Your company’s WeChat Official Account is not getting you the desired results?
Have no idea how to increase your brand's visibility?
Is your audience’s attention to your brand waning?
If you answered yes to the above questions, then you should pause and work on your WeChat SEO. In this article, we will describe WeChat’s search engine optimization features and give you some tips on how to use SEO to reach more Chinese (potential) customers and increase your WeChat marketing in the first page that they are searching for.
It sounds like a real and complete search engine, doesn’t it? The WeChat search system has high-quality search features and collects a lot of detailed and relevant data to help you with marketing strategy. You should take care of your SEO to get indexed by the system and give your brand more opportunities to be seen.
Stop the monotony of basic WeChat features. Let your imagination run wild, and use mini-programs or mini-games within the app. Engage your audience in a fun way, make your content interactive, and let users play with your content. This is how you stand out from the other competitors in your field.
The Chinese market encourages incentives and rewards. Customer retention is much more steps advanced compared to the West. Most brands use Loyalty Programs for their long-term and non-long-term customers. Gamification and subscription programs are the most common forms.
Of course, producing high-quality content is easier said than done, but on WeChat, content is king. The WeChat algorithm ranks user engagement rates (clicks, impressions, and interactions) and values the quality of your content. It is not enough to post articles, videos, or images. You also need to use appropriate and relevant keywords and produce interesting and unique content for your market.
WeChat works like Google and categorizes search results. As you may already know, it indexes products, articles, mini-programs, etc., but WeChat includes external sources such as Zhihu (Chinese Quora), Sogou (Chinese Wikipedia), and other video and music platforms. Since users can filter their searches, companies should invest in another source to provide relevant content to their target group. Zhihu is the perfect example, easy to use, and one of the most used.
