Scrap recycling companies · Search engine optimisation

Rank the yard for the metal a factory is searching to sell.

SEO for a scrap yard means making your pages answer the searches of people who want to sell or buy a particular metal near a particular place. GullySales works on metal-wise pages, the words sellers actually type and the technical basics that let search engines read your site.

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

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 scrap recycling companies

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

  • “Sellers search by metal and by place”

    A stores head types the metal and the industrial area, such as aluminium scrap buyer near a named estate. A site with one page headed scrap dealer cannot answer that search, and a map pin cannot either.

  • “Rate searches are real but cannot be won with a number”

    People search for the scrap rate today. Printing a rate that is stale by evening harms trust. A page that explains what you buy and invites a call for the current rate holds the search without a false figure.

  • “Mill buyers search in a different vocabulary”

    A foundry buyer looks for graded, sorted or segregated material by name of alloy and form. Those words belong on pages written for buyers, apart from pages written for sellers.

What we do

What we deliver for scrap recycling companies.

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

  1. Keyword map by metal, grade and area

    A plan matching each page to the words sellers and buyers use for that metal and your service areas.

    Result: A map showing which page is meant to answer which search.

  2. Metal pages with real detail

    Pages for each metal describing forms accepted, how weighing is done, what papers you hand over and how payment works.

    Result: Each page reads as written by a yard, with specifics.

  3. Area pages for industrial belts

    Pages for the estates and zones you actually serve, listing the metals and the pickup arrangement for that area.

    Result: A page exists for each belt where you want calls.

  4. Technical clean-up

    Titles, headings, page speed on a phone and a clear site structure so crawlers can read the whole site.

    Result: A list of fixes made, with the pages they touch.

  5. Search tracking

    Which searches bring visitors, which pages they land on and which of them call.

    Result: A report of pages that bring calls and pages that bring none.

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.

How it works

How the search engine optimisation work runs

The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.

  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.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.

  1. Step 1

    Sales audit

    Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.

    Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.

  2. Step 2 · you are here

    Sales process design

    One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. Step 3

    Sales management

    A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.

    Start here if the team has targets and no routine.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Is SEO worth it when sellers call whoever they know?
Known contacts cover regular lifts. Search covers the plant that needs a new yard, a new stores head who has no contacts yet, and the contractor on an unfamiliar site. Those are the calls SEO is for.
Can you promise first position for scrap buyer searches?
No. Nobody can promise a position. We make the pages specific and correct, keep the site healthy and report what the searches bring, so you decide with figures from your own site.
Should the rate be on the website?
Only if you can keep it current. A rate that is out of date does harm. Some yards list what they buy and ask visitors to call or message for the day's rate.
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.
