A recent report from MarketingSherpa indicates 43% of website visitors will immediately go to the search box, making it a critical component to increasing e-commerce revenue. According to a survey conducted by Internet Retailer, 27% of companies indicated site search as a top e-commerce technology budget priority, with 26% stating they plan to add or replace their site search application within the next twelve months.
"EasyAsk natural language site search, navigation and merchandising solution helps our clients drive significantly more e-commerce revenue by getting the right search results on the right page, the first time," said Craig Bassin, EasyAsk CEO. If you're using an old key word search solution, you are using an obsolete technology that is leaving a lot of money on the table. We are honored to be recognized by Internet Retailer for our impact on driving e-commerce sales."
Natural language and semantic search has become the most important trend in Internet search with the leading Internet search providers - Google, Microsoft and Yahoo – adding semantic search to their offerings in the last 24 months.
