SEO (Search Engine Optimization) in China

Increase your visibility in Chinese search engine via SEO 

In contrast to the western world, providers like Google are (almost) not present in China. On one side they are blocked, on the other side local search engines like Baidu, with a market share of over 70%, are simply technically better able to understand and index Chinese content.

Even though many mechanisms in SEO are basically similar, there are important aspects for the Chinese market in general and Baidu in particular that must be taken into account for successful SEO.

For example, the search engine prioritises Chinese websites in simplified Chinese, which are also hosted in China if possible due to the “Greater Firewall”, as otherwise they will have a noticeable loss of speed. This is particularly annoying for the mobile use, which is very widespread among the Chinese, and is therefore detrimental to both SEO and usability.

Similar to Google, Baidu also offers its own services (properties), which are, however, integrated more intensively in the search engine results. These include, for example, services similar to the western Wikipedia or Slideshare. Baidu also generates most of its income through ads, but displays them much more frequently and thus even displaces top SEO positions. Further examples are the high image load, the strong integration of rich snippets and the internal website trust system.
