Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for using keywords to navigate to web pages on the Internet. In one implementation, a system includes a processor and a memory. The memory stores instructions that cause the processor to receive a search string from a website, the search string being entered by a website visitor using a browser. The processor uses a database to locate a keyword associated with the website that matches the search string. The processor determines a web page address associated with the keyword and causes the browser to be directed to the web page address. In another aspect, a method for managing keywords used for directing a browser to a web page hosted at a website, is disclosed. The method includes receiving a domain name for the website from a user and verifying that the user is authorized to provide keywords for the domain name. The method further includes receiving a keyword for the domain name from the user, receiving a web page address corresponding to the keyword from the user and storing the web page address, the keyword, and the domain name in a database to associate the web page address, the keyword, and the domain name.
Abstract:
Suggested domain names are generated based upon regional, cultural and other information received from a user. The user input is correlated against terms in a localized name suggestion database to identify terms that are regionally and/or culturally relevant to the user. Candidate domain names are generated based upon the user input, the terms derived from the database and related terms such as synonyms. The candidate localized names that are available for registration are sent to the user, which can select one or more to be registered.
