The present invention provides a new method of creating and distributing a customized query. A first user first submits a first query comprising a plurality of query terms and display options to a search engine through a user interface. Based on the query results returned from the search engine, the user can further modify his input. The search engine constructs a first URL in response to the first query. A second user who receives the first URL can search within the query results by refining the first query. The second user can also create a second query through modifying the first query according to his preferences, and then pass a second URL constructed by the search engine to another user.
