  • AI Powered Search (coming soon) – Connect to OpenAI to allow your users to seach using human readable queries such as: show me products for a beach holiday in Italy.

Why You Need An Improved WordPress Search

The default WordPress search often falls short of user expectations. By combining all search results onto one page it can be difficult to find what you need, whether it is products or blog posts.

SuperSearch addresses these limitations by allowing users to tailor their search based on content type, streamlining the search process without and eliminating the need to navigate away from the page.

You can effortlessly enhance your website’s search functionality by adding SuperSearch anywhere on your site using a simple shortcode. Experience the power of SuperSearch without the hassle – install it swiftly and effortlessly, and watch your search capabilities transform instantly!

See search results fast

Here’s how we make it happen:
When you install the plugin, you syncronise your site data to our SuperSearch platform. We process this data to what we call a search index, which is data optimized for searching. You can manually update the search index when you choose from the plugin, or once a day the plugin will automatically send updates to the search index when a page, post or product have been created or updated.

Our search index is a streamlined extract of your site data converted into structure that provides fast data lookup, significantly enhancing the speed of search results. We further process this data by implementing additional index optimization to improve the search results that handle typos and relavance of the results. The outcome? Lightning-fast context and relavant search results that transform the user experience, making finding information on your site quick, efficient, and incredibly responsive.

The WordPress plugin is released under the GPLv3 license, which does NOT extend to any associated Hi-Orbit services.

Only took us about 10 minutes to set up and has improved the page load speed of our website just by switching out our old search plugin for Super Search.

SuperSearch has really improved our website’s search. It’s straightforward to set up and configure, just add the shortcode and sync your products. Being able to filter by post, page, or product is handy. Support was great, I had a couple of questions which were answered quickly
