          Hi ,
          finally I managed to setup my site in Baidu Webmaster Tools with the help of a freelance staff member in China. Site is verified and sitemap submitted.

          In section "Site Properties", field "Affiliate subject" I can't figure out after extensive search what I need to setup here for a foreign company without any presence and without company registration in China. Anybody can help?

          When I click on this field, it indicates "Site association subject is a necessary link for mobile resources to enter search." so my site will not show up in mobile results without it?

          Grateful for any tips on how to resolve this piece of puzzle of the baidu setup.
          Thanks

              I don't know which setting you are talking about "Site Properties", but I can answer your second question.

              If you don't have a company in China, you don't need to set it up. In addition, "Site association subject is a necessary link for mobile resources to enter search. "As long as this is optimized well, it will also be displayed in the mobile results.

                @skchad13j said in Baidu Webmaster Tools: How to setup in "Site Properties" the field "Affiliate subject"?:

                To set up the "Affiliate subject" field in Baidu Webmaster Tools' "Site Properties," you can follow these steps:
                (study abroad)
                Log in to your Baidu Webmaster Tools account.
                Go to "Site Management" and select the website you want to work on.
                Click on "Site Properties."
                In the "Affiliate subject" field, enter relevant information about your website's primary focus or subject. This helps Baidu understand your site's content better.(Dental Hygienist Course Fee In Canada For International Students)
                Save your changes.
                Providing accurate information in the "Affiliate subject" field can help improve your website's visibility and performance on Baidu's search engine. (best digital marketing agency)

                It's important to note that as of October 2023, Baidu Webmaster Tools did not have a field labeled "Affiliate subject" in its "Site Properties" settings. However, platforms and tools can change over time, so it's possible that new features or settings have been introduced since then.

                To resolve this puzzle and get accurate information on how to set up the "Affiliate subject" field in Baidu Webmaster Tools, I recommend visiting the official Baidu Webmaster Tools website and referring to their official documentation or seeking help from their support resources. They will provide the most up-to-date and accurate information on the platform's settings and features.

                  Baidu Webmaster Tools did not have a specific field labeled "Affiliate subject" in its "Site Properties" settings. Baidu Webmaster Tools primarily focuses on providing webmasters with tools and features related to optimizing their websites for Baidu's search engine.

                  However, Baidu's interface and features may evolve over time, so it's possible that they have introduced new settings or options since then. To set up any specific feature or field in Baidu Webmaster Tools, I recommend visiting the official Baidu Webmaster Tools website and consulting their official documentation or help resources for the most up-to-date information on their platform's settings and features.

                      Multilang site: Auto redirect 301 or 302?

                      redirect 301 redirect 302 international seo

                      We need to establish if 301 or 302 response code is to be used for our auto redirects based on Accept-Language header. https://domain.com
                      30x > https://domain.com/en
                      30x > https://domain.com/ru
                      30x > https://domain.com/de The site architecture is set up with proper inline HREFLANG.
                      We have read different opinions about this, Ahrefs says 302 is the correct one:
                      https://ahrefs.com/blog/301-vs-302-redirects/
                      302 redirect:
                      "You want to redirect users to the right version of the site for them (based on location/language)." You could argue that the root redirect is never permanent as it varies based on user language settings (302)
                      On the other hand, the lang specific redirects are permanent per language: IF Accept-Language header = en
                      https://domain.com > 301 > https://domain.com/en
                      IF Accept-Language header = ru
                      https://domain.com > 301 > https://domain.com/ru So each of these is 'permanent'. So which is the correct?

                      International SEO setup issues canonical URL

                      My site is www.grocare.com for one region and in.grocare.com for another region. Both of them have the same content except the currency for particular regions. Someone told me that google will take the content as duplicate and not rank either. I have setup hreflang and targeted different regions for both in the search console. I read many article which say canonical urls need to be setup for international seo sites. But Im not sure how to setup canonical urls and whether they are the right way to go . i just don't want my content deranked. Now i have setup hreflang properly after asking the moz community itself. So im hoping to get some help with this query too. TIA

                      Can you target the same site with multiple country HREFlang entries?

                      Hi, I have a question regarding the country targeting aspect of HREFLANG. Can the same site be targeted with multiple country HREFlang entries? Example: A global company has an English South African site (geotargeted in webmaster tools to South Africa), with a hreflang entry targeted to "en-za", to signify English language and South Africa as the country. Could you add entries to the same site to target other English speaking South African countries? Entries would look something like this: (cd = Congo, a completely random example) etc... Since you can only geo-target a site to one country in WMT would this be a viable option? Thanks in advance for any help! Vince

                      If I redirect based on IP will Google still crawl my international sites if I implement Hreflang

                      We are setting up several international sites. Ideally, we wouldn't set up any redirects, but if we have to (for merchandising reasons etc) I'd like to assess what the next best option would be. A secondary option could be that we implement the redirects based on IP. However, Google then wouldn't be able to access the content for all the international sites (we're setting up 6 in total) and would only index the .com site. I'm wondering whether the Hreflang annotations would still allow Google to find the International sites? If not, that's a lot of content we are not fully benefiting from. Another option could be that we treat the Googlebot user agent differently, but this would probably be considered as cloaking by the G-Man. If there are any other options, please let me know.

                      Subdomains or subfolders for language specific sites?

                      We're launching an .org.hk site with English and Traditional Chinese variants. As the local population speaks both languages we would prefer not to have separate domains and are deciding between subdomains and subfolders. We're aware of the reasons behind generally preferring folders, but many people, including a-moz.groupbuyseo.org, suggest preferring subfolders to subdomains with the notable exception of language-specific sites. Does this mean subdomains should be preferred for language specific sites, or just that they are okay? I can't find any rationale to this other than administrative simplification (e.g. easier to set up different analytics / hosting), which in our case is not an issue. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

                      Upper case or/and lower case in rel="alternate" hreflang

                      Hi Mozzers, I have a question about the rel="alternate" hreflang tag, with an example. When I use two subfolders for two different countries/languages, for instance www.domain.com/nl-nl/ and www.domain.com/nl-en/ (for the English version) and I want to use the rel="alternate" hreflang tag, do I need to follow the ISO standards concerning Uppercase country code and Lowercase language code (en-NL)? Or is it okay to use the Lowercase country and language code (en-nl), since we also use this in the URL of the Subfolder. What does Google prefer? Thanks in advance.

                      Google Webmaster Tools - International SEO Geo-Targeting site with Worldwide rankings

                      I have a client who already has rankings in the US & internationally. The site is broken down like this: url.com (main site with USA & International Rankings) url.com/de url.com/de-english url.com/ng url.com/au url.com/ch url.com/ch-french url.com/etc Each folder has it's own sitmap & relative content for it's respective country. I am reading in google webmaster tools > site config > settings, the option under 'Learn More': "If you don't want your site associated with any location, select Unlisted." If I want to keep my client's international rankings the way it currently is on url.com, do NOT geo target to United States? So I select unlisted, right? Would I use geo targeting on the url.com/de, url.com/de-english, url.com/ng, url.com/au and so on?
