Revenues on Baidu come mainly from its search engine advertising services, which use pay-per-click (PPC) technology. Advertising on Baidu is similar to the use of Google Adwords and revolves around search engine optimization tools (SEO). As an advertiser, you can buy keywords, and yet four of the displayed search results have been selected for Google search results.
For a certified certificate on Baidu, companies must fulfill certain conditions. First of all, like the search engine, a Chinese website is required. In addition, Baidu requires foreign companies to submit a digital copy of the enterprise registration certificate issued by the government concerned to manage its account registration.

After getting certified, it is important to manage his Baidu campaign effectively, and locate the ads. Although this process is comparable to using Google AdWords. Having a Chinese website is essential because the search engine does not index many non-Chinese pages. In addition, hosting the site outside of China will place one at a disadvantage as these are ranked lower on the platform. Additionally, advertisers are seriously considering other integrated payment services like UnionPay and Alipay

30% of World 4G users are client at China Mobile

The Chinese telecommunications operator China Mobile, has just disclosed figures that seems mind-boggling, but that are indeed real. Since half a billion people in the world, have a package that gives them 4G at China Mobile.

 China Mobile recently announced that in 2016, more than 500 million customers (exactly 510 million customers) have a 4G package on the Chinese network. These 500 million customers therefore represent approximately 30% of the total 4G customers globally. A purely stratospheric figure. Already in October, China Mobile had 481 million customers in 4G. Nearly 200 million customers arrived between October and December. Thus, in addition to owning an extremely large customer base, the Chinese public company created in 1997, continues to attract customers. Not to mention that an announcement made in May 2016 indicated that the company had a total of more than 830 million customers.

Being thus, the largest mobile operator in the world. The figures of China Mobile mask a particular demographic and economic situation The mobile part of the group weighed almost 50% of turnover. While indicating that the Chinese group targeted the figure of 540 million phones sold in China for next year. And among these 540 million phones, 400 million will be compatible with 4G. We have not finished hearing about China Mobile. It remains to be seen whether the company will then pursue development outside the domestic market. However this figure should be put into perspective as the Chinese market is much less open than the Western or Japanese markets. This naturally opens the way for the company based in the Chinese capital, which can benefit from the very large base of potential customers, which includes China with more than a billion inhabitants recorded in the year 2013.

Alibaba turnover $12.05 billion for 2016


E-Commerce in China is 41 billion Market

E-Commerce behemoth Alibaba will top market for digital advertising in China in 2016, surpassing the current leader Baidu amid tighter regulation of internet advertising that will likely put a dent in the total income. Growth "robust" mobile advertising Alibaba is expected to increase digital advertising revenues of the company, according to a report from eMarketer




He estimates Alibaba will take a share of 28.9 percent by digital advertising revenues in China in 2016, compared with 24.8 percent the previous year, and predicted from Albaba turnover to US $ 12.05 billion, in a national expenditure of US $ 41660000000. Baidu, the leader of last year with a market share of 28 percent, is expected to see its revenue grow by 0.3 percent to $ 8.87 billion, giving it a 21.3 percent of the market. difficult in recent months of Baidu are blamed in part on the high-profile death of a student with cancer who attempted an experimental therapy on cancer, he found advertised on Baidu. Baidu is under fire for selling lists bidders without adequately verify their claims. Tighter Internet advertising rules issued which came into force in early September by the Chinese government in the wake of the incident would have a negative impact on Baidu, said eMarketer analyst Miss Shum.


Advertising in China 

They now require Internet advertising to be clearly identified as such, with risk warnings attached to the paid results. Advertising on search engines should also make up 30 percent of the results presented on a page. "The increased regulations on Internet advertising should weigh heavily on Baidu's search revenue in the short term as they roll out higher standards for all advertisers," said grateful Shum.While companies such as Alibaba are also likely be affected by the stricter rules, Shum said revenue from its mobile advertising business, however, "shows no sign of reflux," as mobile usage continues to grow. Alibaba, which owns the South China Morning Post, was made to a mobile concerted effort, and last month revealed that the earnings of mobile orders has now exceeded those of PCs. "The expenses of advertisement in China continues to move quickly to digital formats including mobile formats such as more time is spent on mobile devices," said Shum, a trend that should continue in the coming years, as the services are available online through mobile applications.

