The Website

Gunfire is a pan-European online store specializing in airsoft equipment and tactical gear, attracting more than 3 million pageviews each month. This case study focuses specifically on their Polish domain.

The Challenge

Gunfire is a long-standing partner of Prefixbox and was curious to find out exactly how search impacts their online business.

The Solution

Prefixbox proposed an A/B test, comparing its fully optimized Semantic Search Engine with Gunfire's custom-built solution.

The test revealed that Prefixbox's Semantic Search Engine generated 27.6% more Revenue than Gunfire's custom solution. Prefixbox's improvement of Gunfire's KPIs clearly demonstrates Prefixbox's impact on their bottom line.

Online Experiment Setup

In June 2024, Prefixbox conducted a one month-long A/B test on Gunfire's Polish domain, dividing website visitors equally into two groups (50-50%).

The control group saw results powered by Gunfire's search solution, while the treatment group saw Prefixbox's Semantic Search Engine, Rich Autocomplete, Related Products, and Related Searches modules.

Detailed Results

27.6% increase in Revenue

Shoppers who had the search experience powered by Prefixbox generated 27.6% more revenue compared to the shoppers with the alternate solution.

This remarkable uplift was a result of several factors, discussed below.

28% increase in Average Purchase Revenue per User

Measured in Google Analytics, Average Purchase Revenue per User shows the average amount of revenue generated from purchases per user.

Prefixbox users made purchases with 28% higher value on average than the control group. This increase played a key role in overall revenue growth.

21% increase in Transactions

The segment receiving Prefixbox's search made 21% more transactions during the test period.

This indicates that purchases were not only of greater value, but also more frequent.

Improved User Experience Thanks to Higher Result Relevance

To better demonstrate the difference between the two solutions, let's examine a real example.

Consider the scenario where two shoppers search for the query 'spring m150' (in Polish) with one shopper engaging with Prefixbox and the other using the alternative search engine.

The first shopper receives results from the alternative search engine. This returns an excessive number of entries—specifically, 879 across 37 pages.

Notably, even the top results are not ideal as type 'm130' springs are displayed.

In contrast, the second shopper interacting with Prefixbox's Semantic Search Engine receives results that are the relevant to their query. They see only six springs, all of which meet their criteria of type 'm150'.

Summary

Prefixbox conducted a one month-long A/B test on Gunfire's Polish domain, a leading European online store for airsoft equipment and tactical gear.

The test revealed a 27.6% increase in Revenue, a 28% rise in Average Purchase Revenue per User and a 21% increase in Transactions for shoppers interacting with Prefixbox.

The test demonstrated that Prefixbox's enhanced search capabilities led to a significantly improved user experience. Prefixbox's relevant search results drove higher-value purchases and increased transaction volume, positively impacting Gunfire's main KPIs.
