Webinar: Combining the Google Search Appliance with the power of semantics to improve findability
Are your search results not cutting it? Are you daunted by the diversity and ever expanding information that your search application must slice through to produce quality search results? There are many individual approaches that help ensure users can find actionable information quickly — and the best bet is attacking the problem from more than one direction. That is why we recommend using metadata to drive faceted search and intuitive, dynamic content navigation.
In this presentation, Smartlogic’s Toby Conrad and MC+A’s founder and managing partner Michael Cizmar talk in detail on how combining Semaphore with the Google Search Appliance turns a good search engine into the platform for compelling, intuitive search applications.
Topics Covered:
- GSA search foundations (including the 6.4 updates!)
- Understanding the GSA integration
- The semantic extension for ontology and classification that is Smartlogic’s “Semaphore”
- Understanding the GSA integration
- Using metadata to drive faceted search and intuitive, dynamic content navigation
- Providing intelligent links and recommendations between topics
- Using topic pages to drive more traffic to your site and to keep people for longer
