The questions you're probably asking.
What does Gautam Khorana do?
Gautam Khorana builds fast websites and the technical SEO and AI-search systems behind them: Next.js, Astro, and headless CMS platforms, from London. I co-founded Seahawk Media in 2018 and ran it as COO until 2026, while the agency shipped over 12,000 sites across four hubs. I built HostList.io myself, a programmatic-SEO directory of 30,000+ web hosting companies, and I hosted 156 episodes of 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. 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?
Astro for content-heavy sites, 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?
Yes. Since leaving Seahawk Media in 2026 every engagement is with me directly: I scope it, I lead it, and specialists join when the brief needs them. There is no sales chain between you and the person doing the work.
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/.
