CONTENT RANKING AND SERVING ON A MULTI-USER DEVICE OR INTERFACE
First Claim
1. A method for providing content at a multi-user interface, comprising:
- obtaining user characteristics for a plurality of users associated with the multi-user interface;
applying a set of derivation rules to the user characteristics to derive a set of user characteristics for the multi-user interface; and
selecting content for the multi-user interface based on the set of user characteristics.

Abstract
The effectiveness of targeted content delivery at a multi-user interface can be directly linked to a proper targeting of users. A way of improving targeted content delivery at a multi-user interface can be to determine which users should be targeted based on one or more criteria. The present technology provides various methodologies for selecting one or more users associated with a multi-user interface to receive targeted content. Such users can be selected based on criteria associated with a ranking or priority of the users, criteria associated with an analysis of their interactions with the multi-user interface, criteria based on their most common characteristics, or any combination thereof. The user characteristics associated with such identified used can then be utilized to determine which content should be delivered to the multi-user interface.
