What is Voice Search? Voice search occurs when a user utters a query or command to a virtual assistant on a device. The assistant recognizes the voice command or query, analyzes the user intent and provides a response to that query from search engine results. These include Siri, Alexa, Google, Google Maps, Yelp, Bing, etc.
Voice search is poised to change search once again. It is already a necessary feature in modern cars and has made its way into homes due to the increasing popularity of smart home devices. VSR is a golden opportunity for businesses to reach more customers easily and improve their online presence.
