Baidu Gives e-Commerce a Boost

Filed in archive Internet on July 10, 2009

China search engine Baidu is offering to help Japanese companies support e-commerce inside China, according to Asiajin. Baidu has had a Japanese version of it's search engine since 2007.

Asiajin sees the move as part of an effort to help Baidu compete in Japan with Yahoo and Google.
By the end of this month, Japanese companies will be offered a range of services, i.e. setting up China-friendly-websites or efficient advertising. Chinese customers will be able to pay via credit card or with Alipay, a payment system offered by Chinese e-commerce behemoth Alibaba.
I can't help but think that the growth of e-commerce for Japanese company will eventually push the door open further in China for everyone else. But I don't expect to see Baidu go after a chunk of the US Search market anytime soon.

Baiduis a Microsoft partner in China.
