It also has an online collaboratively-built encyclopedia (Baidu Baike), and a searchable keyword-based discussion forums. As of November 13 2007, it is ranked thirteen in Alexa’s internet rankings. In December, 2007 Baidu became the first company from China to be included in the NADSDAQ-100 index. Baidu provides an index of over 740 million web pages, 80 million images, and 10 million multimedia files.” ------------From Wikipedia&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.baidu.com/"&gt;Baidu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Baidu is not only a “tool”; it is a “window”, a “platform”. Through this “window”, people can see more beautiful views that never seen before. Through this platform, net surfers can enjoy better quality of the users’ experience. This can explain why the most Chinese people will stay for one minute after they get the search result.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Difference between Baidu and Google&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://blog.softtechvc.com/goog_20vs_20bidu.gif" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Most foreign experts was puzzled for Chinese internet market, why Google has more than half market share in the Unite States, but in China the market share is only 20%. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;According to North American standards, Google provide better user experience. However, In China, Baidu’s market share was 62%, and Google is 20%. The trend is not good for Google’s development. Most Chinese people choose Baidu; even Google is the more logical choice. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.globalbydesign.com/wp-content/uploads/blog/china_search_cnnic.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The difference is surfing habits. It is a completely different experience of using search engines between China and North America. Western people use the search engine as a tool, users in China to use it as a window to the Internet world. Chinese people will spend more time browsing search results. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Google values links, and relatively light headings, also some internal factors. Google also pay more attention to the official, public welfare, scientific research useful public utilities on website, it believed that non-commercial websites bring more contribution to the community. Baidu is different, it considered that type of site for website itself is the same; it just likes the principle of fairness.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Google focus on the concept of time, it believed that the longer operating time website had better credibility. Even for some website, it believed them unconditional. As our Chinese mind, it seems unbelievable. So some website had bad ranking at Google, perhaps Baidu will be favored. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Google is more relatively persistent, loyal. Google believe that the Internet is an indispensable tool and lifestyle for people and the acceptance of the new things is a bit clumsy. Baidu use the new things as soon as possible. In the search engine area, ranking frequently updated, on the other hand the more information to users. Baidu think: the internet in China at this stage is the entertainment tool. Google’s failure is not seen this fact, because China is not America.&lt;br /&gt;Google seems to me like a scholar, Baidu is a pure image of the businessman. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6669641921336456336-8412557077419695995?l=baiduvsgoogle-hanyu.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://baiduvsgoogle-hanyu.blogspot.com/feeds/8412557077419695995/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6669641921336456336&amp;postID=8412557077419695995' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6669641921336456336/posts/default/8412557077419695995'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6669641921336456336/posts/default/8412557077419695995'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://baiduvsgoogle-hanyu.blogspot.com/2008/03/baidu-is-leading-chinese-search-engine.html' title='What is Baidu?'/><author><name>Hanyu</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
