About the automatical page redirection of AliCloud websites

【Reprint from the forum of AliCloud.com】

Dear Users,
Recently there’re questions on the automatical page redirection between AliCloud China and international websites. Here are some tips for your reference.
The global website of AliCloud (intl.aliyun.com) was launched in early Nov., to provide internationalized services to users out of China, including products specialized for global users, local languages support and dollar payment service. Accordingly the original AliCloud website (www.aliyun.com) will
mainly focus on Chinese mainland users (identified by country in registration)
To help the new users saving time on figuring out which website to choose, we have set up the auto-redirection mechanism, by which the website will automatically redirect you to the website based on your IP address or registration country of your account when you visit the websites.  If there’re still questions, you may check the FAQ below:


FAQ:
Q1: Why do I see English version while I used to see Chinese version of the website?
