By analyzing what your users search for, you can understand what they want and which keywords they use. By looking at how they interact with the search results, you can understand how well your service answers their aspirations.
Most importantly, through search, you can get invaluable feedback about your users’ intent: feedback that accelerates their digital journey, and therefore your revenue. But that’s only true if you’re actively using the data that they’re giving you through search —if you collect, analyze, and surface this data.
For the first time, our Analytics feature will track the search flow in its entirety — from beginning to end. We’re not only analyzing the queries that are typed and the filters used, but also the results that are retrieved and how users interact with them. Do people click on the results list? Do they add a product to their cart, or read the article, or watch the video?
Today, we’re releasing a new Analytics functionality, available via API as well as the newly updated front-end dashboard. It is designed to track click and conversion events following a search.
Searches. Improve visibility into queries and keywords users type, as well as queries that return zero results. Set up Query Rules for one-off problematic queries — or adjust your searchable attributes to address systemic issues.
Filters. Create faster paths to conversion by predefining filters on specific keywords based on the most popular filters users are selecting when searching.
Results. Improve relevance on every query by using insights into results users see when performing a search. Identify and analyze low quality search results and find problematic queries such as common typos, obscure queries and query reformulations in order to improve content and relevance.
Clicks. Gain insights into what results users are clicking on, what position those results appear in, and the average click position of specific search queries
Conversions. Join search and conversion data in order to understand which search results are converting, and improve search queries that lead to users abandoning
There are two main ways search analytics provide value: by giving you actionable business insights, and by helping you improve the relevance of your search engine.
By analyzing the queries that your users are typing, you can get insights that will be useful across your business:
Analytics surfaces easy paths to improving your search relevance:
Ever since we’ve started Algolia, our goal has been to focus on making the best possible search engine, and our new Analytics feature is another step on that path. It adds a new dimension to the strong foundation of our engine: textual and business relevance, speed and reliability.
We can’t wait to see how you use Analytics to make meaningful improvements to your search experience and to your business. And we certainly plan to guide you along the way and help you make the most of the insights surfaced by your analytics.
