Mobile shoppers expect it, and visitors with disabilities depend on it. Instant Search is one of the only WordPress plugins that includes voice search for free. Visitors tap the microphone, speak, and see results instantly. It works on Chrome, Edge, Safari, and all modern mobile browsers. No setup, no accounts, no data leaves your server. Why Instant Search? Your default WordPress search is losing you sales. A visitor searches for something, the whole page reloads, they get a list of blue links, and half the time they just leave. Instant Search fixes that. Results appear the moment they type, with product images, prices, Add to cart, direct checkout and more. Misspell something? They still get results. Don’t want to type at all? They tap the mic and speak. Stores using live search see more products found, more pages visited, and fewer visitors bouncing from a dead-end search result. If your site has a search bar, this is what it should be doing. Contributors Marincas Marius Mugurel – www.marincas.net
