An SEO agency in Vietnam helps a foreign company get found in Vietnamese, by Vietnamese customers, on Google and in AI answers. Google holds about 93% of search in Vietnam, so Google visibility in Vietnamese is the core of the job. Unitrux is a Vietnamese company that does this for foreign brands, with plans and reports in English.

Many foreign companies launch in Vietnam with a translated website and an English-speaking agency back home, then wonder why enquiries never arrive. Vietnamese customers search in Vietnamese, compare differently and trust different signals. The result is a strong product that the market simply cannot find.

The Vietnamese market in numbers
DataReportal's Digital 2026 Vietnam report counts 85.6 million internet users in October 2025, 84.2% of the population, and 79.0 million social media user identities. Zalo reported 78.3 million monthly active users. StatCounter puts Google at 92.99% of search engine use in Vietnam in September 2026. For a foreign brand, that means Vietnamese-language Google visibility, plus Zalo and Facebook, covers most of the market. Read our overview of digital marketing in Vietnam.
Our expert view: what foreign brands most often get wrong
In our view three mistakes are the most common. Translated pages that read like translations, which Vietnamese buyers notice immediately. Keywords chosen in English and translated literally, which miss how people actually search in Vietnamese. And no local trust signals: a Vietnamese address, local reviews, local phone and payment options. Each one is fixable, and each one costs enquiries until it is fixed.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a Vietnamese website to rank in Vietnam?
In most cases yes. Vietnamese customers search in Vietnamese, and pages written natively in Vietnamese perform far better than translations.
Can you report in English?
Yes. All plans and monthly reports are delivered in English for your head office.
Do you also run Google Ads in Vietnam?
Yes, alongside SEO, so you can get early enquiries while organic visibility grows.
Limits and honest expectations
Search engines and AI assistants change their answers over time and no one controls them. Results vary by industry, city and competition, and we do not guarantee a position, a mention or a number of leads. We show you what is measurable and report it plainly.
