Accounting software providers · Search engine optimisation

Rank for the shop being billed, not for the word accounting.

SEO for an accounting software provider means appearing when a trader, a pharmacist or a contractor searches for billing software that fits the shop, the GST return or the old product they want to leave. GullySales works on the page structure, the search wording and the pages that answer switching questions.

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 accounting software providers

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

  • “Buyers search by trade and by task”

    The phrases are specific: GST invoice for a hardware shop, e-way bill software, stock register for a medical store. A single homepage describing accounting for everyone matches none of them and ranks for none of them.

  • “Competitor names are the strongest search terms”

    People type Tally, Busy, Marg or Vyapar followed by a problem. A page that treats those names honestly, with what your product does differently, meets a buyer who has already decided to look.

  • “Compliance searches arrive in bursts”

    When a GST or e-invoicing rule changes, owners search for what to do. A plain, dated explainer written for the shopkeeper earns a visit from someone who has no software yet, and the page has to say the CA must confirm the details.

  • “Product pages written for features lose to guides written for jobs”

    How to reconcile purchases with the returns, how to move opening balances, how to print a bill for a credit sale. These are the questions the munim types, and each is a page that a feature list cannot be.

What we do

What we deliver for accounting software providers.

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

  1. A page map by trade and by job

    A list of the trades you serve and the tasks each performs, turned into one page each with its own sample screen.

    Result: A written map showing which search belongs to which page.

  2. Switching pages for each older product

    A page for each source product covering what imports, what is checked by hand and who does the work.

    Result: Every named competitor search has a page to land on.

  3. Compliance explainers with a review note

    Short pages on e-invoicing, e-way bills and return filing, each saying what the product does and where the CA decides.

    Result: Compliance searches land on a page that is clear about its limits.

  4. Titles and descriptions written for the trade

    Page titles that carry the trade and the task in the buyer's own words.

    Result: Search results show trade words, not the product slogan.

  5. Search tracking by page

    Impressions, clicks and trial starts recorded for each trade page.

    Result: You can name the trade pages that bring trials.

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.

  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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Should we write about GST rules at all?
Yes, as long as the page states what the product does and sends the reader to their CA for the rule itself. Rules change, so each page carries a note about checking current guidance.
Can SEO beat the big names on their own name?
Not by being louder. The route is the long search: a trade, a task, a problem. Those pages are where a smaller provider is allowed to win.
Do we need a separate site for each trade?
No. One site with a clear page per trade is stronger than several thin sites. Each trade page needs its own sample bill, its own words and its own trial route.
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.
