Embodiment 1

[0097] figure 1 The flow chart of the method for determining the sending time of emails for old users provided by Embodiment 1 of the present invention, as shown in figure 1 As shown in , the method may include the following steps:

[0098] Step 101: According to the pre-statistical results, obtain the n1 time slots in which the mail receiver most often opens the mail.

[0099] Since the mail recipient is an old user, there is a historical record of the mail recipient, and the statistics of the time when the mail recipient opens the mail through the historical record can obtain the n1 periods when the mail recipient most often opens the mail, The n1 time periods are recorded, and when the email sending time is determined for the mail recipient, the n1 time periods in which the mail recipient most often opens the mail can be directly obtained from the record. Where n1 is a positive integer smaller than the total number of time periods, for example, n1 is set to 3, and the gra...

Embodiment 2

[0125] image 3 The flow chart of the method for determining the sending time of emails for new users provided by Embodiment 2 of the present invention, as shown in image 3 As shown in , the method may include the following steps:

[0126] Step 301: According to the pre-statistical results, obtain the n2 time periods in which users in the area where the email recipient resides most frequently open emails.

[0127] Since the recipient of the mail is a new user, there is no historical record of the recipient of the mail, or the historical records are not enough to obtain information about the period when the user most often opens the mail. The time when the user opens the mail is counted, and the n2 time periods when the users in the area are most frequently opened the mail are obtained, and the n2 time periods are recorded. When the mail sending time is determined for the mail recipient, the mail can be directly obtained from the record The n2 periods when users in the recip...

Embodiment 3

[0153] Figure 5 The structural diagram of the device for determining the sending time of an email provided in the third embodiment of the present invention, the device can be set on the server side to complete the process shown in the first embodiment. Such as Figure 5 As shown, the device mainly includes: a first period acquisition unit 01 and a sending time determination unit 02 , and may further include a user identification unit 03 , a first behavior statistics unit 04 and a period marking unit 05 .

[0154] Wherein, the first time period acquisition unit 01 obtains n1 time periods in which mail recipients most often open emails according to the pre-statistical results of mail recipients' mail behaviors, where n1 is a positive integer less than the total number of time periods. The sending time determination unit 02 determines the mail sending time for the mail recipient by using the n1 periods when the mail recipient most often opens the mail.

[0155]In view of the w...

Abstract

Methods and apparatuses of determining a time for sending information, wherein a method includes obtaining n1 time periods during which an information receiving party most often opens information based on a result of statistics collected in advance for information related behavior of the information receiving party; and determining an information sending time for the information receiving party using the n1 time periods. The methods of present disclosure can predict a proper sending time for an information receiving party according to information related behavior of the information receiving party, which improves the probability that the information receiving party opens the information, and thereby promotes the effect of effectively reading the information.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of Internet applications, in particular to a method and device for determining information sending time. 【Background technique】 [0002] With the rapid popularization and development of the Internet, e-mail has become an important means of communication between people. When sending emails, there are mainly the following methods: [0003] The first method: the sending time of the mail is random, which is more common in the system of mass mailing. [0004] The second method: the sending time of the email is determined by the system initialization, and the initialization time can be determined according to the subscription time of the user or other static attributes of the user, which is common in subscription systems. [0005] The third method: the sending time of the email is determined by the operator. For example, if the operator sets the sending time of the email at 8 o'clock, then all emails will be s...
