Baidu’s Web Page Quality White Paper scores a page on three dimensions<\/strong>, and a failure in any one damages the whole: content quality<\/strong>, browsing experience<\/strong> and accessibility<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Content quality is judged per page type<\/h2>\n

Baidu evaluates the main body<\/em> of the page, and what counts as good body content depends on what the page is for:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Home page<\/strong> \u2014 clear, effective navigation and recommendations.<\/li>\n
  • Article page<\/strong> \u2014 clear complete content, better still with images.<\/li>\n
  • Product page<\/strong> \u2014 complete truthful product information and a working purchase route.<\/li>\n
  • Q&A page<\/strong> \u2014 an answer with reference value.<\/li>\n
  • Download page<\/strong> \u2014 a working download entry, no permission traps, a valid resource.<\/li>\n
  • Document page<\/strong> \u2014 actually readable, without permission limits.<\/li>\n
  • Internal search results<\/strong> \u2014 results genuinely relevant to the title.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The dimensions Baidu names as most important are cost, completeness, truthfulness and safety<\/strong>. “Cost” is unusual and worth noting: the time and expertise visibly invested in the page.<\/p>\n

    The four content grades<\/h2>\n
      \n
    • Good<\/strong> \u2014 significant time and expertise invested, clear and rich, valid resources, truthful, safe, no cheating. Baidu’s examples: a specialist medical topic page from a professional institution, a senior engineer’s complete solution to a technical problem, a licensed film on a proper video site, a working purchase page on a known retailer, original reporting from an authoritative news site.<\/li>\n
    • Medium<\/strong> \u2014 meets the need but without evident effort or expertise; complete but not rich; truthful but collected from elsewhere<\/strong>. An ordinary forum post, an unedited republished news item, a pirated novel page.<\/li>\n
    • Poor<\/strong> \u2014 little information, or information that has expired<\/strong>. Delisted products, ended group deals, closed job listings, deleted videos, downloads that no longer work. Baidu warns specifically that UGC, e-commerce and directory sites must manage expired pages, because a high proportion of them affects the rating of the whole site<\/em>.<\/li>\n
    • No quality at all<\/strong> \u2014 cheaply produced, unedited scraping, malware, cheating, or deception. Baidu’s definition of cheating: a page that does not aim to meet a user need but profits by deceiving users and the search engine.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Browsing experience<\/h2>\n

      The stated principle is a ratio: the higher the cost of reaching the main content, the lower the browsing experience<\/strong>. Between two pages of similar content quality, the better-laid-out one ranks higher. Baidu supports legitimate advertising and states the target explicitly \u2014 content primary, advertising secondary, both serving the user.<\/p>\n

      Named failures: text with no paragraphs, text colour close to the background, no valuable content on the first screen, advertising covering the main content or filling the first screen, too many pop-ups or floating adverts, unexpected pop-ups on clicking a link, and advertising indistinguishable from content.<\/p>\n

      Accessibility<\/h2>\n

      Normally accessible pages rank normally. Permission-restricted<\/strong> pages are judged case by case \u2014 and the distinction Baidu draws is fair: a paywalled academic paper with real copyright and high production cost is treated as normal, while a login wall over cheaply collected content is not. Pages requiring an obscure plugin<\/strong> are treated as potentially malicious. Expired pages are demoted or deleted from the database.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
