  • Synonyms
    Synonyms are words or phrases that mean exactly or nearly the same as another word or phrase in B2C Commerce search. If a number of terms are defined as synonyms, then searching for one of those terms returns the results for all of the terms. You can also exclude specific synonyms using negative synonyms. Brand synonyms are automatically generated.
  • Hypernyms and Hyponyms
    A hypernym is a broad term for a group of B2C Commerce products. A hyponym is a term for an item in the group that the hypernym describes. A hypernym returns the results of all of its hyponyms, but the hyponyms only return their own results. Exclude specific hypernyms using negative hypernyms.
  • Stop Words
    Stop words aren’t indexed in B2C Commerce and therefore are ignored when they’re entered in a query. These are words that don't influence the result of a search query, such as articles and prepositions (a, an, the, in, on, for). This has a significant effect on the size of the index and the efficiency of the search result.
  • Common Phrases
    A common phrase is a search term with 2-5 words that are next to each other and in a specific order. Use common phrases to decrease noise in your search results and give B2C Commerce customers more targeted results for multi-word search queries.
  • Category Name Exclusions
    Excluded category names aren't indexed as keywords for the product in B2C Commerce and aren't included in search phrase suggestions. This is useful for combination categories with subcategories with distinct products.
  • Compound Words
    A compound word is a query term that a customer can enter as a single term or a phrase. If a compound word appears in a search phrase as a single term, it's automatically split. B2C Commerce treats each part of the split word as a separate search term.
  • Stemming Exceptions
    Stemming reduces a word to a shorter base form, which increases recall in B2C Commerce search.
  • Search Suggestions
    When a B2C Commerce shopper starts to enter a search term on the storefront, the storefront application shows terms that can help complete the search. Depending on the configuration, search suggestions can range from being a simple list of related terms to being more complex and providing extra details.
