Sales! It is the driving factor for e-commerce and multi-brand online retail stores, food ordering apps, etc, across the world. Another thing all e-commerce platforms have is the search bar! Technology has allowed for such better advertising and targeting in today’s world. However, one of the elements of the tech platforms that have to see significant technological advancement is the search bar. In order to get to a particular product, a user has to know what keywords to type to get appropriate results.

However, imagine this, a smart search bar which works on UI analytics and search history to drive your customers directly to sales rather than them trying different search keywords, wasting time in idle thinking and ultimately leaving your site. This, precisely, is the work of Searchbar.AI, the new generation search bar for businesses and customers alike. Searchbar.AI aims to get rid of the old system of the search bar, wherein customers have to think and type – and replace it by redirecting the consumers directly to their preferred purchases by providing insightful suggestions.

As opposed to a plain advertising look, Searchbar.AI uses search advertising interfaces that are improved and more social with multi-brand retail, in order to attract a more impressionable audience. Searchbar.AI also has an AI interaction bot which differs from every other chatbot out there, since it’s  an interactive chatbot which helps people find specific sections of the website based on the preferences of the user.

Why do you need an evolved search bar?

When it comes to online sales platforms, it is vital that marketers understand the critical importance of every second a customer spends on their website. Surveys reveal that a visitor on your website will stay for an average of 2 minutes and 17 seconds at max, before bouncing to another site. It becomes vital, therefore, to grab the prospective consumer’s interest and attention as soon as possible towards products they yearn for the most.

In addition to this, companies lose 20% of sales when visitors spend time on idle thinking. There is a lot of advertising money being spent in today’s market environment on Search Marketing, which ideally works on the basis of the consumer having to type keywords repetitively. An average of 30% of business is lost within seconds when users stop exploring the website. A HUGE loss, indeed. The team at Searchbar.AI absolutely resents this loss of conversion, and thus, have created something to sharpen up your search bar.
