Be one of the three places people see on Google Maps
For hotels, spas, clinics and trekking agencies in Nepal. We correct your Google Business Profile, make your website easy for Google and AI answers to quote, and measure where you rank on a map grid, before and after, every month.
Why most businesses are not found
People pick from what Google shows them first.
- Google shows three places firstSearch "spa in Pokhara" or "trekking agency in Thamel" and Google puts three businesses on a map above everything else. The rest are one tap further down, behind "More places".
- Good businesses miss outOn 4 October 2026 a day spa in Pokhara with 4.9 stars and 482 reviews was in that top 3 at only 1 of 18 points we measured around its street. Being good is not the same as being found.
- AI answers only quote what Google can readGoogle also answers searches with AI Overviews and AI Mode. They draw on pages Google has indexed and is allowed to quote. A website Google cannot index, or one that blocks snippets, cannot be quoted.
What we do
Four parts, done in the order that moves rank.
Your Business Profile set up and corrected
Google can tell what you are, what you offer and when you are open.
- Categories that complete "This business is a ...", as few and as specific as Google asks.
- Google's ready-made services ticked. A published test found they now help ranking; custom services are unproven.
- Correct hours, real photos, owner posts and a reply to every review.
- Wrong details fixed through Google support, like a wrong "Located in" line or the wrong type of place.
Your rank measured on a map grid
You see where you appear, point by point, before we start and after.
- We search your main keywords from a grid of points around your business and record whether you are in the top 3 at each one.
- Always during opening hours, at the same hour each month: Google ranks a closed business behind open ones.
- Paid ads are left out, so the number is your unpaid rank.
Your website made indexable and snippet-ready
Google can index your pages and quote them in search and in AI answers.
- We check your pages are indexed and not blocked from showing a snippet.
- Business structured data and clear text on what you offer and where you are.
- New and changed pages sent to Bing and the other IndexNow search engines.
Monthly tracking
One short report a month with numbers, not adjectives.
- The same grid measurement, at the same hour.
- Your reviews counted against the businesses that beat you most often.
- The next fixes, ranked by what moves rank.
A day spa in Pokhara
2 searches, "spa in Pokhara" and "massage in Pokhara", each from 9 points about 700 m apart around Lakeside: 18 checks. Both measurements in opening hours, signed out, paid ads left out.
| Measured | 4 Oct 2026 | 23 Oct 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| In the top 3 | 1 of 18 | 7 of 18 |
| Rank at its own location, "spa" | #8 | #1 |
| Rank at its own location, "massage" | #5 | #1 |
| Google reviews | 482 | 524 |
The work on record
- Had Google remove a wrong "Located in" line that placed the spa inside another business (August 2026).
- Closed bookings on a Booking.com listing that had led Google to treat the spa as a hotel, and took the hotel label to Google's specialist team. By 23 October the hotel booking box no longer showed on the profile.
- Fixed a misspelt service name and replied to reviews.
- Measured the rank on the same grid twice and drew up a ranked list of fixes.
What we cannot claim
We cannot prove which change did it. No posts went up and the website did not change between the two measurements. Reviews grew by 42 in those 19 days, more than at any of the three leading spas nearby.
It is not finished: in the south of Lakeside, two spas with more reviews and closer to the searcher still hold the top 3.
Who it is for
Hotels and guesthouses
Travellers search on their phones, and Google weighs how far you are from them. We put the work into the searches you can win from where you are.
Spas and clinics
For the Pokhara spa, "spa near me" was the most common search that showed its profile over six months. Near-me searches are decided on the map.
Trekking and tour agencies
Many agencies sell to foreign trekkers and earn in US dollars. An agency with an office clients can visit qualifies for a profile; we also make your website easy for Google and AI answers to quote.

Plain answers
Can you guarantee the top 3?
No. Google says local results are based mainly on relevance, distance and prominence, and that a rank cannot be requested or bought. We work on relevance and prominence and measure honestly. Distance from the person searching nobody can change.
Do I need an llms.txt file or special code to appear in AI answers?
Not for Google. Google says no special file, AI text file or schema is needed for AI Overviews or AI Mode. The page has to be indexed and allowed to show a snippet. That is the part we check.
Will posting on my Google profile raise my rank?
We have not seen it. Posts help people who open your profile decide. In our Pokhara case the rank rose in a period with no posts. Categories, services, reviews and links to your website are what we work on for rank.
Can every business get a Google profile?
Only a business that customers visit, or one that travels to its customers. Online-only businesses, virtual offices and P.O. boxes do not qualify. A business that serves customers at their place hides its address.
Will you write reviews for us?
No. We never write or buy reviews. We help you ask real guests and reply to every review.
What does it cost?
There is no fixed package. It depends on how many locations and searches matter to you. We look at your profile first and send a quote after the call.
