Optimization
Ensure Correspondence Between Queries and Catalog
A customer might write “pantalon jean” (jean pants) while your products are labeled “denim.” Without term matching, the result shows 0 products: that’s a lost sale. The thesaurus creates equivalences between the words used in the search and those in your catalog. Your internal search engine better understands the purchase intent and returns coherent results, thereby improving the search experience.
Clarifying Expansion in Your Search Strategy
Expansion is a thesaurus rule that maximizes the coverage of search results for a generic term. The goal is to enrich the query before the search execution, without requiring all products to have a generic label. Example: Sport → Yoga, Football, Gymnastics; when a customer searches for “Sport,” the engine automatically includes products related to these specific terms.
