Bilibili: China’s Gateway to Gen-Z and Millennial Audiences
In China’s fragmented digital landscape, Bilibili has emerged as a standout platform, prioritising community and engagement. With 172 million monthly active users (MAUs) in 2020, it has become a key destination for Gen-Z and millennials, bridging gaps between entertainment, education, and commerce.
The blog explores Bilibili’s unique features, including its iconic 'Danmu' (bullet comments), which enable real-time viewer interaction and foster a deeply connected audience. Categories like anime and gaming remain central to its identity, while education and western media content are increasingly gaining momentum. Notably, many YouTube creators are using Bilibili to connect with the Chinese market, reinforcing its status as a gateway to global content.
Opportunities for Businesses on Bilibili
For businesses, Bilibili offers numerous opportunities through brand collaborations, influencer marketing, and mini-program eCommerce integrations. However, the absence of seamless off-platform eCommerce links requires creative strategies to captivate users and drive engagement.
In essence, Bilibili is transforming how digital audiences consume content, solidifying its position as a vital player in China’s tech landscape and a significant resource for brands targeting younger demographics.
