A guide to understanding e-commerce site search and how to make it the most powerful element of your site

Nearly every e-commerce site has site search, but for a lot of retailers it’s an overlooked element. They’ve launched it, largely forgotten about it, and haven’t considered its potential to do a better job at driving conversions.

It’s important for retailers to understand what superior site search looks like and what it can do for their business.
