/ This is for you if
You run a clinic, restaurant, or service business in Kathmandu — and your competitors show up in the Maps pack when nearby customers search, while your listing is buried below them.
You have a Google Business Profile but it has the wrong category, no photos, and outdated hours. You've never built it out properly because no one ever told you it mattered.
Your business is listed inconsistently across the web — different phone numbers on Google, your website, and old directory listings — and Google's trust in your listing has dropped.
You have one or two old reviews from years ago. A competitor with 40 recent reviews is ranking above you and getting the calls you should be getting.
/ What's broken
An unclaimed or partially filled GBP listing is the single fastest way to lose local customers. Google shows complete, active listings first. If your hours, photos, and services aren't there, you're invisible to the people closest to you.
The local pack — the three map results at the top of Google — gets more clicks than the organic results below it. If you're not in those three spots for "clinic Kathmandu" or "plumber Lalitpur," that traffic is going to whoever is.
Name, address, and phone number must match exactly across Google, your website, and every directory that lists you. One mismatch — a different street abbreviation, an old phone number — and Google's trust in your listing drops.
In Nepal's service sector, word-of-mouth still drives decisions. Google reviews are digital word-of-mouth. A competitor with 40 reviews and a 4.7 rating will rank above you and convert better than you, even if your service is better.
/ What we engineer
Each workstream is built by the team that audits it, and wired into the rest of your growth system.
Your GBP listing is the single most important factor in local pack rankings. Most businesses in Nepal have claimed theirs but left it half-empty. We rebuild it: correct primary and secondary categories, 10+ photos, keyword-informed description, services listed, and hours verified.
Finding the exact phrases people nearby type when they're looking for your service — including Kathmandu neighbourhood terms, Nepali-English mixed searches, and tourism-related queries where relevant.
Getting your business listed — with the same name, address, and phone number — across the directories Google uses to verify local businesses. Audit existing citations, correct mismatches, and build new ones on directories Google trusts for your industry.
A repeatable process for collecting Google reviews from real customers — not a one-time push. Steady review flow plus monitoring for suspicious patterns so fake negatives can be flagged and removed.
Pages built specifically for the areas you serve — suburbs, districts, and towns — targeting the local searches you're currently missing. Separate pages for Patan, Bhaktapur, Kirtipur, Pokhara, and wherever else your customers are.
Measuring what actually matters for a local business — calls from Google, direction requests, local pack position, and traffic from nearby searches. Monthly report in plain English with a clear "what changed, why, and what's next."

/ Common questions
Straight answers on scope, timelines and cost. Anything else, ask us directly.
Ask us directlyMost businesses in Kathmandu see measurable movement in local pack rankings within 60–90 days of a full GBP optimisation and citation campaign. The timeline is faster in Nepal than in more competitive markets — many niches in Kathmandu and Pokhara have fewer than 20 well-optimised competitors, which means a properly built profile can move into the pack within the first month. Sustained position typically locks in by month 3–4.
Yes — it is the most important local ranking factor Google uses, and it is free. A fully optimised GBP listing drives calls, direction requests, and website visits directly from search. Many small businesses in Nepal have never properly set theirs up, which means the opportunity to jump competitors by simply doing the basics is still very real.
Having a listing and having an optimised listing are different things. Most existing GBP profiles in Nepal have the wrong or missing business category, no service descriptions, fewer than five photos, and no recent posts. We audit what you have and rebuild the parts that are suppressing your ranking.
Yes. Multi-location local SEO requires a separate GBP listing and a separate local landing page for each location — each optimised for its own city's search terms. We handle both, and we track each location's performance independently.
Fake negative reviews are a real issue in Nepal's local search landscape. We monitor your review profile for suspicious patterns and guide you through Google's review removal process when fake reviews appear. We also build your legitimate review count quickly, which dilutes the impact of any isolated fake negatives.
A GBP listing alone can rank in the local pack without a website — but a website significantly strengthens your local authority and helps you capture the organic results below the map pack as well. We'll tell you honestly after the diagnostic whether a website is necessary for your goals or whether GBP alone will deliver what you need.
We don't publish pricing because every business starts from a different baseline. A clinic with an unclaimed GBP and no citations needs different work than a hotel chain that's already ranking but wants to dominate more neighbourhoods. The diagnostic tells us exactly what's needed — and gives you a clear scope before any retainer starts. Request the diagnostic first; pricing follows from the findings.
Yes. For businesses serving both Nepali-language and English-language searchers (tourism businesses, international schools, hospitality), we set up and optimise both language variants of your GBP listing and ensure your local landing pages target both language search patterns.