"We see more dollars to offset announcements of traditional media, such as television and print, mobile and digital to," said eMarketer analyst forecasts Shelleen Shum. "This is driven by an increasing share of young consumers Internet-savvy spending more than the older generation. Slower economic growth also caused advertisers to look more closely at advertising budgets, some preferring to spend more on targeted digital uses. "

Collectively, Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent will take 72.8% of mobile ad Internet market in China in 2016. eMarketer predicts Alibaba will continue to claim the largest share of advertising revenues of the mobile Internet in China, 9160000000 taking $ million in 2016, for growth of 54.8% last year.

Jack ma reflects the Booming e-Commerce field in China



With some trepidation, I ran to Hangzhou few days ago. No, I am no longer part of the Group of 20 processes, which has left the government a few years ago. But the G-20 Hangzhou gave me pause as to whether it was the best time to visit (luckily, my concerns were misplaced as the city continued to function quite well even with the additional security checks).

Who is Jack Ma ?


My trip was just one of our "health check" regular calls with the leadership of Alibaba, from senior management to account representatives, reviewing marketing plans, looking choose day, talking about new brands launch in China and collegiality and general. And the G-20 proved a bit of luck, because it offers a good opportunity to explore with Chinese officials, as well as with the leadership of Alibaba what they hoped to achieve in Hangzhou and what developments G-20 could mean for companies as seen in China. The G-20 resulted in both successes and successes background message for business. a first look at the substance:

The process of the G-20 is a series of cabinet-level and technical meetings, culminating in a summit of 20 world leaders, which are randomly generated out ways to stimulate the global economy sluggish, build an open financial system and coordinate the monetary policies of one year.

e-Commerce in China!


But a funny thing happened on the way to the top. It seems that was not the only person with the idea to check with Alibaba. Several international delegations made side trips to Alibaba, where they were given tours of the campus headquarters and where several trade agreements signed with e-commerce company. In the space of a few days, Jack Ma, CEO of Alibaba, welcomed the G-20 Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, PM Australian Malcolm Turnbull and Indonesian President Joko Widodo as well as director WTO, Roberto Azevedo, among others. Some might find that world leaders with crowded schedules find the time to schmooze with a Chinese company that is not particularly well known in the West, despite the claim that Alibaba is the largest retail company in the world.

But his interest can be easily explained by two statistics: it is estimated that world trade will grow at a weak 2.8 percent in 2016; It is expected that retail e-commerce sales worldwide to grow about 24 percent this year.

The growth of e-Commerce in China! 


In short, e-commerce is where the growth is explained this website for furniture in China. More than this, cutting deals that promise greater access to Chinese consumers via e-commerce is an intelligent game for politicians seeking to boost the economy of their respective countries. Also a smart move by China in its efforts to open its economy. In recent days, Russia and Canada announced they were opening e-commerce "flags" in shopping websites Alibaba, Australia signed a cooperation agreement with Alibaba while Renzi of Italy visited the promotion of Italian wine before an upcoming promotion wines and spirits online Tmall Alibaba market.

The opportunity is clear for Alibaba 

 Household consumption in China exceeds 60 percent of GDP and will continue to increase as the transition from export-led to consumption-led economy. A major driver of this transformation is electronic commerce, which is increasing the range of options available to Chinese consumers while reducing costs and accelerate delivery, according to a recent article in the Japan Times. As a result, online retail sales in China have soared from 6.3 percent of total retail sales in 2012 to over 20 percent in 2016. In 2020, 40 percent of all transactions retail in China can be conducted online. This is not the only reason Alibaba was a stopover to visit G20 leaders-and this brings us to the point message.

