We send the customers. You watch them show up.
A free, permanent listing built to rank on Google and get cited by AI assistants — with every single lead we send you tracked from the moment you go live, claimed or not.
No credit card. No catch. Live in under five minutes.
Customers are asking Google — and now they're asking AI, too.
“Hmong restaurants near me.” “A Hmong-owned real estate agent in Minnesota.” Those searches happen constantly — and increasingly, the answer comes straight from an AI assistant before anyone even sees a list of links. If your business isn't built to be found by both, you're invisible for a question you already know the answer to.
That's the whole reason Hmong Network exists: to be the place both search engines and AI assistants already trust for this exact question — and to hand that trust straight to you.

From listed to found in four steps
No setup fees. No contracts to get started. Just a listing that works.
Get listed — free, forever
Search first, claim if you're already in — otherwise add your business in under five minutes. A standard listing never costs anything.
We get you found
Your listing goes live on optimized directory pages built to rank on Google and get cited by AI assistants — no extra work from you.
Every lead, counted
Views, phone taps, direction requests, website clicks — we start tracking the moment your listing goes live, whether you've claimed it yet or not.
Grow with our team
Once you can see the traffic we send, ask us to help you rank higher and put a real website behind it — SEO and web design, built by people who already got you found.
We don't just claim we send you traffic. We count it.
Most directories ask you to take their word for it. Hmong Network starts a real counter the moment your listing goes live — a view, a phone tap, a directions request, a click to your website. It's running right now on every live listing in the directory, whether or not the owner has ever signed in.
- Tracking starts on day one — claimed or unclaimed, verified or not.
- Every action is tied to your listing, never to a person — no names, no contact lists, ever sold.
- Claim your listing and the counter doesn't reset — you inherit everything already tracked.

Built for how people search now
This isn't a directory that bolted on SEO after the fact — it's the reason we exist.
Built for classic search
Every listing, category, and state page is a real, indexable page with its own optimized title, description, and schema — not a single-page app search engines struggle to crawl.
Built for AI answers
AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude increasingly answer “where can I find a Hmong ___ near me” directly — before anyone clicks a link. Your listing is structured to be the source they cite.
Readable by machines, not just people
Every public page publishes a clean Markdown twin and LocalBusiness/Article structured data, so AI crawlers get exact facts — hours, address, rating — instead of guessing from a rendered layout.
Open to the crawlers that matter
llms.txt and an MCP endpoint tell AI agents exactly what's here and how to query it — most business directories are invisible to this new class of crawler entirely.
An AI assistant on our own site
Visitors can ask our on-site assistant to find or compare businesses in plain language — proof we build for AI search, not just talk about it.
Verified data, not guesses
Claimed, verified listings carry a trust badge and owner-confirmed hours and contact info — the same accuracy signals that earn algorithmic trust from Google and AI systems alike.
Once you see the traffic, go further
The listing is free forever. When you're ready to rank higher and convert more of what we send you, our team builds that too.
SEO & AEO Audits
See exactly why customers — and AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude — might not be finding your business, scored across real technical and AI-citability signals.
Web Design & Digital Presence
A modern site, a real digital foundation, and a customer-acquisition system built around it — the same technology gap most Hmong-owned businesses are competing against.
Questions before you claim your listing
Is this actually free, or is there a catch?
A standard listing is free forever — that's not an introductory offer. We make money later, if you choose it, from optional paid visibility and from SEO/web design services. Being in the directory and being tracked never requires payment.
How can you track leads on a listing I haven't claimed yet?
The moment a listing is live, viewing it or tapping to call, get directions, or visit the website records a real event tied to that listing — not to an owner account. Claiming later doesn't start the counter; it just gives you a login to see what's already been counted.
What exactly counts as a “lead”?
Anyone who views your listing or takes an action on it — a phone tap, a directions request, a website click, a message started, a booking opened. Views are reach; everything else is someone actively trying to reach you.
Do you sell or share my customers' information?
No. We count actions, not identities — no names, no contact info, no browsing history is captured or sold. What you see is a number (“34 phone taps this month”), not a contact list.
My business isn't listed at all yet. Can I still start?
Yes — claiming and adding a new business go through the same flow. If we don't have you yet, you'll be live in minutes, and tracking starts from that moment.
What's the difference between the free listing and the paid services?
The listing, and everything it tracks, is free forever. SEO and web design are separate, optional services for businesses that want to go further once they've seen what the free traffic already looks like — no pressure to buy either one.
Your customers are already searching. Make sure they find you.
