Taobao, China’s largest online shopping site, has become an important part in Sarah’s life. She spends lots of money on Taobao.
A growing number of Chinese Internet users like Sarah have found the joys of online shopping. Most online shoppers are students or young workers. More women shop online than men. Clothing and home-use products bought online are the most popular.
It was reported that more than 300 billion yuan was spent on online shopping last year. 80% through Taobao.
Taobao means “looking for treasure” in Chinese. People can find almost everything they need on Taobao, from clothes to books, from candies to DVD players.
