For filtering web search results, a method includes extracting metadata attributes and associated attribute values from web search results from a web search engine. The web search results organized into a results list with web page data grouped as an entry in the results list. The metadata attributes and associated attribute values extracted from the results list. The method includes presenting the extracted metadata attributes and receiving input from the user indicating one or more selected metadata attributes and a position indication for each selected metadata attribute. Each position indication indicates where in a custom report that attribute values for each selected metadata attribute are to appear. The method includes filtering the received results list based on the selected metadata attributes and displaying the filtered results list to the user in a custom report arranged by the selected position indication for each selected metadata attribute.
