Hello All.

I am new to DevNetwork and wanted to receive some advice on how to improve our search engine for products on burpy.com. Was wondering to see if there were any market tools already out there that we could integrate into our site.
We really need to improve our search relevance and speed with priority being on relevance.

Looking for any suggestions.

Thanks.

I assume you are asking about the search feature on your site, and no how to increase your search rankings. Do you index the information about your products in some way? Or just SQL LIKE searches of your product database?

Right now, we pretty much just do SQL like searches in our database to find the products.

Have you looked into creating a search index from the information in your product database?
