ScholarMate: All of the sources listed are affiliated with the site in some way.  The first source is the company's homepage, the second is of an affiliate, while the last two are dead links.  Even worser, this site has virtually no news coverage and was created by a one-purpose account.

The abstract notes: "This paper conducts a case study of ScholarMate, which is the earliest and the largest academic social networking site in China. The analysis results show that ScholarMate has a relatively accurate positioning and has formed a unique business model, but its user activation has been low for a long time, suggesting that the users’ continuous use needs to be improved. Clarifying that users of academic social networking sites are motivated primarily by acquiring academic information, it defines the core value of academic social networking sites as helping to identify the most valuable content for users quickly and accurately through social relations. Based on this, corresponding countermeasures are put forward from three aspects: resources, information discovery and users."  Xu, Zhimin 许志敏 (2018).
