PPC on Baidu is struggling<\/strong>: SEO is becoming the new trend!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Following recent scandals about China’s largest search engine, Baidu<\/a> had to follow the government\u2019s expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baidu had to revise much of its PPC<\/a> (Pay Per Click) offer. PPC has sponsored advertising on search engines. In short: You pay a (large) amount of money to show your website in the top searches by keywords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have made screenshots before and after the update of this new reform. Will you find the differences between the old and the new Baidu? Get ready!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baidu before the scandal: PPC Kingdom<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here are two screenshots made on May 20, 2016:<\/p>\n\n\n

As you can see in this first capture, the PPC results are omnipresent.<\/p>\n\n\n

This second screenshot reveals that the PPC results are also available in the right column.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The natural results appear only at the bottom of the capture. These natural results are displayed due to the work that has been done upstream by the SEO team of these sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baidu after the scandal: Rebirth of natural results (SEO)!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here are two screenshots dated May 30th<\/sup>, not long after the update wanted by the Chinese government.<\/p>\n\n\n

In this first screenshot, we see that Baidu adopts the same style of notification as his western brother Google. Thus, we see a small square in a slightly different color from the usual white. The top right of this framework can be distinguished by the Chinese characters \u5546\u4e1a \u63a8\u5e7f (Shangye Tuiguang). This corresponds to the space reserved for PPC ads. Baidu is now limited to 30% of PPC ads on its search results pages.<\/p>\n\n\n

In this second capture, we see very quickly that there is no more PPC location on the right column. Indeed, with the restriction that took effect, Baidu has not the right to dispose of PPC ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beneficial effect of these ads ordered by the government is that the natural results, which are the result of excellent work done by SEO experts, appear in a much better position, and a much better ranking. These naturally referenced websites are more easily accessible to Chinese netizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
