Abstract

One feature provides a configurable system that allows web site operators/administrators to dynamically identify consumer behavior, formulate different marketing strategies for the same product depending on consumer triggers, and dynamically generating web pages that present different marketing content to consumers based on their segments. Such configurable system may implement behavior-based targeting (BBT) where different marketing strategies for the same product or service may be defined by a web administrator, and different marketing content may be presented to consumers of the same product based on their identified behavior or interests.

Claims

1. A method for implementing targeted online marketing strategies on a web site based on consumer behavior, the method comprising:

defining segments for categorizing consumers;

defining triggers for placing the consumers into the segments;

defining content to be displayed to consumers categorized into each defined segment, wherein the content is based on a marketing strategy targeting a particular type of consumer;

identifying a behavior for the consumer visiting the web site;

categorizing the consumer into a segment based on interests implied by the consumer behavior; and

dynamically generating a web page targeted to the consumer to market a particular product or service to the consumer according to the marketing strategy for the segment in which the consumer is categorized.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

reassigning the consumer to a new segment based on subsequent consumer behavior in selecting content, categories or links on the web site.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the consumer behavior is identified by how many times the consumer visits the web site.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the consumer behavior is defined by at least one of the first and last web page the consumer visited.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the consumer behavior is defined by the amount of time a consumer spends visiting a particular web page.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein segmentation triggers include website pages and product-related content that, when viewed, trigger the behavioral segmentation of a consumer.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein search terms used by the consumer imply a consumer interests.

8. The method of claim 1, wherein content of the same web page is dynamically modified and displayed to consumers according to the segment into which they are categorized.

9. The method of claim 1, wherein the method is implemented as a software tool that may be configured by web administrators to present their products and/or services on their distinct websites.

10. The method of claim 1, wherein the method is implemented as a software tool that allows defining different marketing or sales strategies and targeted web page content for consumers of different behavioral segments.

11. The method of claim 1, wherein different consumer behavior results on different content being presented for the same web page.

12. A processing device adapted to implement targeted online marketing strategies on a web site based on consumer behavior, comprising:

means for defining segments for categorizing consumers;

means for defining triggers for placing the consumers into the segments;

means for defining content to be displayed to consumers categorized into each defined segment, wherein the content is based on a marketing strategy targeting a particular type of consumer;

means for identifying a behavior for the consumer visiting the web site;

means for categorizing the consumer into a segment based on interests implied by the consumer behavior; and

means for dynamically generating a web page targeted to the consumer to market a particular product or service to the consumer according to the marketing strategy for the segment in which the consumer is categorized.

13. The processing device of claim 12, further comprising:

means for reassigning the consumer to a new segment based on subsequent consumer behavior in selecting content, categories or links on the web site.

14. The processing device of claim 12, wherein different consumer behavior results on different content being presented for the same web page.

15. A method for implementing targeted online marketing strategies based on consumer behavior, the method comprising:

defining segments for categorizing consumers;

defining triggers for placing the consumers into the segments;

defining content to be displayed to consumers categorized into each defined segment, wherein the content is based on a marketing strategy targeting a particular type of consumer;

receiving information related to online behavior for the consumer visiting a web site;

categorizing the consumer into a segment based on interests implied by the consumer behavior; and

sending dynamically generated web page content targeted to the consumer according to the marketing strategy for the segment in which the consumer is categorized.

16. The method of claim 15, wherein the web page is generated in response to a web page request from a user interface.

17. The method of claim 15, wherein the received information relates to consumer behavior in reaching the web site or navigating the website, and different consumer online behavior results on a different content being presented for the same web page.

18. The method of claim 15, wherein the consumer online behavior includes at least one of:

amount of time spent viewing particular content on the web site;

how recently a particular content was viewed;

how frequently a particular content was viewed; and

and what was the first content viewed when arriving at the web site.

19. A method for implementing targeted online marketing strategies based on consumer behavior, the method comprising:

receiving a request from a consumer network device to provide one or more web pages for a web site;

collecting information related to online behavior for the consumer visiting a web site;

sending the collected information for the consumer to a web server;

receiving a dynamically generated web page specifically customized for the consumer based on the collected online behavior; and

providing the received web page to the consumer network device.

20. The method of claim 19, wherein the collected information relates to consumer behavior in reaching the web site or navigating the website, and different consumer online behavior results on a different content being presented for the same web page.
