First of all, I want to tell you for sure that China is not a very advanced country in the field of e-commerce. In other words, in fact, there are many excellent B2B in various regions and industries, with its local development history, recognition from local businessmen and usage habits. It's very simple, just like when several people upstairs talk about Internet trade, they immediately think of Alibaba, China Manufacturing Network and global sources, which we can all understand. This is a habit, because it is developed locally, and its "popularity" is based on the consciousness of local users. You may not know about other foreign platforms, but you know, so in the areas where our products are exported, there are also platforms that local online merchants think are well-known and used to, so this is an important point for enterprises to choose. In addition to geographical (usage habits) pertinence, industry pertinence is also very important. In order to make many foreign trade friends who want to use the Internet to do business no longer go into the misunderstanding of e-commerce, I hope that when choosing platforms, you should never take a website with high reputation as the starting point, because as mentioned earlier, each platform has industry and geographical limitations, and it is best to analyze it according to your industry, product characteristics, product export area or intended market before choosing channels. Of course, there are data comparison between buyers and sellers on the platform (mainly to analyze the competition degree of peers) and then make a choice, so that even if the last one is not the most "well-known", it is at least highly targeted, because the factors analyzed in front are directly related to the search habits and buying habits of buyers!
