[DEPRECATED] Search navigation analytics
Warning
Valid up to v3.1, it has since then been merged into a single search analytics dashboard.
This static page focuses on search analysis, with a notion of "navigation" from users.
Going through the functionnalites, you can first decide which type of analysis you want to see, but selecting it with the buttons on the first line titled "Type":
- Top Queries: it will display in the chart below only the most frequent queries. This allows you to identify trends in terms of what users are searching for.
- No Hits Queries: it will display in the chart below only the most frequent queries where the search engine found no corresponding documents in its index. This may be a sign that you may have missed a relevant data source repository (and then you should add it in ManifoldCF), or maybe some documents have not been taken into account at the indexing phase, in which case you should contact your system administrator to investigate the issue.
- No Clicks Queries: it will display in the chart below only the most frequent queries with results, but where users did not click on any result from the list. This may be a sign that users are not satisfied with the documents displayed. If you have an idea of which document should be displayed for a given query, you can use the admin functionnality that allows to promote documents based on identified queries.
- Too long Queries: it will display in the chart below the queries sorted by their execution time, from the slowest to the fastest. This is can be used to evaluate the performance of the engine. But it can also be used as hint for the system administrator if some specific queries unexpectedly consume a very long time to be executed.
