Tips for Effective Search Suggestions

  1. Start with partial queries: Use incomplete search terms to get the most relevant suggestions (e.g., “what is the capital” instead of full questions)
  2. Keep queries short: Shorter queries typically generate more diverse and useful suggestions
  3. Use common search patterns: Leverage popular search formats like “how to”, “what is”, “best”, etc. to get high-quality suggestions
