SEO for businesses in Pokhara
Pokhara is the starting point for Annapurna treks like Annapurna Base Camp, Mardi Himal and Poon Hill. Trek and travel companies here aren’t only competing for local searches. They compete with agencies across Nepal and abroad for the same trek packages.
As an SEO expert in Nepal working mostly on trek and travel websites, I focus on the pages that bring booking inquiries: packages, itineraries and trip details.
Mostly online, in person when I can
Most of my work with Pokhara businesses happens over online meetings, calls and WhatsApp. When I’m in Pokhara, I’m happy to meet in person.
The audit, the work and the monthly report are the same either way.
Problems I find on trek and travel websites
These come up again and again on the trek and travel websites I work on, including sites selling Annapurna-region treks.
- 404 errors from expired departure dates and deleted or renamed trek packages
- Migration mistakes: a new server, CMS or design launched without redirects, wiping out rankings
- Crawl budget wasted on near-duplicate package, itinerary and date pages
- Off-topic blog posts that weaken how Google sees your site’s topic
- Thin content published fast, without research or fact-checking
- Prices, group sizes or trip days that differ between sections of the same page

Migration cleanup on a trek website
After a migration, a trek and travel website with thousands of pages had 30 to 40 broken URLs, mostly expired trip departure pages. I redirected each one to its main trek package and cleaned up crawl budget, so Google spends its visits on the pages that matter.
Client URLs blurred for privacy. Swipe, scroll or use the arrows.
Own trek website · Booking inquiries
Real booking inquiries from my own trek website
About two months after launch, my own trek website started bringing in booking inquiries from trekkers, and most of them became paying customers. It uses the same process I use for client websites. Names, phone numbers and emails are blurred.
Real messages from trekkers. Personal details blurred.
I’m currently working with a trek and travel company in Pokhara. I’ll add its results here when there’s enough data. See all SEO case studies

Plan SEO around the trekking seasons
The main trekking seasons are autumn and spring, and most travellers plan and book their trips before they start. Pages that are fixed and optimised well ahead of the season have time to rank when people search.
That’s why I start with technical fixes and your main package pages, then build content and links ahead of each season.
How long does SEO take?
It depends on your website, your competition and how much needs fixing, so I don’t promise a timeline. Trekking is one of the most competitive niches in Nepal, so steady work over several months is normal.
My own trek website started getting booking inquiries after about two months, using the same process I use for clients.
After a redesign or migration
Many trek and travel websites lose rankings after moving to a new server, CMS or design without a redirect plan. Old package URLs return 404 errors and years of rankings disappear.
I map every old URL to its closest new page, add permanent redirects and clean up crawl budget. See my technical SEO services.
Content that matches each trek
Every trek page should answer what travellers ask before they book: days, difficulty, permits, best season and price. The details also need to match across the whole page.
I research and fact-check trek content with you, so trekkers, Google and AI answers can trust it. See my SEO content writing.

Trekking and travel agencies start from $200 per month, because trekking is one of the most competitive niches in Nepal. Other businesses start from $150. The final price comes after your free audit, and contracts run for 3, 6 or 12 months.

Questions about SEO in Pokhara
How much does SEO cost for a trek agency in Pokhara?
Plans for trekking and travel agencies start at $200 per month, and at $150 for other businesses. You get a free audit first. The final price depends on the size of your website, the number of trek packages and the problems in the audit.
Do you meet clients in Pokhara?
Most of my work with Pokhara clients happens over online meetings, calls and WhatsApp. When I’m in Pokhara, I’m happy to meet in person.
Can you get my trek packages found by foreign trekkers?
That’s the main goal. I optimise your package pages and content for how trekkers from the UK, USA, Australia, Europe, India and Japan search, and for travellers from within Nepal.
My bookings drop in the off-season. Can SEO help?
SEO can’t change the seasons, but it can make sure your packages rank when travellers start planning. I fix and optimise your main pages well before the autumn and spring seasons, so they’re ready when people search.
My traffic fell after a redesign. Can you fix it?
Often, yes. I compare your old and new URLs, redirect lost package pages to the right new pages and fix broken links, then watch Search Console until things settle. How much traffic comes back depends on how long ago the move happened.
Do you also work with clinics in Pokhara?
Yes. Clinics get technical fixes, clear treatment pages, patient-focused content and help with their Google Business Profile. Plans for clinics start at $150 per month.
