If we had to compare, Bilibili is the closest thing China has to YouTube.
Although the video-sharing site started as a hub for ACG (anime, comics, and gaming) content, it has grown to hold all sorts of content.
We use it to promote our clients in multiple industries—education, gaming, E-commerce, tech, and education, to name just a few.
Bilibili can be used to
promote a company or product,
run video ads,
become an influencer, with long or short-form videos; and,
embed videos that are visible on your website in China (your YouTube embeds will be blocked in China).
If you have any long-form video content for a Chinese audience, Bilibili should be your first port of call.
