Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for selecting keywords for resources. In one aspect, a method includes identifying a particular online resource that includes non-text content. Co-visitation data are obtained for the particular resource. The co-visitation data specify one or more co-requested online resources for the particular online resource. Each of the co-requested online resources were requested by a user device within a threshold period of the request for the particular online resource by the user device. Keywords are identified for each of the co-requested online resources, and can include keywords that were selected based on text content of the co-requested online resource. One or more of the identified keywords are selected as keywords for the particular resource.
