Sankalpa Dahal
SEO Expert in Nepal
I'm Sankalpa Dahal, an SEO specialist and founder of Pikera SEO based in Biratnagar, Nepal. Since August 2024, I've been helping SaaS companies, startups, and businesses across Nepal achieve top Google rankings through data-driven SEO strategies. What makes me different? I'm both a Next.js frontend developer AND SEO specialist - I don't just recommend changes, I implement them myself.
About Sankalpa Dahal - Your Trusted SEO Partner in Nepal
I started my professional SEO journey in August 2024, but my fascination with search and digital marketing began long before that. As a Next.js frontend developer, I've always been interested in how things work under the hood - which naturally led me to the technical side of SEO.
My first major role was as an SEO Specialist with an AI-powered visa preparation platform, where I established their organic visibility from scratch. From there, I worked with Eruchi.com.np (a product sampling startup) as both an SEO Specialist and Frontend Developer - helping them achieve a #1 ranking for "product sampling Nepal."
I've also consulted for TheDrive.ai in the competitive AI tools space, helping them move from Page 4 to Page 2 for "NotebookLM alternatives." I founded Pikera SEO, an SEO agency focused on seed-funded SaaS startups that lack in-house SEO teams, where we've achieved multiple Top 10 rankings for startup-focused queries.
While I specialize in SaaS SEO, I work across industries - from e-commerce to local businesses in Biratnagar, Kathmandu, and beyond. My mission is simple: help Nepal businesses rank higher on Google and drive real business results through strategic, data-driven SEO.
What Makes Me Different from Other SEO Experts in Nepal
Five key advantages that set me apart in Nepal's SEO landscape
SaaS SEO Specialization
I'm the only SEO expert in Nepal who specializes in SaaS. I understand product-led growth, buyer intent keywords, trial optimization, and how SaaS companies acquire customers differently.
Developer + SEO Combined
As a Next.js frontend developer AND SEO specialist, I don't just recommend technical fixes - I implement them myself. Faster execution, better results, no miscommunication.
Modern SEO Practices
Starting in August 2024 means I'm trained on the latest 2024-2025 SEO practices, AI-driven strategies, and modern search behaviors. Not stuck in outdated 2015 tactics.
Data-Driven, Not Guesswork
Every strategy is backed by research, competitor analysis, and real metrics. I use tools like Ahrefs, SEMrush, and Google Analytics to make informed decisions.
Founder-Friendly Approach
I primarily work with startups and early-stage companies, so I understand budget constraints, fast iteration cycles, and the need for measurable ROI.
