Extended information:

Taobao's marketing model:

(1) "surrounding the city with the countryside". As the country has strengthened the regulation of text messages, a large number of small and medium-sized websites and personal websites have lost their source of profit and are unable to continue. Taobao puts advertisements on these small websites and, through advertising, lets consumers know that there is such a C2C e-commerce website.

(2) Taobao's alliance with portal websites such as MSN. As people's views on Taobao have changed greatly, Taobao has begun to form strategic alliances.
