ABSTRACT:
Methods, systems, and computer readable media comprising instructions for identifying needy queries for which additional responsive content is needed. A method comprises receiving a query comprising one or more terms and retrieving one or more content items identified as responsive to the query, the one or more content items ranked according to one or more ranking techniques. A score is generated for the one or more ranked content items identified as responsive to the query. A determination is thereafter made as to whether the query is needy based upon a comparison of the one or more scores associated with the one or more content items identified as responsive to the query and a needy query score threshold.
