An online concierge system generates an item graph connecting item nodes with attribute nodes of the items. Example attributes include a brand, a category, a department, or any other suitable information about the item. When the online concierge system receives a search query to identify one or more items from a customer, the online concierge system parses the search query into combinations of terms and identifies item nodes and attribute nodes related to the search query. The online concierge system identifies item nodes and attribute nodes that are likely to result in a conversion. Information about the identified nodes is presented to the customer. The customer may select an item node to purchase the item, or an attribute node to execute a new search query based on terms associated with the attribute node.
