The Search phrase report is a list of all the search phrases that Elevate currently has stored in its memory for each market, with a maximum of 100 000 search phrases per market. It includes statistics for number of searches, hits, "no hits", clicks, add to cart, purchases, conversion rate, and impacts on units for all search phrases. The table below shows what is measured and included in the search phrase report.
| Measurement | Definition |
|---|---|
| Search phrase | The search string/phrase that is analyzed. |
| Searches | The number of sessions that contains a search for this phrase. |
| Hits | The number of sessions where the search leads to a non-empty result. |
| No hits | The number of sessions where the search always leads to an empty search result. |
| Clicks | The number of clicks that can be traced back to the search phrase (if it all happens during the same session). |
| Add to cart | The number of add to cart actions that can be traced back to the search phrase (if it all happens during the same session). |
| Purchases | The number of purchases that can be traced back to the search phrase (if it all happens during the same session). |
| Conversion rate | The ratio of how often the phrase actually leads to a purchase. The conversion rate is calculated as purchases divided by the number of searches. |
| Impact | The impact the phrase has on the overall search conversion rate, expressed as percentage points*. |
*A high positive figure means that the phrase is a significant contributor to the aggregated search conversion rate. It’s a net contributor to search conversion rate.
*A high negative figure means that the search phrase is used a lot but converts lower than the aggregated average. It’s a net detractor to the search conversion rate.
All statistics are shown within a selected time interval, per market. You can easily change the market.
