Abstract: Techniques for assisting a user in conducting a search for online content are described. According to various embodiments, a set of search results is generated, in response to a user search query. A list of candidate facet-value pairs, for inclusion in a suggestion facet user interface element for display in-line with the set of search results, is then accessed. The suggestion facet user interface element may be configured, upon user selection, to filter the set of search results based on the corresponding facet-value pair. Thereafter, win rate information identifying win rates associated with each of the candidate facet-value pairs is accessed. A specific one of the candidate facet-value pairs having the highest win rate is then selected for inclusion in the suggestion facet user interface element.

Abstract: Method and system to present suggested facets is described. The system includes a search request detector, a search results generator, a facet selector, and a presentation module. The search request detector detects a search request comprising search criteria. The search results generator 220 retrieves search results based on the search criteria. The facet selector selects a suggested facet from a plurality of facets, where a facet represents a category may have a variable value and indicates a filter for refining search results. The presentation module generates a list of items that includes search results and the suggested facet.
