Search Improvements : Brand names, abbreviations, misspellings
We're working on search results and showing as many relevant ones as possible.
For example, at the moment a search for xbox will show results with xbox in the title. We need to search for x box and x-box also. This has been done now but there are many more.
Spiderman
Spider-man
Spider man
M&S
M and S
M & S
Marks & Spencer
Marks and Spencer
Marks & Spencers
Marks and Spencers
etc
Let us know any you think of ....
Thanks,
Gazza
