Challenge
Red Dog Informatics was rolling out a new site for Endocrinetoday.com, published by SLACK Incorporated, a sister company in The Wyanoke Group. Red Dog required improved search functionality that would deliver relevant results, support metadata drilldown, and integrate with their site design.
Solution
LTech's QuickStart for Google Search Appliance allowed Red Dog to build out a successful search system. LTech customized the included parametric search capabilities in Version 5 of the Google Search Appliance to support a more sophisticated hierarchical drill-down. In addition, LTech consulted with Red Dog on best-practices for structuring their web content for crawling and outputting of results.
Results
Endocrinetoday.com is now powered by the Google Search Appliance. Users enjoy sophisticated drill-down search functionality along with the simple power of relevant and speedy search. This solution is slated to be rolled out to more publication web sites in the future.
