Contract logistics providers · Search engine optimisation

Be the page a supply chain head finds when searching for a 3PL near the plant.

Search engine optimisation (SEO) for a contract logistics provider means appearing when a supply chain head, a procurement manager or a consultant searches for a capability in a place. Those searches name a service and a corridor: dedicated warehousing near Hosur, in-plant logistics for auto parts. GullySales builds a page for each service, industry and site area, and fixes the faults that keep them behind the directories.

What search engine optimisation means

Search engine optimisation (SEO) is the work of getting your website to appear when a buyer searches Google for what you sell. GullySales builds pages around real search terms, fixes technical issues that block ranking, and tracks which searches actually bring enquiries.

For contract logistics providers

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

  • “Buyers search a corridor, not a country”

    A site that says pan-India and nothing else matches no search. Nobody types logistics in India; they type a 3PL warehouse in Sriperumbudur or a milk run from Peenya.

  • “A directory page ranks for your own service”

    Listing sites rank for 3PL and send the same enquiry to five providers. Your own site has to answer the search better than a list does.

  • “The capability page is a brochure”

    End-to-end and 360 degree tell a logistics head nothing. The buyer wants the racking, the dock count, the warehouse system and the compliance papers.

What we do

What we deliver for contract logistics providers.

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

  1. A page for each service and industry

    Dedicated warehousing, in-plant logistics, milk runs and returns, each written separately for auto components, consumer durables, pharma and the other industries you run sites for.

    Result: A buyer finds the page for their own kind of goods.

  2. A specification page for each site

    Location, floor area, racking type, docks, clear height, power backup, fire approvals and the distance to the plants, the port or the ICD around it.

    Result: A shortlisting search finds the site with the facts it checks.

  3. A systems and integration page

    Which warehouse system you run, how it connects to a client's ERP, which reports a client receives and how stock is reconciled.

    Result: The technical question is answered without a call to a developer.

  4. A compliance and safety page

    The registrations, licences, insurance and certificates you actually hold, stated plainly, with a line on what is available to an audit team on request.

    Result: The buyer's compliance team has less to chase.

  5. Retired pages for old bids and closed sites

    When a site closes or a service stops, its page is redirected to the nearest live one rather than deleted.

    Result: Searches that used to land on the old page still reach you.

  6. Enquiries traced to each page

    RFIs, calls and forms from every service and site page, measured against the baseline recorded before work starts.

    Result: You see which page produced a bid invitation, not only a visit.

How the result is measured

  • Ranking positions
  • Organic traffic
  • Enquiries from organic search

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

Searches your buyers type

What a supply chain head or consultant types before sending an RFI, and the page that answers it.

3PL warehouse near Hosur for auto components
A site page with racking type, dock count, line-side delivery and the distance to plants in the belt. Say which industries the site already serves, so the buyer sees where the business fits.
dedicated warehousing contract for FMCG distribution
A page on how a dedicated contract runs: who manages the floor, what the warehouse system reports and how minimum volumes are explained. Leave the rates for the bid.
in-plant logistics provider for engineering plants
A page on line-side feeding, shift manning, safety rules and a sample shift handover sheet. Plant heads search for how the work is run on their floor.
milk run operator for supplier pickup in Chennai
A page on routes, pickup windows, returnable packaging and tracking, written by whoever plans the runs. Name the corridor and the type of parts you collect.
pharma 3PL with temperature-controlled storage
State the licences held and the temperature mapping you keep, and nothing you do not hold. A quality team reads these before the commercial offer.
contract logistics versus own warehouse
An early-stage explainer on what changes when a manufacturer hands the work over, including the cases where it should not happen. It catches the search before an RFQ exists.

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

    The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, 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 a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing 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 search engine optimisation work runs

  1. 1

    Audit and baseline

    We record where the site stands today: positions, traffic, technical faults and the enquiries search currently produces. Nothing starts until this number is written down.

  2. 2

    Decide what to rank for

    We map the searches your buyers use, in your words and theirs, and pick the ones worth the effort for your margin and your capacity.

  3. 3

    Fix the foundations

    Technical faults first, because the cheapest gains are usually there. Then the Business Profile and directory consistency.

  4. 4

    Build the pages

    A page for each thing you do, written to answer the question it is searched for, with a clear next step at the end.

  5. 5

    Publish and earn mentions

    Content goes out on the calendar. Links and mentions are earned from real relationships, not bought.

  6. 6

    Measure, report, adjust

    At the interval agreed at the start we report what moved and what did not, and change the plan when the numbers say so.

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.

#257, 3rd floor, Sri Nanjundeshwara Complex, Nagarbhavi 8th Block, Outer Ring Road. How we work.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
Should each warehouse site have its own page?
Yes, when the site has its own specification, corridor and kind of client. Buyers search by place, and a single page for five sites matches none of them. Write only for sites you operate today, and link each to the services it runs.
Do we need a blog to rank?
Not at the start. A page for each service, site and industry is worth more than a blog. Add articles later when your operations team has questions they answer on every visit, since those are the searches buyers type.
A bigger 3PL ranks above us. What can we copy?
Copy how its pages are organised, never its words. Look at which services and corridors it gives pages to, then write yours from your own sites with facts it cannot match, such as the dock count and the systems you run.
Who should own the website and its search accounts?
Your company, in its own name, with a director holding the logins for the domain, Search Console and analytics. An agency or a consultant holding them can take the site with them when the relationship ends.
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.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on the trade, the channel and what is already in place. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
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.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
