Methods and apparatus for associating an entity with at least one search query. Some implementations are directed to methods and apparatus for identifying multiple queries associated with an entity and identifying one or more of the queries as an entity search query that provides desired search results for the entity. Some implementations are directed to methods and apparatus for identifying a particular entity and, in response to identifying the particular entity, identifying an entity search query corresponding to the particular entity.

Associating an entity with a search query

A server may identify a first address stored in a first search index; determine one or more first identifiers associated with the first address; identify a second address stored in a second search index; determine one or more second identifiers associated with the second address; map the first address to the second address based on a first identifier, of the one or more first identifiers, and a second identifier, of the one or more second identifiers; and transmit the mapping, of the first address to the second address, to a first server associated with the first search index or to a second server associated with the second search index.
