Search analytics have arrived!

You asked for it, and it's finally here! Search analytics has officially landed in the Meilisearch Cloud! We've received numerous requests for a way to track key analytics in the Meilisearch Cloud, and we've been hard at work developing a solution that not only empowers you to make data-driven decisions, but also enhances the overall user experience.

So, what's all the buzz about? 🤔

The new dashboard incorporates a set of metrics providing insights into your users' search behaviors. Its purpose is to give you a quick and comprehensible overview of user search queries and highlight what they might be missing. The implications are vast:

• Improve recommendations and popular search sections, bolstering e-commerce through cross-selling.
• Create intelligence reports for your customers.
• Fine-tune settings and ranking rules to optimize search experiences and inform business decisions.

What metrics can you expect?

The first iteration of cloud analytics covers the following metrics:

• Daily searches chart
• Most searched queries
• Searches without results
• Daily search latency
• Total searches
• Total users
• No result rate
• Click through rate*
• Average click position
• Daily searches per index
• Conversion*

*The CTR (click-through rate) and the conversion rate must be configured to fit a specific use case or need.

The default view combines the data from the indexes per project, but it’s also possible to filter out the insights for a specific project of your choice. The dashboard also allows you to select a custom range using a date picker:
