<p>An information provision device (12) makes use of existing search functions, and presents a user with a more fitting search result. A storage unit (206) stores character strings that are to be avoided for each item of identification information for a search subject, and stores whether a user has searched for the identification information in the past and whether the user has selected the identification information. An acquisition unit (202) acquires a search result formed from coincidence information that contains identification information for the search subject which fulfils the query. A revision unit (203) revises the search result for the coincidence information according to whether the character strings that are to be avoided for the identification information are included in the query. A presentation unit (204) presents the revised search result to the user. A selection receiving unit (207) receives, from the user, an instruction for selecting the coincidence information.</p> |
