Summary:A method and system for identifying search terms for placing advertisements along with search results is provided. The advertisement system selects a description of an item that is to be advertised. The advertisement system then retrieves documents that match the selected description. The advertisement system generates a score for each word of the retrieved documents that indicates relatedness of the word to the item to be advertised. After generating the scores for the words, the advertisement system identifies phrases of the words within the documents that are related to the item. The advertisement system then generates search terms for the item to be advertised from the identified phrases. The advertisement system submits the search terms and an advertisement to a search engines service for placement of a paid-for advertisement for the item.
