Autocomplete has become one of the most effective means of focusing the search query to improve the results shown by the search engine. ‘Autocomplete’ is getting the flare as many sites utilize the feature to improve the search capabilities of their engines (Wikipedia and YouTube to name a few).
The point here is to lay emphasis on how vital this feature is turning out to be for in-site search and we might just have a tool that helps you make the best of it and PredictAd makes its way to power your entire search.
PredictAd is a startup company based in Israel, providing Autocomplete service for many a top social networks and web portals like Lyrics.com and Perfspot. The company has made noticeable progress since its beta launch in January 2008 with over 50 million searches a month over a countless domains.
PredictAd provides its users with a variety of services to enhance the search experience for those who use search in your website. From Refined search to monetization, PredictAd makes sure that its not just search that gives users a better experience but yields a higher click and conversion rate to boost your site’s potential.
So what and how exactly does Autocomplete help? Is it like what you usually get in your search boxes within Google or explorer? No, PredictAd is the Nostradamus for search; which means that whenever you type in a query, PredictAd shows certain recommendations that are closely related to what you might be searching for. You are at will to either select from the given predictions (that take you to the concerned site) or carry on with your search.
Where does monetization come into play? If you just look down the search assistants suggestions, you notice a non-obtrusive ad in the user field of vision. Now this works like any AdSense, or ad deal in your site, every click here results in its conversion to earnings for the publisher.
PredictAd also lets the publisher keep track on the searches made with its search analytics giving you a detailed view of how the users interact with your site. This helps publishers to improve their site design and drive targeted resulting in higher profits.
Coming to the feature of Autocomplete, I am of the opinion that this might very well take away the burden off the regular search we perform by cutting short the effort with suggestions. PredictAd has done quite bit of job at grasping this early and gaining quite a lot of popularity. I just had a mail from Tomer Molovinsky, Chief Marketing Officer of PredictAd, stating that PredictAd is now ‘live’ on Netlog as well.
definitely impressive service and i totally agree that it will take away the burden off the regular search. i was thinking can we have some thing like this with Google custom Search with monetized one.
