In the Statistics > Dashboard menu, you have access to the basic key figures of your search app: the number of searches and your search revenue.
Number of searches:
This figure shows you how much your store's search engine is used; and how many searches have been carried out both in instant search and, if enabled, on the search results page.
The Number of searches graph shows you the number of searches in a given period.
Searches can be any of the types of actions listed next to the Search composition diagram; however, the number of searches in this graph excludes Admin searches.
The period of the monitored data can be selected in the top right corner of the page:
You can monitor the number of searches in a month, and this helps you choose the offered plan with a comfortable monthly search limit. Important: in case you reach the search limit, Rapid Search will be disabled in your store and reenabled at the beginning of the next billing period.
Search revenue:
Gives you the value of orders placed in the same session as a search was carried out in your store. Detailed list of all the orders included in the Search revenue can be found in the Statistics > Conversions menu.
Search composition:
The following are considered searches and count towards your monthly search count:
- Keyword clicks: clicking on any keyword of the popular suggestions in the drop-down instant search box
- Product clicks: clicking on any of the suggested products in the drop-down instant search box
- Collection clicks: clicking on any of the relevant categories in the drop-down instant search box
- Page clicks: clicking on any of the pages suggested in the drop-down instant search box
- Zero-character clicks: clicking on any keyword of the popular suggestions or trending products in the drop-down instant search box before typing in the search input field
- Abandoned searches: exiting the store before finishing the search (entering a keyword but not pressing enter or clicking on any of the suggestions in the drop-down search box).
- Result page searches: either pressing enter after entering a keyword in the instant search field and hence opening a result page or searching for any following keyword on the search results page
The following are considered searches but do not count toward your monthly search count:
- Admin searches: Searches you carry out whilst logging in to your Shopify admin on your device. Admin searches are not included in your Number of Searches graph either.
