search terms that by-pass the search results altogether Can't Post
Hi everyone, this is my first post.

Is it possible to define special keywords that, when searched, automatically take a user to a content page that i specify - in lieu of a search results page?

Hi ukguy,

Thanks for the post and welcome to the forums!

Search Engine isn't actually set-up to work that way, that being said perhaps someone in our community has come up with a way to set this kind of function up. We have a pretty helpful bunch here so I'm sure if there is any ideas floating someone will let us know. :)

Does this help? In the meantime if you have any other questions please feel free to ask.
Cheers,

Hi ukguy

I think the problem is trying to predict what people key in.

What you could do is create links to specific search queries and give the page title you want to prioritise a specific reference number - one that is only on that page. This should place that page at the top of the results, but it might need a bit of keyword weight tweaking. And it might not work every time.

We simply focus on tiles and meta descriptions and add keyword weight to prioritise accordingly, it works most of the time.

I wouldn't have thought it possible to have the search engine redirect to a specific page.

Regards
Dave
