From pole mergers and acquisitions Mydown, Baidu acquisition of the sky and other examples are not difficult to see, download site has become a hot topic in this period of time. And in the hardware-driven download type of Web site, the drive home has been "hogging" the Chinese internet for many years. But this still does not stop the many passionate and intelligent entrepreneurs in the Internet, driving the Chinese founder Su Yang is an example.

Founded in 2005, the drive of China (http://www.driverchina.com), currently with a large driver library, powerful driving search features, is constantly improving the internet and development. This period, a wood let everyone know about webmaster Su Yang, look at his entrepreneurial road.

A university student's road to build a business

1999, came to Beijing before the university has never seen the computer Su Yang, soon to the computer and the Internet fans, six months later, the use of knowledge to pay their own tuition and living expenses. 2002, with the hands of only thousands of yuan to buy a server to do the virtual host, website, start a business, early 2003 set up a company to enter the IDC industry.

By 2005, when Su Yang in the IDC industry, he made a bold decision to create a drive for China that would undoubtedly be very risky for running a new, unprofitable project. But Su Yang firmly believe that the future of the Internet industry, who can provide users with the most professional, most thoughtful information and services, the market belongs to WHO.

Technical Su Yang is the most good at the site of the structure, the creation of the Driving China Network all the program development, art all from his one hand. It is now out of the pure investment period, more and more companies began to focus on driving China, began to put ads.

Search technology allows hardware drivers to search fast

Su Yang said: "Our most complex technology is to drive retrieval." "Driving the Chinese database currently has nearly 100,000 drivers, whether it is accurate to search the required driver has become the key to user attention." So Su Yang used a fool-type search, search form similar to Baidu, can associate related search keywords, keyword by the number of search, to facilitate user search.

The primary database of the search database and the Web site is separate, which effectively reduces the pressure on the primary database and can enhance the speed of the search database and the database of the primary station. Search results for the independent HTML page, improve the speed of the search server, while reducing the pressure on the main station server.

Su Yang 20 servers to undertake a huge amount of data to ensure the normal operation of the site. In addition, he in the interactive link also increased the input, drive ask, drive the forum, drive the blog three channels to solve the site and the audience communication interaction problem.

Webmaster Heat Answer:

One wood: Download website to build station technology request very high, how do you build download website?

Su Yang: Professional download site must have a good bandwidth and a number of different regional mirror server support, which is undoubtedly a big test of the early stage of the construction station. But before setting up a drive to China, I have been doing server and IDC services for years, and this problem is not difficult for me, make full use of existing resources, can control the cost to the minimum. Station maintenance and download site management, can only take a set of feasible editing verification measures to ensure that users download the quality.

A wood: drive home can be said to be the industry "boss", why do you have to go to drive to download this path?

Su Yang: Drive home to provide download services, both in the industry and the Internet users have a good reputation, there is no doubt. I think that if there is only one enterprise in the field to provide services, then this area must be in sub-health state, and this must have a market, so I set up to drive China's original intention is to provide more users with services. We are similar to the driver's, but we pay more attention to the search service, the style is different, there is no conflict.

One wood: How do you attract popularity to improve site hits?

Su Yang: Of course, mainly rely on search engines, driving China in various search engines are included in the number of Chinese-driven Web pages not less than 100,000 pages. In Baidu and Google more prominent, the search engine every day to drive China to bring a large number of users, about 80% of the population. Recommended to build the site friends, in the early stage of construction must pay attention to search engines. The technical realization method mainly manifests in the website frame design, the keyword design and so on. At the same time, we will also carry out related activities with manufacturers, so that manufacturers and users through our website more interactive activities, to expand the promotion.

One wood: How to solve the problem of virus, Trojan and rogue software in downloading files?

Su Yang: First, driver is different from the application software, our driver is mainly from the hardware manufacturers, manufacturers will not be in the driver to add viruses, trojans, etc., which will directly affect the hardware performance; second, only a small part of our drivers are from third parties, and these programs are all rigorously installed and tested, Ensure that no viruses, Trojans or rogue software are available to download. As a result, users can safely download all drivers from the drive China. We guarantee absolute safety and reliability.

A wood: For Tenkine mergers and acquisitions Mydown, Baidu acquisition of the sky, what do you think?

Su Yang: We draw on the Mydown and the sky can attract the success of popularity, but did not want to walk by others mergers and acquisitions, of course, will not strive for mergers and acquisitions. Driving China is based on our own mode of development, the current main consideration of the audience group or download users, because the user benefits we can become winners.

One wood: The new website has Web2.0 technology, has driven China to consider joining this technology?

Su Yang: No consideration has been given to joining WEB2.0 technology. Although able to successfully get the VC is mostly Web2.0 site, this to the Web2.0 site VCs will bring negative factors. But Web2.0 is a conceptualization of things, and most of the current Web2.0 site is not very good, the profit model is not obvious constraints on the development of the main factors. If survival is a problem, how can we talk about providing better services?
