View Full Version : Synonyms - Compound words?

Is it possible to have a synonym with a space in it? For example, if I want "Product Release" to act as a synonym for "Sales Release", Zoom will combine "Product Release" into "productrelease". I could get around that by making "Product" a synonym for "Sales"... but that would have really undesirable results.

Would a symbol, such as an underscore or hyphen, help Zoom to separate out the words? Or is "Product-Release" treated as a different word from "Product Release"?

Thanks in advance,

- JW

Zoom only does word synonyms. You can't create synonym phrases.

Yes, depending on your join word settings, "Product-Release" is treated as a different word from the phrase "Product Release".

Maybe the solution is to add the phrases "Product Release" and "Sales Release", into the meta keywords for the page(s) in question. Then these pages will appear as results when these phrases are being searched for.
