Are you still using the default WordPress search function on your site?
I keep getting asked from our users why their site visitors don't engage enough with their content.
Oftentimes, the reason is the default WordPress search.
The default search function has evolved over the years. Yet, it still excludes a lot of important elements, like categories, tags, custom fields, product information, and more.
It features the SearchWP plugin. If you want, you can also choose from 12 different alternative plugins to enhance your search (both free and premium).
