1. A computer implemented system that provides Internet content to a user based on prior user experience, the computer implemented system comprising:
- an output device that transmits, via a communication network, first content to a user, wherein at least some of the first content is transmitted in response to one or more user content selections;
a data storage controller that directs storage of frequency information associated with the user related to at least one of the first content and the one or more user content selections, wherein the frequency information tracks a frequency with which the user interacts with the first content and the frequency information and is used for classify the user in one or more user classification groups;
a receiving device that receives, via a communication network, a request for content from the user; and
a computer processor that selects second content for the user based on the frequency information wherein the frequency information indicates whether the user has selected a particular subset and determines that the user has exceeded a frequency threshold based on the frequency information, wherein the frequency threshold has at least one of a bottom value and a top value such that exceeding the frequency threshold, either above or below the frequency threshold, moves the user to another classification group and further transmits the second content to the user, via a communication network.

Abstract
A system and method for providing content to a user based on at least one prior user experience are provided. First content is transmitted to a user, wherein at least some of the first content is transmitted in response to one or more user content selections. Frequency information based on the inputs and/or the first content is stored. A request for content is received from the user. Second content is selected based on the frequency information.

11. A computer implemented method for providing content to an internet user based on at least one prior user experience, the computer implemented method comprising the steps of:
-
transmitting, via a communication network, first content to a user, wherein at least some of the first content is transmitted in response to one or more user content selections; directing storage of frequency information associated with the user related to at least one of the first content and the one or more user content selections, wherein the frequency information tracks a frequency with which the user interacts with the first content and the frequency information is used to classify the user in one or more user classification groups; receiving, via a communication network, a request for content from the user; automatically selecting second content for the user based on the frequency information wherein the frequency information indicates whether the user has selected a particular subset of content; determining that the user has exceeded a frequency threshold based on the frequency information, the frequency threshold having at least one of a bottom value and a top value such that exceeding the frequency threshold, either above or below the frequency threshold, moves the user to another classification group; and transmitting, via a communication network, the second content to the user. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
