Search & discovery are powerful, profitable e-commerce tools that more retailers should prioritize and optimize to fully capitalize on their benefits.
Solarspeicher24 recognized the need to enhance its search capabilities to increase its website conversion rate by 6%.
To meet Solarspeicher24’s specific requirements—such as base price, energy efficiency class, variant articles, zero-tax articles, and price hiding—Luigi’s Box customized the solutions implemented.
Challenge 1: Better analytics
Solarspeicher24 wanted to have better search-related analytics. More specifically, the company wanted to track search terms to understand and fulfill customer demand.
Solution
With Luigi’s Box Analytics, Solarspeicher24 has the necessary insights to understand customer behavior and desires, address gaps in its offerings, and improve demand forecasting.
Challenge 2: Personalization
Solarspeicher24 was hoping to keep visitors engaged longer on the company’s website through more comprehensive personalization.
Solution
Luigi’s Box Recommender solves this challenge by suggesting popular products, similar items, discounts, complementary products, recently-viewed items, and more, based on a user’s past searches, items added to cart, and purchases.
Challenge 3: Custom ranking
Solarspeicher24 was unable to control which products appeared at the top of its site search results, leading to irrelevant products getting displayed first. The company wanted the power to decide which products get promoted at the top.
Solution
AI-powered Search helps improve search result relevance through a variety of different features, including Pin to Position and Boosted Items.
Pin to Position helps solve this challenge by enabling retailers to customize a product’s position within the search results (e.g., the top result).
With Boosted Items, retailers can prioritize specific products, categories, and brands in their product catalog. This helps these items get noticed sooner by promoting them higher in search results.
Challenge 4: Product relevance
When Solarspeicher24’s website visitors received incorrect search results, they would adjust their query to refine their search, which actually led to worse, less-relevant results.
Solution
Thanks to the advanced ranking features of Luigi’s Box Search, Solarspeicher24 can enhance the relevance of products shown in search results.
The ranking features work by prioritizing products based on their availability and relevance to the query. When products have the same availability and relevance, they are further sorted using additional signals, and the weights of these signals can be adjusted to influence the ranking.
The order of products is determined by a score, which is the sum of all signal values multiplied by their weights. This scoring method only affects the ranking of products with the same availability and relevance.
Each signal comes with guidance that explains its purpose, its impact on product ranking, and the business metrics it influences. Typically, these signals affect conversion rate, average order value (AOV), and margin. The aim is to optimize signal settings to positively impact these metrics.
Autocomplete also helps improve product relevance by speeding up the search process with a smart search-as-you-type function. This means results appear instantly, without needing to finish typing the entire query, allowing customers to quickly see if they’re on the right track with their search.
