Note: The Site Search analytics tables and graphs update once per hour.

Add-On Feature

Search Metrics

For Searches, we can filter for six search-related metrics. The form offers six inequality tests and a number input field.

  • Click Count: Number of click-through events resulting from these searches.
  • Average Click Position: Average position of the result item that received a click-through event.
  • Click-Through Rate: Percent of searches that received a click-through event.
  • Latency: Average time to process a search.

Item Metrics

For Items, we can filter for three metrics:

  • Impression Count: Number of times this item was presented to users as a search result.
  • Click Count: Number of times a user clicked on this item.
  • Item Click-Through Rate: Percent of Impressions that received a click-through event.

The (+) button lets us apply multiple filters simultaneously. The search button (magnifying glass) executes the current search. 

Viewing and Exporting Results

A successful search produces a table of queries or items. You can sort the table by column, which provides powerful insights into the data. You can also Export the table as a CSV file.
