Abstract

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for providing search results, wherein the method comprises: obtaining a plurality of search results corresponding to a query request, wherein the plurality of search results comprise one or more search result classifications, each search result classification corresponds to one or more tags; determining presentation pattern information corresponding to the search result classification based on the one or more tags corresponding to the search result classification; providing at least one of the search result classifications to the corresponding user according to the corresponding presentation pattern information. The present invention helps the user to quickly find the desired information when the user'"'"'s search demand is indefinite.
