Cybersecurity companies · Search engine optimisation

Rank for the audit a compliance head must buy, not for hacking tutorials.

Search engine optimisation (SEO) for a cybersecurity company means ranking on the searches a buyer types once a deadline is set: VAPT for a web application, an ISO 27001 consultant, SOC 2 readiness, a security audit for a lender. GullySales builds a page for each service, standard and regulated sector, and traces organic enquiries through to signed engagements.

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 cybersecurity companies

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

  • “The broad words bring students and job seekers”

    Cyber security, ethical hacking and penetration testing are also what students and freshers type, so ranking for them fills the contact form with internship requests.

  • “One services page hides every service”

    A buyer searching for API penetration testing lands on a grid of service icons, finds no scope or method, and goes back to the results.

  • “Threat news posts sell nothing”

    A rewrite of yesterday's breach headline competes with every news site, while a page on what a cloud configuration review checks is read by someone about to buy one.

What we do

What we deliver for cybersecurity 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 service and the standard behind it

    Web, mobile and API testing, cloud configuration review, SOC monitoring, ISO 27001 and SOC 2 support, each with its own page naming the scope, the method and the report a client receives.

    Result: A buyer searching for one service lands on that service.

  2. Sector pages for the buyers regulators push

    Pages for banks and NBFCs, stockbrokers, insurers, hospitals and SaaS exporters, each saying in general terms why that sector is asked for assessments and what the work covers.

    Result: A compliance head finds a firm that knows their sector's paperwork.

  3. City pages only where testers go on site

    A page for Bengaluru, Pune or Mumbai only if your team does on-site testing, wireless assessments or tabletop exercises there, written around that work rather than the city name.

    Result: No thin pages dragging the rest of the site down.

  4. Method and glossary pages a tester signs off

    Plain explanations of terms buyers meet in an RFP, such as grey box testing, retesting and risk ratings, each reviewed by the practitioner whose name is on it.

    Result: Buyers early in the search meet your method first.

  5. Search terms sorted into buyers and learners

    Search Console queries split into buyer, student and job seeker groups, with pages rewritten so the buyer searches get the attention.

    Result: Rankings bring enquiries instead of CVs.

  6. Organic enquiries traced to engagements

    Enquiries from search tagged by landing page in your CRM and followed to scoping calls and signed work, read against the baseline taken before work starts.

    Result: You can name the page that produced a signed assessment.

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 security buyer types once a deadline is set, and the page that should answer it.

VAPT services for a web application
A service page stating what is tested, the method followed, whether testing is black box or grey box, and what the report contains. Name what is out of scope so the buyer can compare quotes fairly.
ISO 27001 consultant in Bengaluru
A page for implementation and surveillance audit support, saying who leads the work and what the client's own team must do. Add the city only if your consultants visit offices there.
SOC 2 readiness for an Indian SaaS company
A page for founders whose US customer asked for a report. Explain the difference between readiness work and the audit itself, and say plainly that an independent audit firm issues the report.
Cyber security audit for an NBFC
A sector page explaining in general terms why lenders are asked for assessments and which documents the work produces. Point readers to the regulator's current circular rather than quoting it.
CERT-In empanelled auditor
Say whether you hold the empanelment and, if you do, the scope and validity shown on CERT-In's own list. If you do not hold it, keep the phrase off your pages.
Difference between a vulnerability scan and a penetration test
A method page for a buyer holding two very different quotes. Show what a scanner finds, what a tester adds by hand, and an excerpt from a redacted report so the gap is visible.

Who it is for

This is written for these cybersecurity companies.

  • VAPT and security audit firms, including CERT-In empanelled auditors
  • Managed security service providers running a SOC for clients
  • Governance, risk and compliance consultancies for ISO 27001, SOC 2 and data protection readiness
  • Security product companies selling endpoint, email, identity or data protection tools
  • Value-added resellers and system integrators for firewall and security OEMs
  • Incident response and digital forensics teams
  • OT and industrial control system security specialists for plants and utilities
  • Security awareness and phishing simulation training providers

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Your testers cannot review a page before it goes live, so pages on methods would carry claims nobody has checked.
  • You turn away web application work and take only incident calls, so ranking for audits would bring buyers you decline.

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 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 an interval agreed in writing 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.

Tell us what you need
Do we need a separate page for every type of penetration test?
Yes, where the scope, the method or the buyer differs. A web application test, a network test and a mobile app test are bought by different people and searched in different words. Two services that differ only in price can share a page.
Should our blog cover every new vulnerability?
No. News sites and vendors publish those within hours and will outrank you. Write about a vulnerability only when you can add what a buyer should check or ask their vendor, and put the rest of the effort into service and method pages.
Can we copy the structure of a big competitor's site?
Copy the questions their pages answer, not the words or the layout. Large firms rank on years of links and brand searches you cannot match. Find the buyer questions their pages answer badly and write a better page for each.
Our developer built the site. Who should own the domain and the Search Console account?
Your company, under an address that belongs to a role rather than a person. Give the developer and any agency their own access that you can remove. A security firm that cannot say who controls its own domain gives a buyer an easy reason to doubt it.
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.
