“Top digital marketing experts in Nepal” is a comparison query. Most results are recycled Top-10 posts with no method and no numbers you can check. This page is a 2026 buyer’s guide: what “top” should mean in Nepal, the questions that separate a practitioner from a boosting retainer, and the published case studies on this site. Last reviewed 20 August 2026.
Before you hire anyone for SEO, Google Ads, or Maps in Nepal, they should clear all four:
Agency teams are a different search: “best digital marketing agency in Nepal.” See Gurkha Technology if you need a multi-channel team. This URL is for experts — a named practitioner you can hold to a 90-day plan.
Arjan KC is a Kathmandu-based digital marketing expert (co-founder / lead strategist, Gurkha Technology). The results below are published here with methods — not screenshots from a private deck.
Clinic GBP map views ~+340% and search/Maps calls ~+85% (local SEO case); education Search −40% CPL at NPR 300,000/month (PPC case); home services −42% CPA in 90 days (CPA case); fashion organic-led revenue ~3× (e-commerce SEO case). Named Gurkha work includes Treebones Resort, Nepal Airlines, and Football Circus. Original CPC ranges: Nepal benchmark report.
Use this table with any practitioner. If they cannot answer it in writing, they are selling activity, not expertise.
| Ask this | Why it matters in Nepal |
|---|---|
| Whose Google Ads / GBP / GA4 is it? | If it sits on the vendor’s Gmail, you do not own the history when you leave. |
| Show me a number with a method. | Traffic screenshots without calls, CPL, or revenue are vanity. CPL / CPA definitions. |
| Is media spend separate from the fee? | SME Search tests often NPR 20,000–40,000/month in ads, plus management. Package ranges. |
| Do they know Maps vs Search vs Meta? | Clinics and trades usually need GBP first. Education and e-commerce often need Search or catalog ads. One “Facebook boosting” retainer is not expertise. |
There is no government ranking. Treat “top” as someone whose Nepal work you can audit: a named person, accounts in your name, and a number with a method. This site publishes that bar for Arjan KC. Hire on audited numbers, not on the heading of a directory post.
Because this page can point to methods and figures on the same domain — case studies, research, and NPR packages. That is the comparison you can finish without leaving.
Named expert: scope, access, 90-day plan — hire packages. Multi-channel team: Gurkha Technology. Profile: expert page.
Diagnostic, Local Demand, and Search Performance packages are written in NPR, with media spend separate.
