Digital marketing for exporters selling to Southeast Asia
Southeast Asia is a group of very different markets. Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, Singapore and Malaysia each have their own language, platforms and buying habits.
Google is the main search engine across most of the region, while buying conversations often move to Facebook, WhatsApp, LINE in Thailand or Zalo in Vietnam. Marketplaces such as Shopee and Lazada matter for products sold in volume.
We pick two or three priority countries first, build a website that supports English plus the local language, and run search and social campaigns sized to those markets, instead of spreading a small budget across the whole region.
How buyers search and connect
- Google drives most search demand across the region
- Facebook and TikTok build awareness, WhatsApp closes conversations
- LINE in Thailand and Zalo in Vietnam are local messaging essentials
- Shopee and Lazada matter for product sourcing and comparison
What we adapt
- English plus local-language pages for priority countries
- Country-specific keyword and platform plans
- Messaging contacts matched to each country
- A phased rollout starting with two or three markets

↗Southeast Asia: common questions
Should I target all of Southeast Asia at once?
No. Budgets go further when you start with two or three countries, learn what converts, and then extend.
Do I need local-language pages?
For most B2B products, English works for first contact in places like Singapore and Malaysia. Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam usually need local-language pages to compete.
Can you also help with Malaysia?
Yes, Malaysia has its own plan because of its English, Malay and Chinese-speaking audiences. See our Malaysia page.
