Abstract

The Enhanced Posted Listing Management (EPLM) system facilitates generating, distributing, managing and tracking posted listing that are based on a sponsor'"'"'s underlying data entry. The underlying data entry may be configured as an advertisement or offer for any number of goods, services or opportunities. As an example, the data entry may be a posting on specialized search facilitation site, such as Monster.com. The posted listings may be distributed to a posted listing aggregation web site, such as an online classified web site. Advantageously, the post EPLM system incorporates additional support resources into posted distributed listings. The additional support resources facilitate web user tracking and posted listing maintenance. Accordingly, the EPLM enable a posted listing sponsor to effectively and efficiently access posted listing performance and manage one or more posted listings.
