Methods and systems for improving bid efficiency of a content provider
First Claim
1. A method for improving a third-party content provider'"'"'s bid efficiency in an auction, comprising:
- identifying, by a bid efficiency improvement module of a data processing system, a keyword on which a third-party content provider has placed a bid to serve at least one ad;
retrieving by the bid efficiency improvement module, for the identified keyword, third-party content performance data associated with the identified keyword;
determining by the bid efficiency improvement module, for the identified keyword, that the third-party content performance data is sufficient to calculate one or more bid multipliers;
calculating by the bid efficiency improvement module, based on the third-party content performance data for the identified keyword, the one or more bid multipliers, each of the bid multipliers corresponding to at least one parameter having a plurality of discrete states; and
storing the calculated bid multipliers in a memory element of the data processing system.

Abstract
Systems and methods for improving a content provider'"'"'s bid efficiency in an auction are disclosed. A bid efficiency improvement module of a data processing system identifies a keyword on which a third-party content provider has placed a bid to serve at least one third-party content item. The module retrieves third-party content performance data for the identified keyword. The module determines that the third-party content performance data is sufficient to calculate one or more bid multipliers for the identified keyword. The bid multipliers are calculated based on the retrieved third-party content performance data. The bid multipliers are based on one of a geographic region in which the third-party content item is to be served, a time-of-day at which the third-party content item is to be served, or a type-of-device on which the third-party content item is to be served. The calculated bid multipliers are stored in a memory.
