Abstract

The present invention relates to a system for managing a customized advertisement that uses an indicator, the system including: a layer that is stacked on a surface of a specific web page at a size corresponding to a web page and is output on a monitor; a layer forming module that activates the layer when the specific web page is activated and controls the size of the layer to the size of the web page; at least one indicator that is included in the layer and is associated with coordinate values corresponding to specific contents or space positions to be exposed on the surface of the specific web page; and indicator generating module that generates the indicator; an indicator establishing module that forms advertisement contents in the indicator and determines an advertisement progress by a bidding unit performing a bid for an advertiser target; and a calculation module that calculates advertisement costs according to the progress of the advertisement. In the system for managing the customized advertisement that uses the indicator in the web page according to the present invention, the layer is formed on the surface of the web page and the advertisement means referred to as the indicator is displayed on the layer, such that the advertisement can directly be implemented on the web page at low cost and still stimulate the user'"'"'s curiosity, making it possible to create a new advertisement paradigm, which can stimulate the interest of advertisers and users pursuing various desires.

Claims

1-9. -9. (canceled)

10. A system for managing a customized advertisement, comprising:

an indicator management program located on a client server;

a layer that is stacked on a surface of a specific web page at a size corresponding to a web page and is output from a monitor;

a layer forming module that activates the layer when the specific web page is activated and controls the size of the layer to the size of the specific web page;

at least one indicator that is included in the layer and is associated with coordinate values corresponding to specific contents or space positions to be exposed on the surface of the specific web page;

an indicator generating module that generates the indicator; and

an indicator establishing module that forms advertisement content in the indicator.

11. The system of claim 10, wherein the indicator establishing module determines an advertisement progress by use of a bidding unit performing a bid for an advertiser target;

and the system further comprises a calculation module that calculates advertisement costs according to progress of the advertisement.

12. The system of claim 10, wherein the layer forming module further includes a layer transparency controlling unit that controls transparency, brightness, or chroma of the layer.

13. The system of claim 10, wherein the layer forming module further includes a multi-layer forming unit that forms a plurality of layers to be stacked on the specific web page.

14. The system of claim 10, wherein the indicator generating module further includes a storing unit that stores the indicator in any one of a mobile format, an image format, a moving picture format, and a HTML format.

15. The system of claim 10, wherein:

the indicator management program includes a search engine; and

the indicator establishing module further includes a keyword establishing unit, such that when a user searches specific keywords through the search engine, the keyword establishing unit activates the indicator having contents associated with the specific keywords immediately after a web page indicating the search result is exposed.

16. The system of claim 10, wherein the indicator establishing module further includes an exposed time controlling unit that controls time when the layer and the indicator are continued in the specific web page.

17. The system of claim 10, further including an access information grasp module that analyzes user access information of the specific web page on which the indicator is displayed.

18. The system of claim 17, further including at least one of:

a web page moving grasp module that grasps the user access information of the specific web page for a user having the indicator management program and transmits the grasped user access information to the access information grasp module, the web page moving grasp module including;

a moving start message generating unit that generates a moving start message after accessing the specific web page and includes an ID issued so as to identify each specific web page;

a moving complete message generating unit that, after the moving start message is generated, generates a moving complete message at an instant of recognizing the specific web page and includes URL information of the specific web page and assignment information recording whether the specific web page is a main page or a sub page through the ID;

a document complete message generating unit that generates a document complete message when the loading of all the specific web pages is completed and includes information analyzing the movement of the specific web pages; and

a message database generating unit that generates a message database by compiling the moving start, moving complete, and document complete messages;

wherein the message database provides the user access information for each specific page and is transmitted to the access information grasp module.

19. The system of claim 10, further including an interlocking module that interlocks the indicator information with various information devices, such as mobile phones, PDAs, MP3, PMP, TV.

20. A computer-implemented method for managing customized advertisements, comprising:

stacking a layer on a surface of a specific web page at a size corresponding to a web page and is output from a monitor;

activating the layer when the specific web page is activated and controls the size of the layer to the size of the specific web page;

associating at least one indicator included in the layer with coordinate values corresponding to specific contents or space positions to be exposed on the surface of the specific web page;

generating the indicator; and

forming advertisement content in the indicator.

21. The method of claim 20, further comprising:

determining an advertisement progress by a bidding unit performing a bid for an advertiser target; and

calculating advertisement costs according to the progress of the advertisement.

22. The method of claim 20, wherein the layer has controllable transparency, brightness, or chroma.

23. The method of claim 20, wherein a plurality of layers are stacked on the specific web page.

24. The method of claim 20, wherein the at least one indicator is stored in any one of a mobile format, an image format, a moving picture format, and a HTML format.

25. The method of claim 20, further comprising:

a search engine; and

when a user searches specific keywords through the search engine, activating the indicator having contents associated with the specific keywords immediately after a web page indicating the search results is exposed.

26. The method of claim 20, wherein the indicator and the layer are exposed on the specific webpage for a pre-determined amount of time.

27. The method of claim 20, further comprising:
