The present invention is directed to a method and system for refining a search to locate information about an item based on predetermined search categories. More specifically, the method and system dynamically display search categories based on relevancy information of a search result. A search category generally includes a set of category values which are used to filter the data entries into a subset of the search result. The data entries are returned after searching on data stores with a search query provided by a user and then the ranks of the returned data entries are determined based on a degree of relevancy with the search query. The data entries are displayed in order of the ranks and the set of category values for a search category are displayed to reflect the ranks of the data entries.
