Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0038074A1] In a system that includes: (a) a web server system (16) which stores data bases of advertisements (16A) and viewer information (16B), (b) bidding agents (30A, 30B, and 30Z) which submit bids to display advertisements in view-ops which have certain specifications, and (c) bid selection logic (16C) which decides which bid to accept for each particular view-op. When a view-op occurs which meets the specifications in a bid, the view-op is further evaluated in terms of the comparative effectiveness of the particular advertisements on each of the sites on which the advertisement was previously displayed. The frequency of the advertisement is increased on sites that have proved effective and decreased on sites that have a lower effectiveness. The parameters are considered and evaluated on a real time basis to determine if a particular advertisement should be displayed in response to a particular view-op.
