Ecommerce Site Search: An Underused SEO Data Source

What customers type into your own site search bar is some of the most accurate keyword data you'll ever get, and most sites never look at it.

Fix Zero-Result Searches

A search that returns nothing is a lost sale and a missed content opportunity; track and address these terms specifically.

Feed Findings Back Into Keyword Research

Site search data often surfaces the exact phrasing customers use, which is valuable input for external keyword targeting too.
