Match All Keywords
This setting requires that a result match every keyword entered into the search field in order for it to be displayed as a search result.
This setting should result in the fewest, but potentially most relevant, results.
Example search query: Wireless broadband router
In order for a product to be displayed in a search result, using the "Match All Keywords" setting, the words "wireless", "broadband" and "router" must
all be found in the product's description.
Match Some Keywords
This setting requires that a result match two of the keywords entered into the search field in order for it to be displayed as a search result.
Example search query: Wireless broadband router
In order for a product to be displayed in a search result, using the "Match Some Keywords" setting, any combination of two keywords must be found
in the product's description (i.e. "wireless" and "broadband", "wireless" and "router" or "broadband" and "router").
Match Any Keywords
This setting requires that a result match at least one of the keywords entered into the search field in order for it to be displayed as a search result.
Example search query: Wireless broadband router
In order for a product to be displayed in the search results using the "Match Any Keywords" setting, at least one of the words ("wireless", "broadband",
or "router") must be found in the product's description. This setting is likely to result in the largest number of results.

Wildcarding
A wildcard is used for matching terms with the same prefix, root or suffix. The wildcard character
(“*”) represents any other word or part of a word that might be associated with your search term.
There are two ways to manage wildcards in the search box:
1. Automatic Wildcarding
2. Manual Wildcarding
 |
Automatic Wildcarding |
| |
A wildcard will automatically be added to the end of all alphanumeric and numeric search terms that are
entered into the keyword field. For example, a numeric search term like “1020” will automatically have
a wildcard added to the end of it, resulting in a search for “1020*”. The search results would
include products with “1020”, “1020x”, “1020y”, “1020z”, etc.
in their product descriptions. Multiple numeric and alphanumeric search terms entered into the keyworld field will
all be wildcarded automatically.
You may use Phrasing to disable the automatic wildcarding of the alphanumeric and numeric search terms
entered into the keyword field. To do this, simply place quotation marks around the search terms that you do not
want wildcarded. For example, a search for “1020”, entered into the keyword field with the
quotation marks, will prevent the wildcard from being added to the end of the search term.
|
 |
Manual Wildcarding |
| |
Use an asterisk (“*”) to manually add a wildcard to your keyword search terms. For example, a
search for the term “1320*” will display all results that start with “1320”. The use of
a manual wildcard will disable any automatic wildcarding that would normally occur in the keyword field. |
Phrasing
To search for an exact phrase, insert that phrase inside quotation marks. For example, adding quotation marks
around the words "wireless router" will force the search engine to display only those products that have the exact
phrase "wireless router" in their product description.
Spaces in Keyword Searches
When multiple terms separated by a space are entered in the Keyword field, the search engine separates them into
unique searchable terms. You may use the Keyword search operator to control the relationship between each term. For
example, you may select "Match All Keywords", "Match Some Keywords" or "Match Any Keywords".
Special Characters in Keyword Searches
Special characters are characters that are not letters or numbers, like the dash ("-") and period (.). Special
characters are treated like empty spaces by the search engine. You may use the Keyword search operator
to control the relationship between each search term.
