Digital publishing companies · Website
Give your site a page for advertisers and templates that load for readers.
A website for a digital publisher has two audiences at once: readers who want a readable page and buyers who want to know what you sell. The work covers both the article templates and the pages that sell. GullySales reviews the site and gives your developer a clear list.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What website means
A website is the page a customer lands on after searching, clicking an advert or scanning a code, and it decides whether they call or leave. GullySales builds and maintains sites that load quickly, explain the offer plainly and make the enquiry form or phone number easy to find.

For digital publishing companies
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The site has no door for advertisers”
A planner who likes your site looks for an advertise link and finds none. A page that explains the formats, shows the audience and names a contact turns that interest into an enquiry. Without it, the planner moves to a publisher who has one.
“Ad scripts can make a good article unreadable”
Too many ad units push the headline down, shift the text as they load and slow the page on a mid-range phone. The revenue per page rises while the readers who return fall. Layout needs a decision on how many units each template carries.
“Sign-up points sit in the footer where nobody scrolls”
A newsletter box at the bottom of the page is seen by the few who finish the article. Placing it inside the piece, after a useful paragraph, and on the pages that draw search visits reaches the readers who are already engaged.
“Sponsored pages need to be clear to readers and to search engines”
A sponsored article should carry a visible label and a clear page structure, and be easy to tell apart from reporting. Set the rule in the template so the editor cannot publish a paid piece without it.
What we do
What we deliver for digital publishing companies.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Advertise page
A page that sets out your audience, formats, a worked sample and a contact, written for a planner reading on a phone.
Result: A live page address you can paste into any sponsor email.
Article template review
A review of the reading experience on common phones, covering load, layout shift and the number of ad units.
Result: A written review with the template changes your developer should make first.
Sign-up placement plan
Where newsletter and channel prompts go on articles, section pages and the home page.
Result: A placement map applied to the busiest templates.
Sponsored content template
A template with the label, byline and disclosure fixed in place.
Result: A template editors choose when publishing a paid piece.
Audience facts page
A page of audience facts drawn from your analytics, kept current and free of estimates.
Result: A public page that agencies can cite and that your seller can link to.
How the result is measured
- Page load time
- Bounce rate
- Enquiries from the website
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
Searches your buyers type
What a planner types and the page on your site that should answer.
- advertise with [your site name]
- The advertise page: formats, audience facts by city and device, one worked sample and a named contact. Written for a planner reading on a phone.
- [your site name] media kit
- A kit page with a download and a plain-text version, since many planners paste rates into an email. Keep the date of the last update at the top.
- [your site name] audience demographics
- The audience facts page, built from your analytics and showing the source. Agencies cite it, so every figure must be one you can show.
- sponsored content guidelines [your site name]
- A page setting out the label, the byline, what the brand can edit and what it cannot. Reduces the back-and-forth after the deal is agreed.
- [your site name] newsletter archive
- A page of past issues that proves the newsletter exists and shows the writing. Doubles as a sample for the sponsor considering a newsletter slot.
Who it is for
This is written for these digital publishing companies.
- General news and current affairs websites
- Regional-language news portals
- Business, finance and startup publications
- Trade and B2B magazines that went digital
- Niche hobby and lifestyle blogs run as companies
- Newsletter-first publishers
- Education and exam-preparation content sites
- Local city and neighbourhood news sites
Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- Your developer cannot change the article template yet, so a new advertise page would sit inside a slow site that still loses the planner
- You have no audience figures you can stand behind, and an audience page full of estimates harms trust with the agencies that read it
How it works
How the website 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
Confirm structure and content
We agree the page list, what each page must answer, and who supplies the text and photographs, before any design starts.
- 2
Design the templates
The home page, a service page, a location page and the enquiry page are designed first, on phone and desktop, and shown to you.
- 3
Build and test
The site is built and checked on real phones and the common browsers. Every form, call button and WhatsApp link is tested end to end.
- 4
Load real content
Actual copy, images and information replace placeholders. Pages are read through once by you, since you spot wrong details we cannot.
- 5
Check before launch
Tracking, page titles, the sitemap and the privacy page are checked on the staging site. If an old site exists, its addresses are mapped so old links still land somewhere.
- 6
Launch and hand over access
The site goes live and we record the domain, hosting, content login and analytics in your name. The first live enquiry is traced to confirm tracking works.
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.
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.
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.
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.
