The selection of search results to display can be based at least in part upon an intent determined for a search query. Various intent terms can be used to specify intent or context for a search query in order to obtain a certain type of result. The intent terms can be suggested or provided to a user in such a way as to train the user as to their existence and usage. A submitted search query is analyzed to detect the intent term and determine the overall intent of the query. One or more targeted intent queries are executed against determined data sources to obtain results relevant to that intent, such as new content items for a particular topic or items that are similar to those offered by a particular store. A diverse assortment of results can then be presented to the user.
