Abstract
A network-based, integrated advertising and data searching system, and method for implementing the system, the system enhances the advertising exposure probability of transaction-enabling, associative discernible content ‘ADC’ elements proximately arranged on a website by storing, accessing and displaying transaction-enabling ADC element-related files in accordance with search criteria which matches geographic-territory specific data-files and optionally matches, category or subject data-files. The ADC element-related files are configurable for display in one or more groupings or word-cloud like arrangements within a single user interface or webpage, and in one embodiment, display one or more transactionable offerings, for a product, service or activity associated with at least one advertiser/seller according to user-specified criteria, or in response to input made via a user input device in communication with browser-equipped apparatus. The ADC elements are co-locatable with inter-operable, and selectable co-locatable software application tools ‘CSATs’, and with selectable search user interface elements.
