Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for retrieving on-line information by receiving a request for a document from an information system; parsing the request for a source identifier; searching for documents in a local search system in response to the parsed request; and providing one or more responsive documents to the request.

Claims

1. A method for retrieving on-line information, comprising:

receiving a request for a document linked from a remote information system;

parsing the request for a source identifier;

searching for documents in a local search system in response to the parsed request; and

providing one or more responsive documents to the request from the remote information system based on a local search.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the source identifier comprises a referrer for the request.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein the searching further comprises performing a search based on a referrer identifier.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the searching further comprises performing a search based on a search term.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the searching further comprises performing a search based on previous user behavior for said search term.

6. The method of claim 5, wherein the previous user behavior comprises behavior from a plurality of users.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the searching further comprises performing a search based on a user profile.

8. The method of claim 1, wherein the searching further comprises performing a search based on date and time.

9. The method of claim 1, wherein the searching further comprises performing a search based on a derived search term.

10. The method of claim 9, wherein the derived search term is searched using one of:

fuzzy logic, business logic, predictive analytics, and statistical clustering.

11. The method of claim 1, wherein the searching further comprises performing a search based on one or more languages requested by a user.

12. The method of claim 1, wherein the searching further comprises performing a search based on a user nationality.

13. The method of claim 1, wherein the searching further comprises performing a search based on a resource requested by a user.

14. The method of claim 1, wherein the remote information system comprises one of:

a database, an intranet, and a global search system.

15. The method of claim 1, wherein the third-party database comprises a product comparison website.

16. A system for retrieving information, comprising:

means for receiving a request for a document from a remote information system;

means for parsing the request for a source identifier;

means for locally searching for documents in response to the parsed request; and

means for providing one or more responsive documents to the request from the remote information system.

17. The system of claim 16, wherein the source identifier comprises a referrer for the request.

18. The system of claim 17, wherein the searching further comprises means for performing a search based on the referrer.

19. The system of claim 16, wherein the searching further comprises means for performing a search based on a search term.

20. The system of claim 16, wherein the searching further comprises means for performing a search based on previous user behavior for said search term.

21. The system of claim 20, wherein the previous user behavior comprises behavior from a plurality of users.

22. The system of claim 16, wherein the searching further comprises means for performing a search based on a user profile.

23. The system of claim 16, wherein the searching further comprises means for performing a search based on date and time.

24. The system of claim 16, wherein the searching further comprises means for performing a search based on a derived search term.

25. The system of claim 24, wherein the derived search term is searched using one of:

fuzzy logic, business logic, predictive analytics, and statistical clustering.

26. The system of claim 16, wherein the searching further comprises performing a search based on the languages requested by a user.

27. The system of claim 16, wherein the searching further comprises performing a search based on a user nationality.

28. The system of claim 16, wherein the searching further comprises performing a search based on a resource requested by a user.

29. The system of claim 16, wherein the document request comprises a link from one of:

a database, an intranet, a global search system and a product comparison website.

30. The system of claim 16, wherein the document request comprises a link from a remote server.

31. The system of claim 30, wherein the server is an intranet or an extranet.

32. The system of claim 16, wherein the responsive document comprises a landing page.

33. The system of claim 32, wherein the landing page comprises a different page than the originally requested document.

34. The system of claim 32, wherein the landing page comprises a dynamic page.

35. The system of claim 32, wherein the landing page comprises marking information interpretable by a renderer of the page.

36. The system of claim 35, wherein the marking information appears on the page.

37. The system of claim 35, wherein the marking information is invisible on the page.
