HOW TO CREATE BAIDU ACCOUNT FROM OUTSIDE CHINA WITHOUT CHINESE PHONE NUMBER IN 2024Baidu Sign Up


Last Updated on January 9, 2024 by Anjum


In this article we will discuss how to create and register a Baidu Account from outside China without Chinese Phone Number – Baidu wangpan Login. Creating a Baidu account is essential if you want your website to appear in this mega Chinese Search Engine. A Baidu account will enable you to submit your website to the Baidu Webmaster Tools which in turn will make your website appear in this Chinese only search engine to the vast population of China. Not only that, a Baidu Account will also help in Downloads, Baidu Cloud and so many other things.

WHAT IS BAIDU?

Baidu is a Chinese only Search Engine and is the market leader in China in terms of Search Engines. Most people in China use Baidu to search on the web. If you have a website for which you want a global audience than appearance in this Search Engine is going to attract a lot more visitors to your website. Not only it increases the reach for your website but it also can get you the competitive edge on your competitor websites if they are not appearing on Baidu. 

HOW TO CREATE BAIDU ACCOUNT FROM OUTSIDE CHINA

If you reside in China, than creating a Baidu account is really easy. You just need to go to Baidu.com and register with your Chinese Mobile Phone Number and voila! your account is created. The tricky part is when you try and create the account from outside China from your Overseas Phone Number. 

If you are lucky then the straightforward method will work for you but if you are like me and get stuck at the following errors than the procedure becomes a little technical.

TYPES OF ERRORS WHEN REGISTERING BAIDU ACCOUNT

  • The system detects that the current account is registered through an illegal channel.
  • Registration for Overseas and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Regions is not supported at this time.
  • System cannot process your request at this time. Please try again later.
  • System error, take a break, please try again later

I had to create my Baidu account the hard way. I got stuck on “the system detects that the current account is registered through an illegal channel” error and searched for a few days until I found the solution and created my Baidu Account.  The method also works with the other errors as well.

Thank you for the write-up. Your instructions helped me a great deal. By the way, you might want to include the link for Baidu account settings (Method 2), as registering through Baidu Cloud does not automatically open them: https://passport.baidu.com/v6/ucenter

    I will look into it and add it in the post

You wrote that now we can add our website to the Baidu Webmaster Tools. Unfortunately, if I click on “Add website” button (I am already logged in to the Baidu Webmaster tool), it is a new form pop up and request to fill out the new form only in Chinese . Do you have any suggestion how to submit a website to the Baidu Webmaster tool webpage? Thanks!

    Anjum · May 7, 2020 at 11:22 pm

    The new form pop up is something that wasn’t there a couple of months ago. I will look for the solution and will update accordingly.
    Thanks for reading the post. Please like our facebook page to keep updated about new blogs.

Long time supporter, and thought I’d drop
a comment.

Your wordpress site is very sleek – hope you don’t mind me asking what theme you’re using?
(and don’t mind if I steal it? :P)

I just launched my site –also built in wordpress like yours– but the theme slows (!)
the site down quite a bit.

In case you have a minute, you can find it by searching for “royal cbd” on Google (would appreciate any feedback) – it’s still in the works.

Keep up the good work– and hope you all take care of
yourself during the coronavirus scare!

    Anjum · March 26, 2020 at 11:43 am

    Thanks Justin!

    I am using Hestia Theme. Sure, you can use it, no problem.

    I have checked your website and it is really good.

    Stay Safe and Take Care!

    Jhh88015 · April 26, 2020 at 12:24 am

    You did not work with me either way the second method when the verification code reaches my phone and I write it saying that the code has expired even though it just arrived, tried several times but it did not work for me …. can you help me?

      Anjum · April 26, 2020 at 6:37 pm

      Try waiting for some time and then send the code to your phone again and then try that code. Maybe that will help.

        Khalid · December 25, 2023 at 1:53 pm

        Help
