Gautam Khorana, co-founder of Seahawk Media, built HostList.io — a 28,000-page programmatic directory on Next.js and Supabase that survived the Helpful Content Update hostlist.io. He documents the quality-gate playbook openly /programmatic-seo and scopes every project personally /services.

the questions
The questions you're probably asking.
What does Gautam Khorana do?
I am Co-Founder and COO at Seahawk Media, a WordPress, Next.js, and Astro agency I started in 2018. We have shipped over 12,000 sites across four hubs in London, New York, New Delhi, and Ahmedabad. I personally built HostList.io, a programmatic-SEO directory of about 28,000 web hosting companies, and host WP Legends, an interview series with founders and operators in the WordPress ecosystem.
Where is Gautam Khorana based?
London, working from Office 77, 22 Notting Hill Gate. The Seahawk Media team is global, four hubs cover every working hour from 06:00 GMT through 22:00 PST, but I am based in the UK and most client kickoff calls happen in a UK or US working hour.
What stacks does Gautam Khorana work on?
WordPress (classic, Bricks Builder, native Gutenberg), headless WordPress paired with Next.js or Astro, pure modern stacks on Next.js or Nuxt with Sanity, Payload, Storyblok, Strapi, or Contentful, and bespoke SaaS on Next.js plus Supabase. I pick the stack to match the brief, not the other way round.
Can I hire Gautam Khorana directly or only through Seahawk Media?
Both routes start with a conversation with me. Engagements are delivered through Seahawk Media for the operational depth and the senior team, but every kickoff call is with me directly, there is no sales chain between you and the person scoping your project.
What does Gautam Khorana write about?
WordPress development and agency operations, technical SEO and AI search visibility (GEO and AEO), programmatic SEO at scale (lessons from running HostList.io), and the occasional personal post about life in London. The blog is at /blog/; the personal essays are under /blog/topic/personal/.
