FAQs: China Website Development
The majority of websites in China are in Simplified Chinese, with a small amount of websites also in English.
Typically, we agree with the client whether they wish to have the website in Simplified Chinese only, or English as well.
As part of the process we also discuss and recommend how and where to host your new China focused website, as the hosting location can have a big impact on the performance of your website from a page load speed and SEO performance perspectives.
Usually we recommend to include the following elements and features to ensure your website effectively targets users accessing your website from China:
- A website with it's main section in Simplified Chinese and possibly in English if your business also targets foreign users located in China
- A feature to scan your business' WeChat account on all pages of your website, so user can message your business on WeChat
- Hosting your website in China or Hong Kong
- Including a design layout with denser information, vibrant colours, and more interactive elements to cater to local user preferences.
It is best practice to host a website in China that is for users in China, however, you need an ICP license to acquire a web hosting package that has it's servers in China. To obtain an ICP license you need to have a business entity registered in China.
If you are unable to host your website in China then we recommend hosting your website in Hong Kong instead, as this will still give you good page load speed and SEO performance in China, whereas hosting in any other location than China or Hong Kong can lead to slow page load speeds and your website domain not being able to be indexed in Baidu's search engine.
An ICP (Internet Content Provider) license is a permit issued by the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, allowing websites to operate legally within China. If you plan to host your website on servers located in mainland China, obtaining an ICP license is mandatory.
The Great Firewall is China's internet censorship system that can block or slow down access to foreign websites. To ensure your website is accessible and performs well in China, it's essential to have optimised web hosting for your website.
Minimizing reliance on blocked services (like Google APIs), and complying with local regulations is also important to ensure China's firewall does not negatively impact the performance of your website for users in China.
