Security Trimmed results
Cross Site Content
Easy to work with LARGE sets data
Can use SharePoint 2013’s GeoLocation field type to even return results near user’s location

What’s the problem
All the results look the same
Documents and sites look the same but are not the same
This is the experience that everyone is used to.

Result Types
Result Types are a combination of conditions and display templates Conditions match properties to identify a particular type of result
The result type allows the changing of the appearance of this particular item
This is what allows us to bring our and highlight the information that is useful for each item in search.
Based on the conditions we can have specialized displays of content based on any managed property
Building a Result Type
Plumb any properties you need into search
Create the look you want with a Display Template
Hook up the template to a Result Type
Try it out with a search!
