Abstract
The present inventions may be implemented by tools enabling preferred domain positioning on a registration website. An example may comprise a computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by a server computer, cause the server to receive a bid from a registry seeking such preferred placement for a domain (that may be administered by the registry), generate a quality score for the domain, and determine the preferred placement based upon the bid and the quality score.
Claims58
A non-transitory computer-readable media comprising a plurality of instructions that, when executed by at least one server computer, cause at least one of said at least one server computer to:
- A) receive a bid from a registry seeking a preferred placement on a domain registration website for a domain administered by said registry;
- B) generate a quality score for said domain;
- and
- C) determine said preferred placement based upon said bid and said quality score.
At least one server computer communicatively coupled to a network comprising computer-readable code that, when executed by said at least one server computer, causes an application programming interface running on said at least one server computer to:
- A) receive from a registry a procedure call comprising a bid seeking a preferred placement on a domain registration website for a domain administered by said registry;
- and
- B) responsive to receipt of said procedure call, display said domain in said preferred placement, said preferred placement being based upon said bid and a quality score for said domain.
A method, comprising:
- A) receiving, using a network, a bid from a registry seeking a preferred placement on a domain registration website for a domain administered by said registry;
- B) generating, by at least one server computer communicatively coupled to said network, a quality score for said domain;
- C) determining, by at least one of said at least one server computer, said preferred placement based upon said bid and said quality score;
- D) generating, by said at least one server computer, said domain registration website depicting said domain in said preferred placement;
- and
- E) storing said domain registration website depicting said domain in said preferred placement in a non-transitory storage medium.
A method, comprising:
- generating, by at least one server computer communicatively coupled to a network, a domain registration website depicting a domain administered by a registry in a preferred placement, said preferred placement being based upon a bid from a registry seeking said preferred placement and a quality score for said domain;
- and
- transmitting, over the network, said domain registration website depicting said domain administered by said registry for display.