The theme of the summit this year is the construction of an innovative, invigorated the economy, an interconnected world and inclusive objective becomes one of the cross-Jack Ma. Ma wants to use Internet technology to make the world what e-commerce has done for China, streamlining supply chains, eliminating intermediaries, avoiding bureaucracy and thus allowing small businesses to efficiently reach the customers worldwide source. It is not surprising that the G-20 named president Ma of its Working Group of affiliated SME Development, an advisory group G20. This allows Ma to defend the idea of ​​inclusive globalization, for which the main idea is the Global Platform for Electronic Commerce (eWTP), which combines Internet technology with open trade policy. The goal is to level the playing field for SMEs worldwide, in the process of acceleration of a powerful engine for job creation and stimulate economic development in countries that have not seen the fruits of globalization. That is a message that the G-20 has certainly heard during his encounters with Ma. And perhaps one worth paying attention to what the search for new drivers to mark global growth. Unfortunately, the world is at a point where the loudest voices seem to be protectionist and hostility to trade. Ma eWTP initiative reminds us that more trade means greater prosperity. And e-commerce can lead the way.

Wechat the new gate to Social Commerce in China

Wechat the new gate to Social Commerce in China


Social media and e-commerce have converged on smartphones in China, thanks to an innovative application. Since its launch in 2011, WeChat has grown from a messaging client to WhatsApp true style in a single window for managing lifestyle. Without leaving the application, loyal users of WeChat - whose number is fast approaching one billion - you can book an appointment with your doctor, ask for a taxi, and buy products directly from manufacturers. At least one of every five users WeChat has linked to your debit or credit, a potential bonanza of cash of which Mark Zuckerberg, can only dream of.



Wechat a Content Social Networks !


Like most professionals in the continent, his mother used instead WeChat email to conduct much of their business. The application offers everything from video calls and group chats instant news updates and easy sharing of large multimedia files. It has a service oriented similar to slack US business chat. Yu Hui's mother also uses your smartphone camera to scan QR codes WeChat people (Quick Response) who knows much more often these days than swapping business cards. Yu Hui's father uses the application to do online shopping, to pay for goods in physical stores, settle utility bills and tabs dinner with friends split, with only a few taps. He can easily book and pay for taxis, ball mass deliveries, theater tickets, hospital appointments and holidays abroad, all without having to leave the WeChat universe.

As an equity investor puts US venture, WeChat is there "at each point of their daily contact with the world, from morning till night." This state is the center of all Internet activity, and as a platform through which users find their way to other services, which inspires Silicon Valley companies, including Facebook, to closely monitor WeChat. They are entitled to cast an envious eye. People who divide their time between China and the West complain that WeChat leaving behind is like stepping back in time. Among its services, is perhaps their promise of a cashless economy, a recurring dream of the Internet age, which impresses viewers more. Thanks to WeChat, Chinese consumers can navigate their day without spending once banknotes or pulling plastic. It is the best example of how China is shaping the future of mobile Internet to consumers around the world.

This is logical, for China manufactures and put to good use more smartphones than any other country. More Chinese access the Internet through their mobile phones than they do in the United States, Brazil and Indonesia combined. Many jumped from the pre-web era directly to the mobile Internet, bypassing the entire personal computer. About half of all sales over the Internet in China takes place through mobile phones, compared to about one third of total sales in America. In other words, conditions were all there for WeChat to take flight: new technologies, business models built around mobile phones, and above all, customers eager to experience. It's just a matter of time before this functionality, or something, is the norm worldwide. Now it's time for brands to begin to prepare for a future in which social media will not only be a place in the market, but also an important market in itself. Our recent work, "The use and value of information on the social network in the selective sale" describes how, unlike the current paradigm of e-commerce, selling social media will prosper no transparency and accessibility, but in strategic exclusivity.

selective sale : it works on Wechat


the media, most avid users include those who get pleasure from the envy of their peers. Facebook, Instagram and others offer a myriad of ways to show off, flaunting the latest designer handbag social concern advertising through a charitable donation announced publicly. That's why luxury companies like LVMH have seen a huge increase in the use of social media among buyers of exclusive products, limited edition, especially in the key growth markets of India and China. Naturally, LVMH has begun using social media to identify and market to customers who likes one changing her friends. Theoretically, this select group of customers - if they could be identified - would jump at the opportunity to buy a product designed just for them. So far, however, efforts by LVMH in what we call "selective sale" have been hampered by the disordered information gathering and the huge volume of data available. The seamless integration of electronic media and social commerce represented by WeChat could be the solution. Some companies are already beginning to exploit the possibilities - for example, Tiffany & Co. uses his official account WeChat to refine customer segmentation. Hitting the bull's-eye will depend on the ability of a brand to identify which customers, for all of your social media, are the objectives of greater value to the selective sale. That is where our research.

