  • Ranking search results and recommendations
    Patent number: 11238516
    Abstract: When a user selects an item at an online marketplace and subsequently provides a search query to the online marketplace, search results or recommendations received from the online marketplace in response to the search query may be displayed based on whether the search results or recommendations would satisfy a requirement established by a source of the selected item. The requirement may relate to a minimum cost threshold, or a minimum number of items. Any search results or recommendations that would, if selected, cause the requirement to be met or exceeded may be preferentially displayed to the user above, or in a more prominent manner, than search results or recommendations that would not, if selected, cause the requirement to be met or exceeded.
