At the beginning of 2010, no matter how 2009 ended, it is already in the past, and people must always look forward. For the majority of webmasters, the current Internet situation is not optimistic, but they still need to face it with a positive attitude. They must know that opportunities and challenges coexist. Instead of complaining, it is better to find ways to find opportunities. With the new year and new atmosphere, webmasters should not just be limited to the current Internet environment. They should understand the Internet environment outside mainland China and learn from it.

Guest summary:
Thank you all. In fact, because the mainland has a larger population online and each market project can be more detailed, for example, Taiwan does not have a professional communication platform for webmasters. Group buying is popular in Taiwan, and there are already many programs for group buying in the mainland, which can be greatly utilized. Promotion. Mainland China’s advantages in this regard can be promoted in Taiwan. If you take the time to observe Taiwan's entrance network Yahoo and other Taiwan ranking websites, you will be able to find more opportunities to complement each other, and this opportunity is huge.
The professional project we run in Taiwan is SEM, which involves studying and learning knowledge about the United States and mainland China. Since we are going to www.yahoo.com.cn and google.com, we pay special attention to knowledge about American websites. Recently, I was reading some information exchanged by mainland webmasters, which opened my eyes. To be honest, in terms of SEO, it is much more professional than Taiwan. I think more Taiwanese people will pay attention to learning this program in the future. Finally, I wish you all a new year, a new atmosphere, and continuous new harvests.
This edition of the chat opened a window for mainland webmasters to understand Taiwan's Internet, and gave them a general understanding of Taiwan's Internet situation. Although it is not clear at a glance, it at least saw some opportunities and explained the possibility of cooperation. I hope that mainland webmasters can learn more about the Internet environment outside the mainland, so that they can see more, think deeper, and find more opportunities when they go out.
