-==== The Optimization Behind PowerSearch ==== 
- 
-Generally there is no additional optimization needed for PowerSearch. PowerSearch generally consists of increasing the number of search terms used in a query. ​ For example, a query that would search for a given name of '​William'​ who be expanded to include "​William,​ Bill, Billy, Will, Williams, Willie, Willis, Wilson"​. ​ Presuming that Omnidex indexing has already been established to optimize the original search, it will also optimize the expanded search. 
- 
-=== Enabling MISSPELLINGS === 
- 
-Applications that wish to use the MISSPELLINGS feature (which also encompasses transposition and typographical errors) will need to perform an [[dev:​sql:​statements:​update_text:​home|UPDATE TEXT]] command on their database after indexing. ​ This command will evaluate the data in the database and create custom dictionaries used to identify the misspelled entries in the database. 
- 
-=== Enabling PHONETIC === 
- 
-Applications that wish to use the PHONETIC feature must create an Omnidex index that uses the PHONETIC option. ​ This option indexes the phonetic equivalent of a word as well as the word itself. ​ Consult the [[admin:​indexing:​indexes:​options#​phonetic|documentation]] on this option for more details. 
- 
-=== Enabling Geographic Radius Searches === 
- 
-Applications that wish to use Geographic Radius Searches, such as those shown with the zip code in the previous page, will need to have a table of zip codes that includes the latitude and longitude for each zip code.  These are available from a number of sources, including inexpensive downloads on the Internet. ​ Remember that zip codes change on a regular basis, so accuracy depends on keeping this table updated on a regular database. 
- 
-Once the table is established,​ it must be indexed for geographic radius searches. ​ Consult the  [[admin:​features:​geo:​home|documentation]] about these searches for more details.
