Backlinks and sponsored articles — Vietnam

162 sites from €44 excl. VAT: median authority 27, median traffic 1 k visits per month. Dofollow links, secure payment, guaranteed publication.

Vietnam is one of Southeast Asia's most active digital markets, and its local web is a practical target for brands that want to reach Vietnamese-speaking audiences. LinkBooster currently lists 151 Vietnamese sites across all topics, which makes it possible to compare options before committing. This page explains what to expect, how to choose and how much to plan for.

Why backlinks from Vietnamese sites matter

A link from a locally published site sends a clear geographic and linguistic signal. If you sell to Vietnamese users, or want your content to surface in Vietnamese-language searches, links from sites that publish for that audience are more relevant than generic international ones. They can also bring referral visits from readers who already trust the publication.

For brands working across several markets, Vietnamese links fit into a wider plan. Our guide on international SEO and backlinks explains how to balance a profile across countries, so that no single market looks artificial.

What the Vietnamese catalogue looks like

The market is heavily weighted toward young, modest sites. Of the 151 sites, 92 have an authority score between 0 and 19, 16 sit between 20 and 29, 15 between 30 and 39, 21 between 40 and 59, and only 7 reach 60 or more. The median authority is 27, and 28% of sites score 30 or higher. Median organic traffic is 739 visits per month, and 97% of links are dofollow.

In practice, strong sites exist but they are a minority, so filtering matters. If your subject is specific, start with a themed list such as news and media backlinks in Vietnam, tech and IT, business and entrepreneurship or finance and investing. Entertainment and lifestyle brands can look at games and entertainment or health and wellness.

How to choose a site and plan your budget

Prices include the article, excluding VAT. They start at 44 €, the median is 269 €, and the most powerful 10% of sites begin at 747 €. A sensible approach is to mix a few mid-range placements with some stronger ones, rather than spending the whole budget on a single prestigious site.

Check four points before ordering: topical fit with your page, real organic traffic rather than authority alone, the language of the site's content, and the editorial quality of existing articles. Metrics are only indicators, and our comparison of Trust Flow, Domain Authority and DR shows how to read them. For a broader view of costs, see the guide to backlink prices and link value.

Mistakes to avoid

The most common error is choosing purely on a low price. Sites that exist only to sell links, with unrelated topics and no real readers, add little and can carry risk; learn to spot PBNs and link farms before you buy. Another mistake is publishing an article in a language or subject that does not match your page, or repeating the same exact-match anchor everywhere.

Write content that is genuinely useful to Vietnamese readers, vary your anchors and spread orders over time. If you want to see the process end to end, sponsored articles on verified media are a good starting point.
