Search Engines for Online Stores and Commerce Sites

Online stores and product catalogs need a search function so that customers can bypass any hierarchical navigation and find the things they want to buy. It's a form of customer service, like having a knowledgeable sales person who can answer questions accurately.

Many online stores have no search engine or an inadequate one: when customers can't find what they want, they may well leave and never return.
