Shenma

Shenma is Alibaba’s mobile-oriented search engine in China, and this category tracks product and SEO-relevant updates when they surface. Coverage is selective: indexing behaviour, mobile SERP features, and how Shenma sits beside Baidu for certain query classes and device contexts.

For China SEO programmes that still monitor secondary engines — especially mobile discovery paths tied to the Alibaba ecosystem — these notes help avoid treating Baidu as the only surface that matters. We skip noise and publish when marketers can act.
