Portal Search Program

The success of your portal is heavily tied up with the success and effectiveness your portal’s search. We know that search is a default behavior of many users when they enter the portal. But do we know what those users are actually looking for, and if they can find it – quickly and easily? Do we know we know where users are conducting searches from, and where they’re going to? And if a lot of people use search, how can we determine if that’s because our search is effective, or because it’s too hard to find content in the portal?

Analytics can provide you with these answers, and more.
