Methods to increase traffic on online art platforms Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of network traffic enhancement. Specifically, it relates to a method for increasing traffic on an online art platform, thereby providing traffic and browsing interest to the art trading platform, enhancing interaction between users and art creators, further increasing the possibility of art transactions, and also having an art education aspect. Background Technology

[0002] Artworks are the crystallization of human cultural creation. Paintings, calligraphy, sculptures, and other works of art can all have collectible value. For scholars, artists, and collectors, acquiring such artworks is a life goal, especially rare pieces. Writers and collectors often exhibit these works to allow more people to access them, serving not only an educational function in promoting art but also enabling potential collectors and buyers to understand the artwork's value. In recent years, influenced by the rise of technology and the internet, people have increasingly more opportunities to showcase, market, and trade goods through online platforms. Consequently, more and more online art trading platforms have been developed, such as the Taiwan Invention Patent 200809674 "Art Transaction Matching Method and System," the Taiwan Utility Model Patent M558950 "Art Appreciation Platform System," and the Taiwan Invention Patent I603275 "Exhibition Announcement Marketing System," which provide opportunities for art exhibition and marketing, further increasing the likelihood of subsequent transactions.

[0003] However, due to the unique expertise required for each type of artwork, the different types of artworks that people prefer, the high prices of artworks, and the need for advanced knowledge in authenticating fakes, art has become a niche market. As a result, the aforementioned art trading platforms have significantly limited website traffic and pageviews, making it difficult to attract users to browse continuously and visit more sites, thus hindering art trading and education.

[0004] Furthermore, an artist's rise to fame is not instantaneous, but rather the result of years of hard work and a stroke of luck. While the increasing prices of their works after achieving fame can effectively improve an artist's life, many artists, before gaining recognition, often suffer from insufficient income, impacting their quality of life and even forcing them to abandon their art or sell their works at low prices to make ends meet. Consequently, upon achieving fame, they may not reap the benefits or even have to spend huge sums to repurchase their works. Therefore, addressing the issue of insufficient traffic on existing online platforms for art trading and exhibition presents a crucial opportunity to increase art market transaction volume and enhance the visibility of artists.

[0005] In other words, the insufficient traffic on existing art trading platforms leads to a decrease in subsequent art transactions and circulation, which in turn prevents the artists from gaining recognition. Therefore, how to solve the aforementioned problem is the subject of this invention.

[0050] Step (S01): At least one browsing member starts online and registers to log in to a cloud server of an art network platform by using at least one browsing terminal device and / or at least one artwork member starts online by using at least one upload terminal device. First, the cloud server (10) of the art network platform is turned on, and at least one browsing member turns on their browsing terminal device (30) and / or at least one artwork member turns on their upload terminal device (40), so that the turned-on browsing terminal device (30) and the upload terminal device (40) can form an online state with the cloud server (10) via the Internet (100), and simultaneously execute a built-in exhibition management program (110) to transmit or receive data, so that the browsing member and the artwork member can register and / or log in to the art network platform in the exhibition reward management program (100) respectively, so that the basic data of the browsing member and the artwork member can be stored in the browsing member database (151) and artwork member database (152) of the data module (15) of the cloud server (10).

[0051] Step (S01a): The aforementioned browsing member uses all their browsing terminal devices to deposit at least one reward amount and / or the aforementioned artwork member uses all their uploading terminal devices to purchase at least one platform point: After logging into the cloud server (10) using their browsing terminal device (30), the aforementioned browsing member can first deposit at least one reward amount into their personal account through the reward management program (100). This deposit amount can be used for transactions within the artwork network platform or refunded to a general bank account. In addition, the aforementioned artwork member logs into the cloud server (10) using their uploading terminal device (40). Afterwards, individuals may purchase at least one platform point from the online art platform through the exhibition reward management program (100) as needed. The transaction of the platform point is not limited to the online art platform, the browsing member, or the artwork member. The platform point can only be used for transactions within the online art platform and cannot be converted into the aforementioned stored value. The stored value of the aforementioned browsing member and the platform point of the aforementioned artwork member are stored in the browsing member database (151) and artwork member database (152) of the data module (15) of the cloud server host (10), respectively.

[0052] Step (S02): Upload at least one artwork to the aforementioned artwork network platform through the aforementioned work member's upload terminal device for display: The aforementioned registered and logged-in writer member can use his upload terminal device (40) to upload at least one artwork and pay platform points for display based on the value of the aforementioned artwork. The artwork he uploads can be a painting, calligraphy, sculpture, film, music, literary works or other art works that can be embedded in the artwork network platform, as shown in Figure 4, so that the artwork network platform can display the audio-visual data of multiple artworks. At the same time, when the aforementioned work member uploads his artwork, the artwork network platform can deduct the platform points set in the aforementioned work member's account based on the value of the aforementioned artwork.

