1. A computer-implemented method for enhancing search data using a search engine and a transaction handler, comprising:

  • processing, by the transaction handler, a plurality of transactions initiated at a plurality of terminals associated with a plurality of users, the plurality of transactions relating to a plurality of merchants and resulting in transaction data, wherein the plurality of terminals is associated with a plurality of searches performed in at least one search engine by users with a plurality of search terms, and wherein the transaction handler is configured in an electronic payment processing network including the transaction handler, at least one first computer in communication with the transaction handler and configured to receive payment for at least a portion of the plurality of transactions in the electronic payment processing network, the plurality of terminals in communication with the transaction handler and configured to generate the plurality of transactions using a plurality of account identifiers corresponding to the plurality of users, and a data warehouse in communication with the transaction handler and configured to store transaction data corresponding to the plurality of transactions;

    receiving, from a user through a portal in communication with the data warehouse, a request to retrieve search statistics, the request identifying at least one search term;

    identifying, by at least one processor, a set of search statistics based at least partially on the at least one search term, the set of search statistics relating to searches performed by users;

    generating, by the at least one processor, a set of transaction statistics corresponding to the set of search statistics based at least partially on the transaction data, the set of transaction statistics relating the searches performed by the terminals to an impact on transactions;

    correlating, by the at least one processor, the set of search statistics to the set of transaction statistics; and

    juxtaposing, by the at least one processor, at least a portion of the set of search statistics with at least a portion of the set of transaction statistics to generate a response to the request from the user.
