We help global brands improve organic visibility and search performance on Baidu, China’s dominant search engine, through localised search optimisation, content strategy, technical SEO, authority building, and data-driven performance optimisation.
Baidu is the leading search engine in China with over 70 % search market share, making it essential for brands targeting Chinese consumers online.
Unlike Western engines like Google, Baidu requires Simplified Chinese content, local hosting considerations, and platform-specific strategies that align with Chinese search behaviour and ranking signals.
For brands entering China or engaging Chinese audiences internationally, Baidu SEO ensures your site can be discovered at high-intent moments of search interest.
Chinese consumers overwhelmingly rely on Baidu to search for information, brands, products, services, and local businesses.
Search behaviours include:
Users expect highly relevant, instantly useful search results – which is why ranking on Baidu requires search optimisation tuned to local language, context, and behaviour.
Ranking high on Baidu increases visibility, credibility, and brand recall – all of which influence consumer trust and eventual conversions.
Chinese users tend to trust organic search listings more than traditional ads, especially for research-oriented queries or product comparisons.
When your site appears in Baidu search results with trusted signals, relevant content, and clear answers, users are more likely to engage, explore, and convert.
While Baidu is most used in Mainland China, it also serves Chinese-speaking audiences in Australia, the USA, UK, Europe, Singapore, and Hong Kong.
Brands targeting overseas Chinese or global markets with Chinese language search campaigns benefit from Baidu visibility, particularly for categories like travel, education, beauty, FMCG, and retail.
A consistent Baidu SEO strategy supports both local Chinese e-commerce searches and global Chinese audience discovery.
We identify high-value Chinese search queries in Simplified Chinese and match them to commercial and informational intent, ensuring your content ranks where your audiences search.
We craft SEO-optimised Chinese content – including titles, headings, meta descriptions, and body copy – that aligns with Baidu’s ranking preferences and emphasises clarity, relevance, and user experience.
We optimise on-page signals (internal structure, semantic content, image SEO) and plan authority-building projects to support lasting organic strength.
We ensure fast load times, proper Chinese language markup, and a host strategy that improves crawlability and user experience on Baidu.
We help leverage Baidu properties like Baidu Baike, Baidu Zhidao, and Baidu Wenku to amplify authority and organic presence.
We support safe link building and partnerships aligned with Baidu’s quality guidelines to strengthen domain trust and relevance.
We track Baidu Webmaster Tools signals, indexation trends, and organic performance to understand what works and where to pivot.
We refine keywords, content, and structure based on real ranking and engagement feedback to improve performance over time.
We analyse competitor search behaviour and ranking metrics to identify opportunities and gaps.
We understand Chinese language search intent and how localisation affects ranking.
