SAN JOSE, CA – November 27, 2012 – SLI Systems (www.sli-systems.com) today announced that Envelopes.com, an IR 500 online supplier of envelopes and paper goods for businesses and consumers, has seen its conversion rate for site search users double over non-site search users, through customized site search landing pages generated by SLI Systems’ full-service hosted Learning Search.

“Businesses come to us for specific envelope brands, while consumers – who might be shopping for a wedding or other special event – are typically looking for certain colors and styles,” said Laura Santos, marketing manager for Envelopes.com. “The landing pages we created with SLI’s site search expertise offer each of our customers a personalized shopping experience once they arrive at our site. We can see this approach is clearly paying off. Shoppers who come to these landing pages, based on their search terms, convert more often, stay on the site longer, and buy more products.”

“We have several clients whose businesses are both B2B- and B2C-focused, said Shaun Ryan, CEO of SLI Systems. “A one-size fits-all approach to search doesn’t serve anyone well. The keywords visitors type in the search box, actually tell you a lot about their intent. It is the only place on a Website where this intent is expressed so clearly. Relevant results are critical to a successful shopping experience, and by creating custom pages for each of the Envelopes.com’s buyers, their diverse set of customers are presented with content that is relevant to their individual needs. Shoppers can now more quickly and easily purchase precisely what they came to the site for.”