[0053] Step (S03): The aforementioned browsing member can use their browsing terminal device to browse the aforementioned artworks on the art network platform of the aforementioned cloud server. The aforementioned browsing member can perform at least one reward event for individual artworks. Then, as shown in Figures 4 and 5, the aforementioned browsing member searches for and browses the audio-visual data of the aforementioned artworks on the art network platform through their browsing terminal device (30). The browsing member can perform a reward event for a specific artwork according to their personal interests and preferences. The reward event has a certain reward amount, such as 1 point (which can correspond to 1 yuan), 10 points (which can correspond to 10 yuan) or 100 points (which can correspond to 10 yuan). [0 yuan], and the cash flow unit (16) of the cloud server host (10) deducts the corresponding stored amount from the cash flow account of the aforementioned browsing member in the browsing member database (151) according to the amount of the reward [as shown in Figure 6]. Moreover, each time the aforementioned browsing member performs a reward event, the amount of the reward shall not exceed one-quarter of the lottery qualification amount in the following step (S06). Furthermore, the aforementioned browsing member can only perform a reward event once per day for the same artwork. In addition, the artwork member cannot perform a reward event for their own uploaded or all artworks, so as to increase the number of times the browsing member visits the artwork network platform and performs reward events, which can increase the traffic and interactivity of the artwork network platform.

[0054] Step (S04): The reward amount of the aforementioned reward event is allocated to the work members of the individual artworks specified in each reward event according to the set ratio through the aforementioned art network platform, and the work members are notified: The art network platform can use the money flow unit (16) of the cloud server host (10) to allocate the reward amount of the individual artwork reward event according to the set ratio, such as 50% of the reward amount, and the money flow unit (16) transfers the allocated amount to the money flow account of the corresponding writer member of the individual artwork. The cloud server host (10) of the aforementioned art network platform also notifies the upload terminal device (40) of the writer member, which displays the reward management program (100) to show the notification.

[0055] Step (S05): Use the aforementioned art network platform to count the total amount of all the reward events of the individual browsing members among the aforementioned browsing members to form a total reward amount: The art network platform can periodically count all reward events (such as every day, every week or every month) and add up the total amount of all the reward events of the individual browsing members among the aforementioned browsing members, so that the total reward amount is added up to a total reward amount.

[0056] Step (S06): When the total amount of rewards accumulated by an individual browsing member reaches a certain amount required for a lottery, the individual browsing member will be eligible to participate in the lottery. When the total amount of rewards accumulated by any individual browsing member on the art network platform reaches a certain amount required for a lottery (e.g., 356 points), the individual browsing member will be eligible to participate in the lottery on the art network platform.

[0057] Step (S07): When the number of individual browsing members who have obtained the aforementioned lottery qualification reaches a predetermined number, the aforementioned art network platform executes a lottery event. In each lottery event, the number of winners exceeds half or more of the number of individual browsing members participating in that lottery event, and the prize amount won by half or more of the winning individual browsing members exceeds the aforementioned lottery qualification amount. Simultaneously, the prize money issued in this lottery event does not exceed half of the total lottery qualification amount for all individual browsing members. As shown in Figure 7, when the cumulative number of individual browsing members who have obtained lottery qualification reaches a predetermined number (e.g., 10, 100, or 1000), the aforementioned art network platform executes a lottery event. The number of winners in each lottery event is set to exceed the predetermined number of individual browsing members participating in that lottery event. If half or more of the number of individual browsing members (e.g., 10, 100, or 1000) (e.g., 5, 50, or 500 or more) and the number of winning individual browsing members (e.g., 5, 50, or 500) (e.g., 3, 26, or 251 or more) has a prize amount exceeding the aforementioned lottery eligibility amount (e.g., 365 points), and the total prize money issued does not exceed half of the total lottery eligibility amount of all individual browsing members participating in this lottery event (e.g., 3650 points, 36500 points, or 365000 points) (e.g., 1825 points, 18250 points, or 182500 points), and furthermore, individual browsing members who do not win any prizes in the aforementioned lottery event can receive platform points equivalent to their lottery eligibility amount, which can be used for point trading in step (S01a);

[0058] Step (S08): The winning amount of this lottery event is allocated to the corresponding individual browsing members through the aforementioned art network platform, and the individual browsing members are notified: After the aforementioned art network platform completes the lottery event, it can notify all participating individual browsing members of the lottery results, and at the same time, the payment unit (16) transfers the winning amount to the corresponding individual browsing member's payment account; and

[0059] Step (S09): Use the aforementioned art network platform to store and record the completed reward events and lottery events, and at the same time perform the system update: The art network platform can store the results of the aforementioned reward events and lottery events in the reward event database (155) and lottery event database (156) of the data module (15), respectively, and simultaneously update the data of the reward management program (100) displayed in the participating browsing terminal device (30) and upload terminal device (40) through the Internet (20).

[0060] As described above, this invention, based on a method to increase traffic to an online art platform, utilizes unique tipping and lottery events to encourage users to tip their favorite artworks.
