: Can someone explain how one would go about providing alternative searches for
a query… similar to Amazon.
: For example say I search for Red Dump Truck
:
: - 0 results for Red Dump Truck
: - 500 results for Red Truck
: - 350 results for Dump Truck
Well -- it depends on what you want
Can someone explain how one would go about providing alternative searches for a
query… similar to Amazon.
For example say I search for Red Dump Truck
- 0 results for Red Dump Truck
- 500 results for Red Truck
- 350 results for Dump Truck
Does this require multiple searches?
Thanks

nothing. We also apply various heuristics to the alternative searches being
performed like no one word searches
