News this week:
China’s leading e-commerce company, Alibaba
Group, has launched its own Internet search engine, Aliyun, (which is also the name of its mobile
OS). The search engine will come under its cloud computing subsidiary – AliCloud.
Search features offered by Aliyun include the ability to
search news, sites, images and maps (via AutoNavi). Aliyun was launched
as a mobile OS in 2011 and since then Aliyun has launched other web-based
applications, such as an Android app store and online maps. The search engine
service represents Alibaba’s continued push into all areas of the e-commerce
eco-system.
According to a research report released in late 2012,
China’s top 10 search engines ranked by page views were: Baidu (72.97%), Qihoo
360 – So.com (9.64%), Sogou (7.83%), Google (4.72%), Soso (3.68%), Bing
(0.52%), Youdao (0.31%), Yahoo (0.25%), Zhongsou (0.03%), and Qihoo.com
