Can your business website be seen in China?
Only 25% of foreign internet websites can be accessed in China; 20% take more than 20 seconds to open, and 55% cannot be accessed. In 2023, we tested the top 100 UK companies' websites from China. Only 14 websites were visible in China.

Start TestingWhy is it happening with your Domain Name in China
Like the rest of the world, Chinese companies and consumers are looking for products and services; the starting point is an Internet search.
With international social media not available in China, your website is the local source of information about your business.
Most websites, unless specifically developed for China, use third-party services that are not available in China.
Many websites include articles and images from social media. Most social media from outside China is blocked, leading to missing information from websites.
Platform and cloud services, e.g., Google, as well as CDNs, are blocked or given limited internet capacity, leading to very slow response times.

Why use our internet content testing tools?
Most website test tools only check whether your business domain can be seen from mainland China using a simple “ping test”. A “ping test” is like poking your website to see if it exists.
A “ping test” determines only whether your website's IP address is not blocked in China. It does not explain your website's performance in China or whether parts of your content are blocked.
The testing process helps you understand which parts of your business are visible online in China and the response times. Most international sites take over 30 seconds to load. This is due to global social media and Google site content being blocked or slowed, leaving your website with missing components or not functioning properly.
The reports show you each part of your website's content performs. Your website's performance is measured by how end users see it.
Quick checklist
List of the most common reasons for web page failure:
- Are DNS lookups slow or unreliable from Chinese networks?
- Do pages rely on blocked resources (Google, global social platforms)?
- Are critical JS/CSS files hosted outside China and subject to poor routing?
- Is the website appearance correct?
- Images are downloading slowly due to file size, international internet connectivity, or poor CDN performance in China?
- is there any missing contents, e.g. Socail media?
- What is the time it takes to open your home page?
