Chinese Google - Gu Ge: implications for SEO

Reuters reports the expected 'substantial revenue growth in China' of Internet giant Google
"I don't know where (Chinese) revenue growth will be, but it will obviously be large," Eric Schmidt, Google's chief executive officer, told Reuters on the sidelines of a news conference on Wednesday. China is the market (and market capital) of the future and all search engine optimisation consultants need to be aware of this. Diversifying into other cultures and languages is imperative for SEO consultants who want to stay ahead of the game and provide an effective service for their clients in this lucrative market. Although much will be in mandarin, english will, it is expected, run concurrently and SEO / SEM specialists need to have a 'mandarin' arm in their organisations to keep with these latest developments.
