NETWORK REAL ESTATE ANALYSIS
First Claim
1. A method for analyzing performance of content items within a network site, comprising:
- at a server computer having access to network activity information on the network site, determining, for each of the content items (ci) residing at a network address within the network site, a measure of how many clicks it takes, on average, for a user to reach ci during a session at the network site;
determining a real-estate performance value for ci utilizing the measure associated with ci; and
generating a graph displaying the content items, wherein the graph is generated utilizing the real-estate performance value for ci.

Abstract
A method can be used to analyze the “real-estate” performance of content items within a network site. The method can comprise determining the click distance to reach each content item and determining the performance of each content item. The method can also comprise calculating a predicted value for performance based on statistical relationship between location and performance observed in a population of content items. The method can comprise comparing the predicted and actual performance. If a content item has an actual performance greater than its predicted performance, then it may be promoted to a better location in the site and the converse for poorer performing content. Such an analysis may be performed using a graph or tabular data.

15. A data processing system for analyzing performance of content items within a network site, comprising:
-
a storage location storing network activity information on the network site; and a server computer coupled to the storage location comprising a processor and a computer readable storage medium storing instructions translatable by the processor to cause the server computer to perform; determining, for each of the content items (ci) residing at a network address within the network site, a measure of how many clicks it takes, on average, for a user to reach ci during a session at the network site; determining a real-estate performance value for ci utilizing the measure associated with ci; and generating a graph displaying the content items, wherein the graph is generated utilizing the real-estate performance value for ci. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
