Fake Data, Shame on You!
Written by Jimmy Lim from Hong Kong on 10/30/2001
|
It seems to me the high ranking of soson in Alexa and the comments posted here are all fake. The ranking is even higher than many more well-known Chinese websites. For search engine, I dont think soson is the best, it's database is smaller than many other rivals. The colors are good, but it gets tired looking on it very soon. I am sure the webmasters from soson are busily posting their reviews about their own websites here. |

Cheat on many things!
Written by LC from Hong Kong on 10/19/2001

soson do something nasty on Alexa that makes their traffic seem to be very high. Alexa once showed that soson's traffic is even higher than Yahoo! HK for at least half a year. Do you believe that? In fact, their traffic is extremely low. Their management also cheated a lot during the sales processs. Their bookstore closed recently. Stupid idea! |

Business Model
Written by Dickson from Hong Kong on 3/16/2001

The stroy of Chinesebook and Amazon told us wasting too much money on Marketing is definitely wrong way in B2C, now Soson seems not to promote its own books shop, but Soson setup book shop with Atnext, HKCyber, Red-Dots and Go2HK, and Taiwan NPM.NET, and left the expensive marketing to their partners' sites do, and then share revenue with them. Please critize with evidence, you are mature now. |

On-line books model is finished.

To Diskson's previous comment. Don't you know the B2C on-line selling book is over? Just look at Amazon.com. Didn't you learn enough from ChineseBook.net story? Btw, it seemed a self-promoting message from soson as they often did in Alexa and other message board. |

Earning Real Money
Written by Dickson from Hong Kong on 3/16/2001
|
Soson gave up the expensive marketing, and now selling books with Atnext.com, Scanews.com, HKCyber.com, Red-dots.com, Go2HK.com, NPM.net, Giordano.com.hk, e-Finance.com.hk. If the target of traditional marketing is to draw traffic, Soson achieved this target by penetrating its search box to the above book shops sites. If the target of Marketing is to draw money on ecommerce, Soson already get its target by making Real money with those big sites. |

Need more marketing!
Written by Shank Li from Hong Kong on 3/14/2001

This site is very suitable for those who can't input chinese keywords but still want to search Chinese websites with english keywords. The results are quite accurate. However, they need to do a bit more marketing in Hong Kong. |

Freedom of Speech
Written by Leo from Hong Kong on 2/16/2001

There is freedom of speech. If somebody say something against you, you can't just cover up their views. This is what the silly Soson people does. Everytime I place a review, they cover mine with 10 more reviews. You guys are really something! You come to the market with this childish search engine, generate page views in alexa and make up all these reviews by yourselves. |

Need to change business model!
Written by Mr. Wash from Honduras on 2/13/2001

Soson is very good. The design is great and I like is so much. But I really hope they can get over the harsh period in this Internet world. Search engine is not to generate revenue. Most of the banners are from barter. So people turn to web hosting or design or even solutions. But both turns out that the profit margin are extremely low. My experience (venture capital) with such companies is that they cannot stay for more than one year if they don't have enough cash. |

Good news for Oversea Chinese
Written by Dr. Wang from United States of America on 2/8/2001

Typing Chinese is a barrier for Oversea Chinese to search Chinese information of the web. By using English Keyword to search in soson.com to find Chinese information is very convenient. Easy to use and user-friendly interface. |

Face the truth and wake up.
Written by Search Watcher from Hong Kong on 2/5/2001

Soson.com is extremely localise for HK users only. I wonder how can soson survive with only the HK market.
Take a closer look to soson's feature/service! Nothing new there!! Maybe soson claimed that they use a new approach to search web content for users but do you think users will notice the difference. Or do they care and understand the difference? |
