Reduce 404 errors by correcting typos, simplifying words, and compering them to a list of your existing pages.
An advanced search algorithm that splits the url into individual words, and generates a score based on the similarity to each database url. The user then gets redirected to the highest scoring result. To improve accuracy and allow some 404 errors, a result must reach a specific level of similarity, adapted to the length of the words to enable abbreviation detection.
Reduce 404 errors with a smart search, that attempts to find something in the database similar to what the user types in the url.
This search will check what the user types in the url, and decodes it to the way it sounds, then compares it to the decoded sound of each page in the database.
