Understanding Search Intent Classification

Updated June 3, 2026 · 45 views

Search intent describes why a user is searching.

Intent Classes

  • Informational: User wants information (e.g., 'how to rank').
  • Commercial: User is researching options (e.g., 'best SEO tools').
  • Transactional: User wants to buy (e.g., 'buy SERPHub plan').
  • Navigational: User wants a specific site (e.g., 'SERPHub login').

We use NLP to classify search terms automatically.
