Cloud and DevOps service companies · Search engine optimisation

Rank for the problem a CTO types at midnight, not for the word cloud.

SEO for a cloud and DevOps firm is being found on the searches engineers and CTOs run when something has gone wrong or is about to change: a bill, a migration, a failed deployment. GullySales builds pages for those searches, checks that your best technical writing is reachable from the pages that sell, and traces organic visits through to assessments booked.

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 cloud and DevOps service companies

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

  • “The head terms bring students, not buyers”

    Searches for cloud and DevOps in general bring course seekers, certification candidates and job hunters, while the buyer's own words are narrower: reduce the AWS bill, migrate servers to Azure.

  • “Engineers arrive through the error message”

    A developer pastes the exact error or types the exact task, and a firm that has solved it in writing meets the buyer's team before it meets the buyer.

  • “The engineering blog is cut off from the pages that sell”

    Posts sit on a separate subdomain or a hosted platform that no service page links to, so the attention they earn never reaches the offer.

What we do

What we deliver for cloud and DevOps service companies.

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 trigger and each cloud

    Cost review, data-centre migration, managed Kubernetes and a DevOps retainer each get a page, with AWS, Azure and Google Cloud treated separately where the work differs.

    Result: A buyer's search lands on the page that names their situation.

  2. Technical posts built from real tickets

    A short list of problems your engineers solved last year, turned into posts with the command, the diagram and the reason, and reviewed by the engineer who did the work.

    Result: Engineers searching for a fix find you before they find a forum thread.

  3. Comparison pages for the decision stage

    Hire a DevOps engineer or retain a firm, managed Kubernetes or self-run, lift-and-shift or re-platform, each written as a fair comparison and not as a sales pitch.

    Result: You are present in the search a buyer runs just before shortlisting.

  4. Sector pages for regulated customers

    Pages for lenders, hospitals and software companies selling to large enterprises, naming where data sits and who has access, in the compliance head's vocabulary.

    Result: Buyers with data residency worries find a page that takes them seriously.

  5. A structure check across site, blog and docs

    Blog, documentation and marketing site checked for what a crawler can reach, with moves and redirects listed for your engineers to apply.

    Result: Your authority flows to the pages that carry the offer.

  6. Organic visits traced to assessments booked

    Sessions, form fills and calls from organic search, broken out by page and followed to assessments and signed projects in your CRM, read against the baseline.

    Result: You can name the pages that bring projects.

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 CTO or IT head types when the problem is live, and the page that answers it.

reduce AWS bill for a start-up
A cost review page. Say what is inspected, such as idle resources, data transfer and commitment plans, and what access you need. State plainly that you cannot promise a saving until you see the account.
migrate on-premise servers to Azure
A migration page per cloud. Set out discovery, landing zone, cutover and rollback in the order they happen, and who on the client side must do what at each step.
DevOps consultant for a start-up
A retainer page that compares a firm with hiring one engineer. Cover leave cover, on-call, documentation and what happens when the one person who knows the pipelines resigns.
managed Kubernetes services India
A page that says which clusters you run, on which cloud, and when you advise a client against Kubernetes altogether. Honesty about the small-team case earns the reference.
cloud infrastructure for SOC 2
An audit-readiness page on the infrastructure controls you set up, such as access, logging and backups. Say clearly that the auditor, not you, issues the report.
terraform state lock error
A how-to post an engineer finds when stuck. Give the fix in full, name the person who wrote it and add one plain link to your retainer page for teams who would rather not be on call.

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.

Should we write about tools or about client problems?
Client problems. A post about a tool's new feature is read by people who already use it, and the vendor wrote it better. A post about why a cluster ran out of IP addresses during a sale is something only someone who has done the work can write.
Do we need pages for each city when the work is remote?
Not for most of it. Cloud work is bought on the problem, not on the postcode. Add a city page only where you really meet clients, such as a Bengaluru office for kick-offs, and keep it short and honest about what happens on site.
Our engineers hate writing. How do we get posts out of them?
Do not ask them to write. Ask for the ticket, the command history and ten minutes on the phone, and have an editor draft it. The engineer reads and corrects the draft, which takes far less of their time than a blank page.
Can we publish our runbook and pipeline templates?
Publish cleaned templates, with every client name, account number and key removed. Engineers share and link to useful templates, which brings the links and visits no service page earns. Have a second person check each file before it goes up.
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.
