ChinaNet Online Holdings, Inc. (CNET) Integrates Marketing Services with Baidu Mobile Promotion App

ChinaNet Online Holdings, a parent company to ChinaNet Online Media Group Ltd., has been working extensively with Baidu, China’s leading online search engine, to integrate ChinaNet’s advertising and marketing service solutions with Baidu’s online and mobile services. ChinaNet is a leading business-to-business Internet technology company, focused on online-to-offline sales channel expansion services for companies in the People’s Republic of China.

ChinaNet has now announced that it was officially invited and has attended Baidu’s launch event introducing Baidu’s new mobile app for businesses in China.

ChinaNet Holding’s COO, George Chu, spoke of the company’s plans: “We are very excited to collaborate with Baidu to integrate our services for Baidu Promotion App. With an increasing number of small business owners in China conducting day-to-day operations through their mobile devices, we see an opportunity to provide another unique, value added service to our customers. We believe our integrated mobile offering will complement our existing online advertising and promotions suite and allow us to sell more services to new and existing small business customers.”

The new Baidu mobile application lets business owners access real-time business data through their smartphones, allowing them to track the effectiveness of a promotion and make appropriate adjustments based on sales data. The app is available on all Android phones, with an iOS version scheduled for release in Q4 of this year. The Baidu Promotion App, as it is called, has already recorded approximately ½ million downloads.

ChinaNet provides various sales channel expansion services primarily to small and medium sized enterprises, along with entrepreneurial management and networking services for entrepreneurs in China. Through certain contractual arrangements with operating companies in the PRC, the company provides Internet advertising and other services via its portal websites, 28.com, Liansuo.com and Chuangye.com, TV commercials and program production via China-Net TV, and in-house LCD advertising on banking kiosks targeting Chinese banking patrons.
