Students search optometry courses, shoppers search frames, and people with a red eye search home remedies. Without a blocked list, those clicks spend the budget before a cataract family sees the ad.

What we do

What we deliver for eye hospitals.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. A department chosen for spend

    A decision, made from your theatre and OPD diaries, on which department has free slots and real local searches, before any money is put in.

    Result: The ads fill the queue that has room.

  2. Search campaigns by procedure and town

    Separate campaigns for cataract surgery, retina and diabetic eye checks, glaucoma, and LASIK where you offer it, each with its own words and its own blocked list.

    Result: Each department's spend can be read on its own.

  3. Ad wording checked against the rules

    Copy that names the procedure, the department and the insurers you work with, with no outcome claims, read by your medical director before it runs.

    Result: Ads get approved and nobody's registration is put at risk.

  4. Landing pages that match the search

    The cataract ad lands on the cataract page with lens choices and the booking number, and the retina ad on the retina page with clinic days.

    Result: The click becomes a call instead of a back button.

  5. Calls and bookings traced to the search

    A tracked number per campaign and a source field at registration, so each call is matched to a department and a booking, against the baseline taken first.

    Result: You see what a booked consultation cost by department, not what a click cost.

How the result is measured

  • Cost per click
  • Cost per enquiry
  • Enquiries from paid search

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

Searches to bid on and block

The searches an eye hospital should pay for, and the ones to keep out.

Cataract operation plus your town, or near me
Bid, if the theatre has slots. The family is choosing a hospital. Land on the cataract page with lens choices, insurers and a call button, never the home page.
Retina specialist and diabetic eye check searches
Bid for the retina clinic's free days. Many of these searchers were sent by a diabetologist. Land on the retina page with clinic timings, and say the visit includes dilation.
Cashless and scheme searches for eye surgery
Bid where you are empanelled. Name the insurers, TPAs and schemes you accept on the landing page, with the documents to bring. Never bid on a scheme you are not on.
Spectacles, frames, lens price and eye drops
Block from the surgery campaigns, unless the optical counter is what you want to sell. These are shoppers, and they belong in a separate campaign or nowhere.
Optometry course, jobs, home remedy and eye exercise searches
Block. Students, job seekers and people hoping to lose their glasses without surgery are not patients. Read the search terms report and add each new variation as a negative.
Where the click lands, and what counts
Count a call to the department line or a booked OPD slot, with the department written at registration. A click, or a call asking for the optical shop's hours, is not an enquiry.

Who it is for

This is written for these eye hospitals.

  • Multi-speciality eye hospitals
  • Eye hospitals with community outreach
  • Eye hospitals attached to medical colleges
  • Charitable and trust-run eye hospitals
  • Corporate and chain eye hospitals
  • Eye hospitals with optical and pharmacy services

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You want a guaranteed Google ranking or a guaranteed number of leads. Nobody honest can promise either.
  • You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
  • You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is reply time, a follow-up sequence, the page buyers land on or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the pay per click advertising work runs

  1. 1

    Understand the total budget

    We agree the full paid advertising budget available across all platforms, rather than planning each one separately.

  2. 2

    Audit current platform performance

    We compare existing campaigns on a shared basis to see where the budget currently performs best and worst.

  3. 3

    Build the cross-platform plan

    Campaigns are structured across platforms with a shared measurement standard from the outset.

  4. 4

    Implement and monitor

    Campaigns run with budget allocated dynamically based on real-time performance.

  5. 5

    Measure and reallocate

    We report performance and shift budget toward what is working, within agreed limits.

Why us

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

  • Marketing and sales, as one job

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Should we bid on our own hospital's name?
Yes, but as a small campaign kept apart from the surgery ones. Patients sent by an optician or a camp search your name, and a rival hospital or a directory can take that click. Keep it apart from the surgery campaigns so it does not flatter their figures.
Should we run call-only ads?
For the eye emergency line and for families of older patients, a call is the natural next step, so call ads suit them. Run them only in hours when someone answers that number, and record which department each call was for.
Our ads keep showing to people looking for optometrist jobs. How do we stop it?
Add jobs, vacancy, salary, course, college and internship as negative words across every campaign, and read the search terms list for new variations. Put recruitment on a careers page so those searches have somewhere to go.
Which of our calls actually came from the ads?
Put a tracked number on each campaign and its landing page, and ask every caller at registration where they heard of you. Write the department against the answer, so a booked cataract consultation can be traced back to the search that started it.
Can we publish testimonials or before-and-after results?
Medical council rules restrict testimonials and result advertising for doctors, and the position differs and changes. We publish neither without your adviser's say-so. A clear explanation of the service does the same work.
Can we run discounts on surgery packages?
Packages with clear prices help families compare. Inducements and discounts on procedures may be restricted, so we keep to plain packages and your adviser confirms anything promotional.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped after we have read your brief and spoken to you, and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
Your brief, and a conversation. After that, access to whatever this work touches, such as your website, your accounts or your enquiry record, and time with the people who handle your enquiries.
