A set of SearchParameters are supplied to the TargetingIdeaSelector to specify how the user wants to filter the set of all possible TargetingIdeas. There is a SearchParameter for all types of inputs. SearchParameters can conceptually be broken down into two types.

• Input SearchParameters provide the seed information from which ideas should be generated or statistic information is desired (e.g. RelatedToQuerySearchParameter, RelatedToUrlSearchParameter, etc). Such SearchParameters are required for valid requests.
• Filter SearchParameters are used to trim down the results based on Attribute related information (eg. CompetitionSearchParameter, etc.).
