Abstract
Exemplary embodiments are directed to determining an availability of an actual good and/or service based on activity of or with respect to a virtual icon on one or more webpages. The virtual icon can represent the actual good and/or service. The activity of or with respect to the virtual icon on the webpage(s) can be monitored and a determination of whether a conversion criteria has been satisfied can be made based on the monitored activity. The availability of the actual good or service can be based on satisfaction of the conversion criteria. In an alternative exemplary embodiment, a method of determining an availability of an actual good and/or service is provided based on a value of or with respect to a virtual icon on one or more webpages. The value of or with respect to the virtual icon on the webpage(s) can be compared to a value criteria to determine whether a value criteria has been satisfied.

-
assigning a conversion criteria to a virtual icon to be displayed on at least one webpage, the conversion criteria being associated with a probability of a specified outcome occurring in response to a random event; determining whether the conversion criteria has been satisfied based on whether the specified outcome has occurred; increasing the probability of the specified outcome occurring when the conversion criteria has not been satisfied; and decreasing the probability of the specified outcome occurring when the conversion criteria has been satisfied, wherein an actual good or service corresponding to the virtual icon is earned based on satisfaction of the conversion criteria - View Dependent Claims (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 28, 29, 30, 31)
