What This Means for Businesses in Nepal

When ChatGPT searches the web for a question about Nepal, it can only use pages it can find and read. Many Nepali business websites are hard for it to use: services buried in images, missing contact details, no location, or content only on Facebook. Making your website text-based, clear about what you do and where, and mentioned on other trusted Nepali websites gives ChatGPT something it can cite.