Knowing your customers


In our study, we used mathematical models to reproduce the typical behavior of social media followers who like to show off. We also take into account the fact that companies differ in how much they know about their customers on social networks. Some know nothing or almost nothing. But there are two types of information that are useful: the degree of connection (ie, how many friends have each client) and the degree to which each client participates in a consumerist superiority (researchers call this "visibility"). totally uninformed companies obviously can not participate in any segmentation; Companies that have one or both types of information clients can use all available data to target customer cure.

Try different combinations produced a couple of interesting general principles. First, the most popular guests were not the high value of the majority. Fully informed companies did better when targeting customers with a high level of visibility and an intermediate number of followers: high enough for purchasing touch off the effect desired envy, but not so high as to reduce the novelty of product - and, by extension, its value in the game of competitive consumption - too.

Second, not all customer information is the same. It was found that knowing how many friends have every customer is much more valuable than knowing his propensity to show social media. Both types of information are better than no information, but information visibility add any value to companies who already knew the extent of social networking connections of its customers. In addition, information visibility value added amounted to between two and six percent gains in profits, while connection information presented increased profits ranging from five to 30 percent.

What Chinese customers want


The difference in value between the two types of information highlights another general principle of social means of collecting information. Information is always less valuable when describing aspects of customer behavior that align directly with business goals. In this case, the customers' own actions can compensate for lack of knowledge - the most prolific conceited are not shy about showing you what they are. They happily eligible for a program of selective sales, assuming the marketing campaign were strong in most other respects. In fact, the company can design appropriate systems that have self-selection in the relevant segments of customers.

Privacy concerns




The use of a collection process more demanding information, rather than a data dump, helps companies avoid conflict with the privacy issues that are likely to continue increasing as e-commerce and social networks They are become more intertwined. The advent of WeChat announces the transformation of social networks in digital main streets, where products can be found and displayed in an uninterrupted sequence of clicks. Looking ahead, brands will have to cultivate a neighborhood intimacy and trust with your customer base. That means that e-commerce will become more dependent on tactics adapted as selective selling, and less on off-the-rack approach.

Wat Chinese consumer they buying online ? #ecommerce

What Chinese consumer they buying online ? 


 We found that consumers are generally more selective in their spending. They allocate more of their income on services and lifestyle of the half-plane more experiments to spend more on leisure and entertainment (50 percent increase in revenue at the box office last year is just an indicator of this tendency). Meanwhile, spending on food and beverages for domestic consumption is stagnant or even in decline. Chinese consumers are increasingly trading from mass products to high-end products: we found that 50 percent are now seeking the best and most expensive offering, a significant increase over previous years



High End consumption in China ! 


. It is therefore not surprising that the growth of high-end segment is faster than the mass segment and value, and foreign brands still hold a leading position in this high-end market. Moreover, an increasing proportion of Chinese consumers focus on a few brands, and some are more faithful to the simple marks. The number of consumers willing to switch to a brand outside of their "short list" fell sharply. In clothing, for example, the number of consumers willing to consider a brand they had not before fallen about 40 percent in 2012 to just under 30 percent in 2015.
Be part of the closed set of the few brands that consumers consider or even a brand that consumers prefer, is increasingly difficult. Fewer consumers are open to new brands and promotions become less effective to encourage consumers to consider. A few notable exceptions, such as the increasing share of premium-smartphone market Huawei, Chinese brands have not gained much traction in many high-end segments, such as skin care, cars, sports and fashion. This contrasts sharply with the mass market segment, where local brands are gaining market share among foreign owners by offering a much stronger proposition of the product.

The Five Biggest Challenges to Doing Business in China


Kent Kedl, greater China and north Asia managing director for global risk consultancy Control Risks, stopped by Asia Society Studios in New York recently to discuss common problems related to doing business in China.

