Search engine keyword highlighting
Posted: Sep 2008, Matt | In: CSS & Design & Expression Engine & Stuff | Leave a comment
We've just added search engine keyword highlight to our websites list of features. Any visitors to our projects page from Google will now have their search criteria highlighted. This kind of feature improves the usability of our site, allowing visitors to find what they were looking for quickly.
The feature itself is provided by a plug-in for our CMS system, Expression Engine. “Search Highlighter” scans the referral information as the user is directed to our site from Google, and then accordingly highlights all matching keywords.
The highlight colour is completely configurable using CSS.
