Great UX => Findability

The way Relevanssi enables findability within a site is the most powerful component you can add to a user’s search experience.

Synonyms and the ability to look intelligently within custom types and fields (to name a few) just opens up the content in a way that native search does not. This allows us, for example, to easily add words in a custom post field that is reflective of a user’s natural language — an important consideration for e-commerce and directory sites.

Search is a powerful navigational tool in itself and crafting its construct is part of the “invisible” care and attention that we can put into our products to provide exceptional and relevant experiences (for both our clients, and their customers). Relevanssi helps us control this relevance in balance with a client’s business decision to never give a user a dead-end of no results. No results are bad, but irrelevant results can be worse.

The unexpected, swift and selfless support form the author, Mikko, was also a life saver on our last project when we needed that extra bit of genius to make the project great with a very specific query.
