A recent survey by Econsultancy found that at least 30% of website visitors would use a search bar on a website to continue searching for additional content. That means roughly one out of every three people who come to your website is looking for a way to search for more of the same content on your website. This same crowd are also five times more likely to convert into a lead if they can use a search feature on your website.
Our website at Keynote Content has a small eyeglass search icon at the end of our main menu towards the top of our website. We also have a search feature at the bottom of our website in our footer section.
So, where’s your search button? I recommend adding a search button towards the top of your website and at the bottom in your footer section. This gives readers a chance to search before they scroll down as well as searching after reading an article or page.
Today is about making sure you have a Search feature easily accessible on your website. Double-check on your site and add a search bar if you don’t have one right now.
Have a great day today and remember, your Message matters!
