Everyone claims to "do SEO". But SEO done badly wastes months — or gets your site penalised. Here's what the best SEO company in Nepal should actually deliver, and how to spot the difference.
1. Technical SEO
Crawlability, indexing, Core Web Vitals, mobile usability, structured data (schema), canonical tags, sitemaps and robots.txt. If a website isn't technically healthy, content and links won't help much. The best SEO companies have developers who can actually fix issues — not just report them.
2. Keyword research based on buyer intent
Ranking for "software" is vanity. Ranking for "ERP software for cooperatives in Nepal" brings buyers. Good SEO maps keywords to intent and to specific pages.
3. Local SEO
For businesses serving Kathmandu, Pokhara or any city, Google Business Profile optimisation, citations and reviews are essential to appear in Google Maps. Learn more in our local SEO guide.
4. Content that deserves to rank
Helpful, specific content: service pages, comparison guides, pricing explainers and FAQs. Google rewards experience and expertise.
5. White-hat link building
Links from relevant, trusted websites — local media, partners, associations. Avoid "1,000 backlinks for NPR 2,000" packages; they cause penalties.
6. AI search optimisation
Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Perplexity now answer many searches. SEO in 2026 must structure content so AI tools cite you. See our AEO/GEO guide.
7. Honest reporting
Monthly reports on rankings, organic traffic, leads and revenue — plus what was done and what's next.
Red flags
