METHOD OF AND SYSTEM FOR RANKING ELEMENTS OF A NETWORK RESOURCE FOR A USER
First Claim
1. A method of ranking elements of a first network resource for a first user, the method being executable on at least one server, the method comprising:
- (a) receiving an indication of the elements of the first network resource;
(b) receiving an indication of a client device of the first user;
(c) responsive to the indication of the elements of the first network resource at least partially matching an indication of elements of a second network resource and the indication of the client device of the first user at least partially matching an indication of a client device of a second user, the second user having engaged on the client device of the second user in a past interaction with the elements of the second network resource, acquiring a context information associated with the past interaction of the second user, the context information being indicative of a relevancy factor of the elements of the first network resource to the first user; and
(d) based at least in part on the relevancy factor, determining a ranking of the elements of the first network resource by relevance to the first user and a most relevant one of the elements.

Abstract
A method of ranking elements of a first network resource for a first user is disclosed. The method is executable on a server, the method comprising receiving an indication of the elements of the first network resource, receiving an indication of a client device of the first user, responsive to the indication of the elements at least partially matching an indication of elements of a second network resource and the indication of the client device of the first user at least partially matching an indication of a client device of a second user, the second user having engaged on the client device in a past interaction with the elements of the second network resource, acquiring information associated with the past interaction of the second user, determining a ranking of the elements of the first network resource by relevance to the first user and a most relevant one of the elements.

21. A server for ranking elements of a first network resource for a first user, the first network resource being hosted by a hosting server, the server comprising:
-
a communication interface structured and configured to communicate with the hosting server via a communications network; at least one computer processor operationally connected with the communication interface and structured and configured to; (a) receive an indication of the elements of the first network resource; (b) receive an indication of a client device of the first user; (c) responsive to the indication of the elements of the first network resource at least partially matching an indication of elements of a second network resource and the indication of the client device of the first user at least partially matching an indication of a client device of a second user, the second user having engaged on the client device of the second user in a past interaction with the elements of the second network resource, acquire a context information associated with the past interaction of the second user, the context information being indicative of a relevancy factor of the elements of the first network resource to the first user; and (d) based at least in part on the relevancy factor, determine a ranking of the elements of the first network resource by relevance to the first user and a most relevant one of the elements.

22. A non-transitory computer-readable information storage medium storing program instructions that, when executed by a computer processor of a server in communication via a communications network with a hosting server hosting a first network resource, effect:
-
(a) receiving an indication of elements of the first network resource; (b) receiving an indication of a client device of a first user in respect of whom the elements are to be ranked; (c) responsive to the indication of the elements of the first network resource at least partially matching an indication of elements of a second network resource and the indication of the client device of the first user at least partially matching an indication of a client device of a second user, the second user having engaged on the client device of the second user in a past interaction with the elements of the second network resource, acquiring a context information associated with the past interaction of the second user, the context information being indicative of a relevancy factor of the elements of the first network resource to the first user; and (d) based at least in part on the relevancy factor, determining at least one of a ranking of the elements of the first network resource by relevance to the first user and a most relevant one of the elements.