"As business people, our goal is to reduce complexity," Kedl said. "We want to reduce risk by understanding the complexity and then packaging it up so we can identify it. China resists that at every turn."

In the video embedded above, Kedl breaks down the five biggest challenges he sees businesses struggle with in China:

1. Understanding why you're doing business in China in the first place.
2. Learning how to deal with a lack of information.
3. Figuring out the "story behind the story."
4. Being aware of the role of the government.

5 steps to start my Digital marketing in China

5 tips to start an effective Marketing campaign in China 


 1- Understand Chinese culture Like Serpenza



If a proposal is not realistic or business, many Western companies see China at one time or another in order to enter the market and making large sums of money. At least that's the theory.




China is a huge country with lots of increasingly aware of brands and products (actually) Western people. This is the prize that many Western brands are seeking and why many are already in China trying to establish its position in the market. For those involved in the marketing and digital marketing, in particular, China presents a whole different set of challenges: consumers behave differently, vendors use different styles of pitching and even how many products are paid by consumers is very different than in Western markets. In addition, China is home to a large number of Internet companies with unfamiliar names that have an almost unbelievable number of users. Obviously, companies seeking to develop their brands in China must adopt different approaches to the development of their brands.

Media in China, use them to build trust 


The appearance of the features is the complicated relationship highly censored media of China, the state has with major social networks in the world. Facebook and Twitter are technically banned in China, but almost unknown to 640 million Internet users in the country. In the features, Xinhua English screenshots typically provides messages of social media on China. These messages usually come high media profile Western media as the New York Times (which is blocked in China), the Wall Street Journal (ditto), CNN or BBC. Taken together, these highlights of the news are usually as boring as own coverage for China Xinhua. The posts are cherry-picked to show how foreign media represents China as a stable nation with a competent management ready to handle your unique challenges. Take, for example, it has been further highlighted by the BBC.
The starting point for Western companies is to understand where your brand (s) has an advantage over indigenous products and service providers. In general, Western brands (especially the luxury market) have high levels of reliability and perceived authenticity and unfortunately for many consumers, high tarrifs as well. This image of reliability and authenticity account of much interest in Western brands. This applies both B2C and B2B markets. So given these perceptions, many digital marketers need to find ways to amplify these feelings and reach a large group (target).



Social Networks in China 





The social web is an excellent channel to emphasize these attributes. But if there is no web presence, or the presence does not meet the cultural and commercial expectations, it can be extremely damaging to the brand value.

Wechat do you know this App? 

Check this article 

If you are looking into developing your business in China, your strategy should definitely include a well-though digital strategy. One of the biggest social media platforms in China is WeChat. I will now give you in this article 20 tips to use WeChat the best way possible.
Create an official account First thing to do is to create a WeChat account. You can easily subscribe to a normal “personal” account by downloading the app, filling in the form and verifying your account with the code they sent you by text. This kind of account is very limited and won’t allow you to create an audience for your brand. What you should do instead is go on create an official account by visiting the WeChat official website and fill in an Official Registration form.




This is because the Chinese use the web for purchases more than their counterparts elsewhere investigation. They like the content heavy websites, and often are beyond the results of the first search page. And the absence of a web site indicates a company with no credibility. You must have a website, although it is simple to be taken seriously in China. This axiom is amplified by the fact that Chinese consumers tend to be skeptical of "official" comments and product classifications, rather than relying on what other consumers have written around the web.


Your Website and Search Engine like Baidu 

Some key points in its strategy of Chinese website - not just add Mandarin pages to a Web site Western. The pages will not be visible in Chinese search engines (like Baidu and Qihoo). Therefore, it is necessary to have a micro-site located built from scratch with the habits of Chinese browser, design standards and its Chinese character consumer in mind.

SEO in China is difficult 

For better accessibility and SEO, hosting your website within China or look through a content delivery network (CDN) having nodes in China. Note - if you host your site in China will have an ICP license required by the Chinese government for all business websites, but getting one is a matter of formality and takes 8 weeks.
