According to Sanyan Technology on July 27, recently, some netizens discovered that Xianyu quietly restarted its web version.

The main page of Xianyu's webpage is roughly divided into three parts: category navigation, key categories, and interest channels. Users can start the immersive large-screen experience after logging in at the upper right corner of the page. The product display still uses the "text above and picture below" layout of the mobile terminal. The difference is that the larger screen brings more opportunities for products to be displayed on the same screen, making it easier to select products and compare prices. After clicking on a specific product link, the details of the large picture and video are also better displayed, which improves the consumer experience and decision-making efficiency to a certain extent.


Not long ago, Taobao website administrator "Kongwu" announced the latest progress of Xianyu web version while revealing that Taobao web version will support image search function. He said, "Many users hope to use Xianyu on PC to find their favorite products. We all understand that 'working and fishing'. With the unremitting efforts of Xianyu, a preliminary version of PC Xianyu will be launched soon. The complete transaction version is still under intensive development, but it will be ready soon. You can look forward to it."

Relevant staff of Xianyu said that in May this year, the web version of Taobao was significantly updated, which made comprehensive optimizations in product experience, commodity supply, content supply, etc., and received high praise from many users, especially senior users. In the Taojianghu forum, we noticed that many netizens also expressed their expectations for the web version of Xianyu, and then relevant business colleagues began to make intensive preparations.

At present, the web version of Xianyu can already support functions such as account login, search, viewing product details, and buyer-seller chat, but the actual payment still requires scanning the corresponding QR code on the mobile terminal to complete the order.

A senior Xianyu user believes that when the transaction product has more parameters and details, and requires clear pictures or videos, the advantage of the web version becomes very obvious. For example, for electronic digital products, daily necessities, second-hand luxury shoes and clothing, or two-dimensional peripherals that require detailed comparison and quality judgment, the practical web version is smoother than the mobile version.

Public data shows that Xianyu has more than 500 million users, of which 43% are those born after 1995 and 22% are those born after 2000. Four million items are posted on Xianyu every day, and the latest report from research firm QuestMobile shows that Xianyu had 162 million monthly active users in April this year. With such a large scale of users and products, it is natural to restart the web version to meet as many user needs as possible in different scenarios.

Relevant staff of Xianyu revealed that in the future, other functions that can be realized on mobile terminals will be gradually improved and launched on the web version, bringing users a more comprehensive and smooth experience.
