SubscribeStats: 39 Million WAP Users in China
China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC) just released a survey report (pdf file) on development of WAP in China.
The key findings of the report are as follows:
- As of March 2007, there were about 39 million active wap users in China, they used mobile handsets to access WAP sites in last six months. About 90% among them are internet users as well, they access internet via PC in last six months.
- Most of the WAP users (over 60%) live in east of China, the concentration rate of WAP users are higher than that of internet users and mobile subscribers.
- About 9.7 million, or about one forth of total WAP users, live in Guangdong Province.
- 57% users will use WAP at least once a week.
- 26% users pay RMB 11-20 yuan per month for WAP usage, 23% users pay 21-50 yuan and 20% users pay 6-10 yuan.
- 48% users used WAP search in last six months, 40% played WAP games, while the most popular service is ringtone and image download (63%).
- WAP site of Baidu, Sina, Sohu, Tencent and Netease are all among ten most popular wap sites, others include WAP sites by Kongzhong, 3G.net.cn, Yicha.cn(wap search), Lxyes, and China Mobile Monternet
Certifications like 70-271 or even 642-845 help in the way of adequate web development. Developers assembling affiliate software for their sites are often unaware of the exact way search engine services work. While looking out for website hosting, they really do not pay attention to importance of certain domains over others. And once they are done with web hosting, this kind of information proves to be worthless.
