If we could just use Google Search!
• Google used to search the Internet is not the same as the Google
on the Intranet!
• Internet (World Wide Web)
• Search for a Holiday in Jamaica: Lots of relevant content
• Search for a Specific Microwave Oven: Lots of relevant content
• Intranet (internal company documents)
• Search for a Specific Policy: The Specific Policy is found – it has
a unique number!
• Search for past project notes: You get lots of project notes,
somewhere in the long list is the one specific document you want.
But as you know the specific document you need, you are not
happy with the results.
• Searching for Holiday in Jamaica is very different from looking
for a specific document that you know exists!

Search Improvement
• A Google Search Appliance text search on its own will not give you
the best search results, because none of the advanced ranking
algorithms available when searching the Web can be used
• In many cases, a simple text search will cause Google Search
Appliance to return too many documents with poor ranking, making
it very difficult to locate the most relevant documents
• Documents should contain good quality metadata to describe what
they are about
• Metadata can then be used to quickly focus the search results via
the faceted search refiners

A manual metadata approach will fail 95%+ of the time
Issue Organizational Impact
Inconsistent Less than 50% of content is correctly indexed, meta-tagged or
efficiently searchable rendering it unusable to the organization (IDC)
Subjective Highly trained information specialists will agree on meta tags between
33%-50% of the time (C. Cleverdon)
Cumbersome – expensive Average cost of manually tagging one item runs from $4 - $7 per
document and does not factor in the accuracy of the meta tags nor the
repercussions from mistagged content (Hoovers)
Malicious compliance End users select first value in list
(Perspectives on Metadata, Sarah Courier)
No perceived value for end user What’s in it for me? End user creates document, does not see value
for organization nor risks associated with litigation and
non-conformance to policies
What you have seen Metadata will continue to be a problem due to inconsistent human
behavior
The Challenge of Metadata
10. © Concept Searching 2015© Concept Searching 2015
The Problem of Manual Metadata Tagging
Root cause of business failures
• Less than 50% of content is correctly indexed,
meta tagged, or efficiently searchable
• 85% of corporate data is unstructured (IDC) and
growing
• End users still spend 2.5 hours per day searching
• Increases risk of a data breach or non-compliance
exposure
• Growing eDiscovery, litigation support, FOIA
requirements and costs
• 67% of data loss in records management is due to
end user error (Prism International)
• Corporations, specifically Financial Officers, will be
held personally responsible for the security, privacy,
reliability, and compliance of information assets
• Most organizations that attempt text analytics fail
(Alta Plana)
What does it impact?
Search, records management,
data security/privacy, migration,
eDiscovery, legal and FOIA,
content management, collaboration,
business social applications,
text analytics

How Do Your End Users Search?
How do your end users search?
• 56% of searchers constructed
poor queries
• 33% had difficulty
navigating/orienting search
results
• 36% did not go beyond the first
three search results (not pages)
• 91% did not go beyond the first
page of search results
• 55% selected irrelevant results
one or more times
Enterprise searchers spend longer looking
because ‘they know it is there somewhere’
• IDG: 2.5 hours/week/employee
• Ford: 5-15% of time on non-productive information
related activities
Coping mechanisms for poor enterprise search
• Recreate
• Use older assets
• Interrupt a co-worker
• Start without information needed
• Don’t start
Difference between Human and Machine Retrieval
The search engine must accommodate
the different ways that users search
and be able to discern their intent
