When website visitors come to your site looking for a product or service, they will often head directly to the search box in the header of your homepage. This site search feature acts like a salesperson would, letting shoppers know what you can offer to meet their needs. If this system work well, consumers can find what they need, and proceed to next steps. If it doesn’t, it’s like having a salesperson direct shoppers to the wrong aisles, tell them that you don’t carry goods, or recommend products that don’t match their goals. Bad results can lead to lost sales and revenue, and can potentially impact the loyalty of shoppers, as they can get frustrated by a poor search experience.
