Template

Create a priority roadmap from search optimization.

Use one format to assess product data, UX, relevance, technique and merchandising on the same decision criteria.

Problem

Specifically describe which search behavior or which user route is not working properly.

Search Quality →

Evidence

Add query samples, search volume, CTR, zero-result searches, feedback or product data observations.

Analytics →

Range

How many queries, visitors, categories, stores or revenue streams are affected?

Search volume →

Impact

Estimate user and commercial impact conservatively and make assumptions explicit.

Conversion-KPIs →

Effort

Take engineering, data, content, testing and management with you instead of just construction time.

Implementation →

Owner

Designate one person responsible for implementation, communication and evaluation.

Governance →

KPI & Guardrails

Determine in advance what improvement means success and which strong routes should not deteriorate.

KPI Framework →
Prioritization

A roadmap is a decision log, not a wish list.

Preserve per item problem, evidence, decision and outcome. This makes it visible which improvement patterns work and which assumptions need to be retested.
