Seo and ads for Baidu (china)
-
Has anyone have experience doing seo for the baidu search engine? I have a client who wants to target businesses in china so we are exploring options for PPC and SEO. Any ideas or tips would be much appreciated?
I was thinking of getting a bi-lingual mini-site made that would catch leads from seo and ads. Can anyone suggest any chinese PPC/seo freelancers?

Looks like "china seo" and "baidu" are hot topics right now!

WOW there are 916 views on this topic? Weird. Anybody know why?? I'm very curious.

Hi Josh,
I manage a Chinese language website (www.kungfuenglish.com). I share the sentiments of the other responders who have suggested you host the site on a local server. In our experience, having a regular .com domain has not been a problem for us.
For the China SEO Service, I've been very happy with the service provided by Ryan and his team at www.chineseseoshifu.com.

Hi Joshua,
I'm probably too late, but I still wanted to add my 2 cents. To do PPC on Baidu, you need to be a registered company in China and show them a copy of your business licence. This is why it is quite difficult to apply for a Baidu account if you are outside of China.
As far as SEO is concerned it might be also difficult to rank for competitive keywords. There are some differences between optimizing your site for Baidu, compared to Google.
Finally, if you want to have a chinese version of your site, you'd better host it in China and use a .cn name for loading time reasons but also to make sure your site will not be blocked in China.
Hope this helps.

Hello,
I live in CHina and work as SEO here, but regarding the BAIDU search engine...
I heard that you can buy ranks literally.
Most of the companies I know here is SEO about Google, because normally my chinese website get ranks for yahoo ( http://www.yahoo.cn/ ) , and google hk ( www.google.hk )

Can Google Shopping Ads Lower Ranking due to Bounce?
I am noticing Google Shopping Ads are showing up for really irrelevant keywords on some of my products. This quite predictably causes a high bounce rate when a user comes from these ads. There is very little control over what Google Ads seems to decide are relevant keywords from what I can see. Only control is by viewing search terms and setting as negative keywords, but his doesn't help much. Negative keywords are often ignored or they come up with some other really irrelevant new keyword. Seems this high bounce rate could hurt ranking? Any experiences shared with Google Shopping ads appreciated!

Put AdWords mobile ads in separate Campaign or AdGroup?
We want to ramp up traffic from the segment "Mobile with Full Browser" under enhanced campaigns in Google AdWords. Our Google rep said that it would be best to do this from within the same campaign. We're contemplating pulling the mobile traffic conversion effort out into its own campaign in order to more easily track performance. Background: We bid down traffic from "Mobile with Full Browser" to -100% because initially it performed poorly. We've improved our mobile experience and we want to try again. We're contemplating building mobile versions of our current ads using the AdWords functionality that does this, and watching how the mobile ads and the segment "Mobile with Full Browser" responds this time. Separate campaign or from within the same campaign. What would you do? Thanks,

Have you used an ad network other than Google Adwords?
We received a cold call from a company called Division-D. They make a lot of promises which sound good (but that's what marketers do 🙂 ). Advertising on a non-Google network probably would have fewer restrictions than an Adwords campaign and they say that they are fully transparent. Would it be worth it to listen to their whole pitch?

Does anyone do SEO for a % of sales?
I am the CEO of a small company ( 33 employees in Jacksonville, FL ) We have a family of websites that sell office products - we are the manufacture we have a staff of 3 in the website dept - but with 10 active sites its alot of work. We are launching a new site this week and need to do some SEO for the site .. Since this new site has no sales - i want to see if there is someone that will work based on a % of sales - say 10% of sales for 18 months - Here are my thoughts : Option A: - go out and get a "package" for say $5000 and have SEO done and hope it proves results Option B: - partner with someone and give them 10% of sales the site produces - so if we can grow it to $1M in sales - that person could make $100K off the site - ( our competition is a $20M + site) Some would say that im crazy and it might cost me $100K -i like it because we are all on the same page and i pay for results - not promises. Thoughts?
