Searchandizing

Searchandizing (a combination of "search" and "merchandising") is the practice of optimizing on-site search results to support business and commercial goals. It blends product discovery with strategic merchandising to enhance both user experience and conversion.

Common Searchandizing Techniques

Pinning – Force specific products or content to appear at the top of search results for specific queries.
Boosting – Promote specific items, such as high-margin or popular products, by influencing their ranking.
Synonym, stopword, and alternative management – Deliver relevant results even when users enter varied or misspelled queries.
Personalization – Adjust search results based on user preferences, behaviors, or past interactions.
Facet and filter optimization – Configure filters to emphasize business-relevant categories.

Why It Matters

Effective searchandizing:

Increases conversion rates
Enables users to find desired products more efficiently
Aligns the search experience with marketing, sales, and brand objectives
