Home improvement stores · Search engine optimisation
Be the page a family finds when searching for tiles, fittings or a fitter.
SEO for a home improvement store is the work of making your ranges, your project services and your location appear when a household searches for something to fix, paint or fit. GullySales works on the page structure, the wording of range and project pages, and the technical basics behind them.
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 home improvement stores
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Searchers name the room, the fault or the item”
People type a leaking tap washer, bathroom tiles for a small room, or how to waterproof a terrace. Each phrase is a page the store can own. One page titled Hardware answers none of them, so range pages must be written in the words used at home.
“A wide range makes a thin site”
Hundreds of items listed with a name and a price give a search engine little to read. A handful of pages explaining which adhesive suits which tile, with the brands you stock, stand better than a long run of near-empty product pages.
“Brand names pull searchers to the brand”
A search carrying a paint or fittings brand is answered by the maker and the large marketplaces. A store page wins by adding what they cannot: stock on a shelf near the searcher, a named fitter and delivery inside your area.
“The seasons move the questions”
Waterproofing before the rains, fans and coolers before summer, lights before festivals. A page prepared before the season is searched is the page found when it arrives, and a page written in the middle of it is late.
What we do
What we deliver for home improvement stores.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Range pages in household wording
One page each for paint, tiles, taps, electrical and hardware, written around what the buyer is trying to do.
Result: Each department has a page that a searcher can land on and understand.
Use guides tied to your stock
Short explanations such as which putty goes under which paint, naming only brands you actually hold.
Result: Every guide links to the shelf where the product sits.
Titles and descriptions for every department
Page titles and snippets that name the item, the use and the town.
Result: Search results show a clear line for each page, not a blank or a repeat.
Project pages for kitchen and bathroom work
A page per room project describing the package, the fitter panel and how a quote is asked for.
Result: A family searching for a room refresh lands on the project desk page.
A technical check of the site
Loading on a phone, pages indexed, duplicate pages removed and links that lead nowhere repaired.
Result: A written list of what was found and what was fixed.
A Search Console baseline
The queries and pages recorded before the work starts, so later movement can be read against them.
Result: You can open Search Console and see which phrases bring visits.
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
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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
Fix the foundations
Technical faults first, because the cheapest gains are usually there. Then the Business Profile and directory consistency.
- 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
Publish and earn mentions
Content goes out on the calendar. Links and mentions are earned from real relationships, not bought.
- 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.
