People who use the site search function are looking for a specific product to buy. 

Your site search should be able to match a shopper’s search intent with the product they’re looking to buy. When people search for a product, and find it, they are 6-10 times more likely to convert into paying customers.

Sadly, many eCommerce sites do a poor job of matching shopper intent and shoppers hate searches that return no results - this creates a bad experience for them.

A properly working site search feature is sometimes underestimated by store owners. If your site search is not satisfying your visitors - they will simply go back to Google. In this case, the search engine will be a lot more useful in producing the desired results for them. That’s when you lose a customer. 

Up to 30% of your visitors will use the site search feature at some point. This is a great opportunity to increase your conversion rates without actually spending that many resources on it.
