Soso the Chinese search engine becomes large traffic driver

by Murray on December 6, 2009

Soso china’s largest search engine has suddenly picked me up and started to become a significant traffic driver today.

I am showing up for the term parcelforce, presumably this is people sending Christmas presents.
Doing some research

“There are 2 major classifications of Chinese search engines: Traditional and Simplified which are based on different dialects of the Chinese language.

SIMPLIFIED CHINESE LANGUAGE SEARCH ENGINES (CHARSET=GB2312)
primarily used in China PR, Singapore and Malaysia
TRADITIONAL CHINESE LANGUAGE SEARCH ENGINE (CHARSET=BIG5)
primarily used in Hong Kong and Taiwan”

SOSO.com is the popular one for simplified Chinese.

I notice that Johnchow.com for example has an auto translation tool and I do get lots of traffic from non English speaking countries.

Do you have experience with working with overseas traffic and or auto translation plug-ins I would love to know more?
