  • Patent number: 11397758
    Abstract: A browse node page is addressed by its path. As a result, a web crawler may be more likely to find the browse node than the corresponding parameter-based search page. The browse node may be further distinguished from a search result page by the use of a title or header metatag that indicates information about the browse node and distinguishes the browse node from a general search result page. The number of combinations of keywords, categories, and key-value pairs makes the creation of a browse node for every possible combination prohibitive in all but the simplest applications. Methods and systems to identify which search result pages should be converted to browse nodes are disclosed herein.
    Type: Grant
