Abstract: A system and method for providing dynamic pay-for-placement advertisements via graphics-enabled email that generates a display of advertisements when the email newsletter is opened so the advertisements displayed are based on rankings at the time the email is opened instead of when the email was generated and transmitted. In one embodiment, a graphical-content email having one or more embedded advertisement image references is provided to one or more email recipients. The advertisement image reference, in one embodiment, may include query string parameters indicating the context of the image reference and/or portion of the image reference (i.e., identifying the image reference as being part of a particular newsletter email), a position of the image reference in the email display, and the like. A URL reference also may be included with each advertisement image reference (.e.g., one URL for each advertisement portion of the image to be retrieved by the advertising image reference).

Abstract: An Internet advertisement listings provider that distributes advertisements in a bid-for-placement arrangement based on the revenue-efficiency of the advertisements from the bidding advertisers that calculates the revenue to the advertising distribution system by multiplying the click-through rate times the bid amount for each click-through. Advertisers may be allowed to provide multiple advertisements to enable the advertisement listings provider to select from those various advertisements for inclusion in ranked listings based on a determined efficiency among the advertisements. The system also determines the most efficient grouping of advertisements for a limited-space output, comparing groupings of advertisements to other groups to determine the greater revenue to the distribution system.
