Abstract
Search engine results arranged according to one or more first criteria (e.g., relevancy) are obtained. The results are assigned groups within chosen or calculated relevancy ranges. The results are then resorted within each group according to one or more second criteria (e.g., payment). The groups maintain original placement relative to each other during resorting. A list of at least some of the resorted results is then created for various uses, including search or further manipulation.
