Crawlability and robots rules
Reviewing crawl paths, server responses, robots directives, and accidental block rules to make sure Google can reach the pages that matter.

Technical SEO Services in Nepal
I help businesses fix the technical issues that stop pages from being crawled, indexed, or trusted by Google in Nepal.
I'm Trinabh Karki, a technical SEO analyst working on the parts of search that are easy to overlook but hard to ignore once they break: crawlability, indexing, canonical tags, redirects, XML sitemaps, Search Console, and implementation-level fixes across the live site.
My focus is hands-on technical SEO for websites in Kathmandu and across Nepal that need clean structure, reliable indexing, and better visibility in search. That includes portfolio websites, local businesses, blogs, e-commerce stores, and content-heavy projects running on the CMS platforms and hosting setups already documented on this site.
The most common problems I handle are simple in principle but expensive in practice: pages not indexed, crawl errors, broken redirects, wrong canonical tags, duplicate URLs, sitemap gaps, Search Console warnings, migration issues, and weak technical foundations that make a strong website look weak to Google.
/ what I do
What technical SEO work includes
Indexing and noindex diagnostics
Checking which pages are being ignored, blocked, or treated as low-value, then removing the unnecessary blockers that keep strong pages out of the index.
Canonical and duplicate URL cleanup
Finding split signals, improper canonical targets, and duplicate URLs that make Google choose the wrong version of the same content.
Redirect chains, loops and 4xx repair
Mapping old URLs to the correct destination, collapsing multi-hop redirects, and fixing broken internal links or dead pages that leak crawler time.
XML sitemap architecture
Reviewing sitemap structure so only canonical, indexable, meaningful URLs are included and large sites do not suffer from bloated or misleading coverage.
Search Console and Bing verification
Setting up and checking properties, monitoring indexing issues, and validating fixes in Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools when access is available.
Internal linking and orphan-page discovery
Finding pages with no useful path to discovery, then improving navigation so crawlers and users can reach the right content without dead ends.
Core Web Vitals and performance diagnostics
Checking front-end weight, render-blocking issues, layout stability, and user-experience problems that reduce technical quality or slow page delivery.
Structured-data validation
Reviewing schema implementation for real visible content, making sure JSON-LD matches the page and does not claim things the page does not actually support.
Migration SEO and post-launch validation
Auditing site launches, platform changes, and URL moves to ensure redirects, canonicals, sitemaps, and tracking remain accurate after the transition.

How I work
Audit
I crawl the site, inspect URLs, and check the underlying technical issues affecting indexing and crawlability.
Prioritize
I separate critical blockers from medium-impact issues, focusing on the ones that stop pages from ranking or being indexed.
Fix
I implement the actual updates needed in the CMS, templates, server config, or sitemap structure.
Verify
I check Search Console, crawl results, redirects, canonical targets, and index coverage after the changes are live.
/ common issues
Common problems I diagnose
- Crawled — currently not indexed and other indexing patterns that mean Google sees the page but does not trust it enough to add it.
- Discovered — currently not indexed when a URL exists but has not earned the right to be indexed yet.
- Accidental
noindexdirectives left behind in templates or staging environments. - Blocked crawl paths from robots or server rules that prevent bots from reaching real content.
- Canonical tags pointing to the wrong page or a duplicate version of the same content.
- Redirect loops or chains that slow crawling and split ranking signals.
- Internal links pointing at redirects, non-canonical versions, or 404 pages.
- XML sitemaps containing non-canonical or temporary URLs instead of the live canonical pages.
- Soft 404 pages that return a 200 status but behave like low-value or broken pages.
- Slow or heavy templates that hurt page experience and make otherwise good content harder to trust.

Frequently asked questions
What is technical SEO?
Technical SEO is the work that makes a website readable, crawlable, indexable, and easy for search engines to understand. It covers things like status codes, canonicals, redirects, robots directives, sitemaps, Search Console, and site structure.
Why is my page crawled but not indexed?
It usually means Google can see the page but does not trust it enough to include it in the index. Common causes are accidental noindex rules, duplicates, weak canonicals, redirect loops, or low-value pages that behave like soft 404s.
How do you audit a website for technical SEO issues?
I review crawlability, index coverage, status codes, redirects, canonical tags, robots instructions, internal linking, sitemap quality, Search Console warnings, and the live implementation details that affect whether Google can understand the site.
Do you work with WordPress, Shopify and other CMS platforms?
Yes. I work across WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Magento, Wix, Squarespace, BigCommerce, Joomla, MODX, Sanity, static sites, headless builds, and hosting environments with DNS and verification tools.
How long can technical SEO fixes take to appear in Google?
It depends on crawl frequency, site health, and how quickly Google reprocesses the changes. Some fixes show up quickly; broader structural fixes can take weeks or months to settle.
Can technical SEO guarantee a #1 ranking?
No. Technical SEO improves eligibility, crawlability, indexability and relevance, but rankings depend on competition, content usefulness, backlinks, user demand, and time for crawling and reprocessing.
Do you implement fixes or only provide an audit?
I do both. I can audit the issues, explain the priority order, and implement the fixes directly when the site is in scope.
Can you help after a website migration?
Yes. Migration SEO is one of the most common places where indexing and signal loss happen, and the fix usually involves clean redirect mapping, canonical checks, sitemap updates, and post-launch validation.
Need an SEO audit for your site?
Send your website URL and I will review the crawl, indexing, sitemap, redirects, and Search Console issues before making a clear fix plan.
