Social discovery and ranking of pages

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a computing device of a network environment may receive a search query comprising location parameters. The computing device may identify locations matching the search query. The computing device may access a particular record corresponding to the location, wherein the record indicates actions by users performed on the network environment with respect to the location. The computing device may determine, for each identified location, one or more counts of one or more types of actions. The computing device may generate a search-results page comprising references corresponding to the identified locations. Each reference may display the determined counts for the respective identified location. The references may be listed in ranked order based at least in part on their respective counts. The computing device may send to a client device of a user instructions for presenting the search-results page to the user.
