Executive summaryHigh confidence

VTV24 cements its position as a leading news channel through humane tribute content and urgent public safety alerts

  • Analysis of data from 323 posts shows VTV24 achieving very large overall engagement (more than 3.6 million engagements), led by posts honouring the sacrifice of soldiers and emergency service guidance for the public.
  • However, the page shows a clear performance gap between formats: single photos have the highest median performance, well ahead of video and Reels.
  • The main limitation of this dataset is the very high share of unknown demographic information, which makes it hard to build an accurate reader profile.

01 · Positioning & voiceWhat the Page says, and how it says it

An official national news channel with a deep emotional connection to everyday life

ObservationHigh confidence
Data observation

VTV24 positions itself as Vietnam Television's most trusted news source on social media, skilfully combining accuracy and official standing with poetry, folk metaphors and urgent alerts that bear directly on people's daily lives.

Strategic implication

This approach removes the dryness typical of a state news channel, turning editorial news into accessible content and driving strong organic sharing.

"Họ đã sống và chết Giản dị và bình tâm Không ai nhớ mặt đặt tên Nhưng họ đã làm nên Đất Nước." (Trích Đất Nước - Nguyễn Khoa Điềm)

Translation: ""They lived and died Simply and calmly No one remembers their faces or names But they made the Nation." (From "Đất Nước" - Nguyễn Khoa Điềm)"

This requires an editorial team with sharp judgement to use humorous metaphors tastefully and avoid causing offence on serious legal topics.

Formal and reverent when honouring and commemorating heritage

ObservationHigh confidence
Data observation

For historical anniversaries, the loss of heroes or diplomatic events of national symbolic importance, the language is carefully refined, poetic and deeply respectful.

Strategic implication

This reinforces its standing as an official national outlet and builds a lasting set of shared values for the community.

Xin kính cẩn nghiêng mình tiễn biệt hai người con của Tổ quốc! 🕊🇻🇳🕯

Translation: "We bow our heads in respectful farewell to two sons of the Fatherland!"

Emoji should be chosen carefully so as not to undermine the solemnity of the content.

02 · Content pillarsThe themes the Page returns to

Emergency alerts and public safety
Pillar 1Emergency alerts and public safety

Visual coverage of urgent natural disasters and urban incidents that directly affect people's safety.

Social watchdog coverage of failings in public life
Pillar 2Social watchdog coverage of failings in public life

Cases directly involving scandals in public healthcare and education services attract an exceptionally high volume of discussion and critical comments.

03 · What worksThe content that drives engagement

Tributes to heroes and fallen soldiers stir patriotism and deep empathy

ObservationHigh confidence
Data observation

Posts announcing a sacrifice or honouring acts of courage in protecting the public achieve huge engagement and lead the whole page.

Strategic implication

Keep this human-interest stream as a core pillar to sustain public respect, affection and brand credibility.

CHÍNH THỨC Bộ Chỉ huy Quân sự tỉnh Hưng Yên xác nhận đã tìm thấy thi th.ể Thiếu tá Trần Văn Tùng.

Translation: "OFFICIAL The Hưng Yên Provincial Military Command confirmed that the body of Major Trần Văn Tùng has been found."

This appeal comes from urgent news value and readers' sincere gratitude; the tragic angle should not be commercialised or over-exploited.

Public service hotline information triggers strong community sharing

ObservationHigh confidence
Data observation

The post launching the domestic violence prevention hotline received record shares thanks to its direct practical value for the community.

Strategic implication

When communicating social policy or public services, design visuals that highlight the hotline number and short instructions to maximise shares.

Translation: "Launch of the 117 national hotline for domestic violence prevention and control"

Only public services that offer urgent protection or practical support are likely to trigger similarly high share rates.

04 · What does not workContent that fails to land

Macro-level administrative planning content has the lowest engagement

HypothesisMedium confidence
Data observation

The post on the planning proposal for Hoàn Kiếm Lake with a 100-year vision drew a muted community response compared with other content.

Strategic implication

Reframe macro news by posing visual discussion questions and highlighting the direct impact of planning on people's daily lives.

Hà Nội lấy ý kiến phương án quy hoạch hồ Gươm và vùng phụ cận tầm nhìn 100 năm

Translation: "Hanoi seeks public input on the planning proposal for Hoàn Kiếm Lake and surrounding areas with a 100-year vision"

Because this dataset contains few planning stories, the performance of other transport or economic planning news needs further checking.

