Google Search Appliance: Creating the Search Experience Introduction 13
Supporting Multiple Languages
This example illustrates how you can deploy search experiences in two different languages.
Suppose your company serves consumers in both the United States and Canada. You might create two
search experiences: one for English-speaking users and one for French- speaking users. On the search
page, you can give end users the choice of viewing pages in English or French. This approach enables
the search appliance to serve results in the language of users.
The following figure illustrates a results page in French.
The following table gives highlights of some differences between the English and French search
experience.
For more examples of how search experiences can support multiple languages, visit Google Canada
(
http://www.google.ca/ ) and Google Mexico ( http://www.google.com.mx/ ).
For information about making the types of changes described in this section, refer to “Refining Search
Results” on page 22 and “Changing the User Interface” on page 24.
Managing the Search Experience
The Google Search Appliance feature that enables you to create different search experiences for end
users is the “front end.” A front end is a framework that manages most of the elements of a single
search experience, including:
• The appearance of search and results pages
• The data that is returned in search results
