Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, and systems for identifying and ranking digital resources relating to entities. A keyword included in a search query that is received, is determined to be a name of an entity. A database of names of distinct entities that uniquely identifies distinct entities that have a same name is searched. It is determined that the database associates the keyword with a first and a second entity. First and second resources, determined to be relevant to the first and the second entity, respectively, are identified from the database. In response to receiving the search query, search results directed to the first entity and separate search results directed to the second entity are provided. The search results include one or more links to the provided one or more resources.