Median performance of Video and Reels is well below single photos

ObservationHigh confidence
Data observation

Although Video and Reels account for a fairly large number of posts, the median engagement of Video (3,086.5) and Reels (2,663) is much lower than that of Photo (6,962).

Strategic implication

Review the hook structure, length or thumbnail design of Video/Reels to better capture readers who scroll quickly through the feed.

These engagement figures are cumulative at the time of data collection; video may need a longer distribution period than photos to accumulate organic engagement.

05 · AudienceWho engages with the Page

Male readers clearly dominate among identified profiles

ObservationHigh confidence
Data observation

Among engaging user profiles with an identified gender, men (6,519) significantly outnumber women (3,920).

Strategic implication

The page could test more in-depth analysis on economics, military affairs, technology or sports, topics that typically attract male readers.

The unknown-gender group is extremely large (15,375), so this identified group is only a relative reference and does not fully represent the page's overall followers.

Young readers aged 25-34 in Hanoi lead engagement frequency

ObservationHigh confidence
Data observation

The 25-34 age group makes up the clear majority of profiles with an identified age (690/1,072 profiles), and users from Hanoi (2,335) far outnumber those from other cities.

Strategic implication

Content should weave in elements close to the lifestyles, habits and pressing urban issues of young office workers in the Hanoi area.

Profiles with unknown age (24,742) dominate, so this conclusion may be skewed when the analysis is scaled up.

06 · OpportunitiesWhat is worth testing next

Improve video and Reels formats to unlock untapped engagement potential

HypothesisMedium confidence
Data observation

Although Video and Reels account for a large number of posts, their median performance is currently the lowest on the page (Video: 3,086.5; Reels: 2,663).

Strategic implication

Move human-interest stories and public safety alerts into short video (< 60s), using fast editing with a visual hook in the first 3 seconds to improve viewer retention.

Changing formats requires a test period of at least 14 days for Facebook's algorithm to adjust its distribution audience.

07 · Action planIf we ran this Page

P10–7 daysEffort: low

Standardise an infographic format for natural disaster, emergency and public service alert posts.

Given the strong success of the 117 hotline post and the tropical depression update, readers show a very high need to save and share useful rescue-related content.

Goal
Increase the organic share rate on emergency posts.
KPI
Average shares of public safety alert posts.
Success when
Share rate of alert posts increases by at least 20% compared with the previous period's average.
P28–30 daysEffort: medium

Rework the editing of macro policy and planning content into opinion poll questions aimed at young readers.

The weak engagement of the Hoàn Kiếm Lake planning post shows that one-way administrative reporting does not attract social media readers.

Goal
Increase discussion and engagement on planning policy topics.
KPI
Comments on planning posts.
Success when
Each planning post reaches at least 500 comments.
P38–30 daysEffort: medium

Restructure short video (Reels) design around positive stories of good people and good deeds.

Stories of overcoming hardship and tributes to bravery receive very high engagement as single photos, while the Reels format overall has a very low median performance.

Goal
Improve the median engagement of the Reels format.
KPI
Median engagement of the Reels format.
Success when
Reels median engagement rises from 2,663 to above 4,000.

Suggested experiment (A/B test)

Hypothesis

Simplifying planning headlines by adding a question that invites young people's personal opinions may double the number of comments compared with traditional administrative reporting.

Variant AKeep the traditional news headline: "Hanoi seeks public input on the planning proposal for Hoàn Kiếm Lake and surrounding areas with a 100-year vision".
Variant BTurn it into a direct engagement question: "If the Hoàn Kiếm Lake plan changes, what would you most like to see preserved? Share your view!".
Primary KPI: Comment countWindow: 7 daysWins if: Variant B achieves clearly more comments than Variant A, with clear statistical significance.
A specific planning story may carry different levels of sensitivity or natural interest depending on geography.

08 · LimitationsWhat this data cannot tell us yet

Data limitations

  • The data includes no reader comment text (comments_read: 0), so attitudes and actual sentiment towards hot-button stories cannot be analysed in depth.
  • Profiles with unknown age (24,742/25,814) and unknown location (17,092/25,814) overwhelmingly dominate, limiting demographic assessments to a very small sample.
  • Only 12 of the period's 323 posts were analysed in detail, which may not reflect all of the page's secondary content streams.

Data still needed

  • User comment text to run detailed sentiment analysis, especially on posts that spark heavy debate.
  • Detailed performance reports by posting time slot to determine whether posting time affects engagement across formats.
  • Complete statistics on viewer retention rate and average watch time for Video and Reels.
