At noon on May 17, 2012, a special sign "Add to Baidu homepage" appeared on Baidu's homepage. Then Zigong SEO observed 50 or so gaming industry sites that were "added to Baidu homepage" in front of the computer. I came to a conclusion, which is what I think everyone should be concerned about: how to show the "Add to Baidu homepage" logo. Below, Zigong SEO will be shared with all SEOers.
First: the key must actually have an index
What I emphasize here is that there is a real index. Maybe you use other keyword detection tools to detect that the index is 0, but you can also get the prompt to add to Baidu homepage. That is because the tool is not accurate, or it may be that the keyword has just been There are hundreds of indexes that have not been released yet. I also have a keyword with a Baidu index of several hundred ranking first, but this word has no traffic. Although it meets other conditions, the index is false, so the sign does not appear.
Second: This keyword must rank first
Only when the keyword ranks first will the prompt "Add to Baidu homepage" appear. There is a lot of competition, but in the end there will only be one number one. Maybe many of your keywords are in the second place, and you can't get recommendations.
Third: At least two keywords rank first
There are indices that I won’t mention here. Baidu will not recommend sites that users do not like. If your website only ranks first for one keyword, it proves that your website is not good enough and you will not get this opportunity. Zhang Quan and I observed some sites and drew this rule from them. At least two keywords must rank first. It is not absolutely impossible for such a recommendation to appear.
Fourth: Baidu bids for this keyword are low
In fact, what I want to say is that there is no Baidu bidding. I have also observed some sites that have "added to Baidu homepage". I passed their rankings and then searched again on Baidu. Except for the keyword "minigames", I didn't find any that did PPC. Maybe it’s because many bids were canceled at night, but I’m sure there are many bid keywords that will never show the “Add to Baidu homepage” prompt. Baidu has always emphasized user experience. There are already 10 bids on the top and then this appears below, which obviously goes against the truth.
If added to Baidu homepage, will it be able to improve website rankings just like Baidu Sharing some time ago? Will adding it to Baidu homepage also cause some bugs? But through my simple analysis, I feel that even if there are webmasters with many bugs, there will be no bugs. The solution is that for many SEOers, the keywords you work on may not necessarily be in these industries. Even if you rank first for many keywords, certain skills are still required sometimes. Besides, you're already at number one, so there's no need to do that. Besides, this "Add to Baidu homepage" has no bugs.
