Abstract
Match criteria are provided to specify when advertisements will be shown, for instance in a search environment. Input such as search queries can be represented in a simplified form such as an implicit and/or explicit wildcard expression. Advertisers or other entities can bid on terms such that advertisements or similar content are presented when the terms match an expansion of a simplified input. Matching ads can subsequently be displayed alone or in combination with query expansion suggestions and/or query results.
