In a click-to-call (C2C) communication environment, a web client of a computing terminal is configured to initiate a C2C call when a user selects a call tag provided in a web page being presented to the user. The call is intended to be established between a remote endpoint associated with the call tag and one of either the computing terminal or another terminal associated with the user. If the C2C call is directed to an automated system and placed in a queue or on hold, the present invention allows supplemental content intended for the user to be delivered to the web client from which the C2C call was initiated. The web client may present the supplemental content to the user.

A commercial search engine for searchmercials. The system manages and searches advertising media video and audio files and associating the media with one or more calls to action. The system contains Metadata utilized for various queries including search, channels of distribution and account information.

One aspect of the invention provides an advertising system using a user interface mechanism technically referred to as a ‘scrollable refresh trigger’ also known as a ‘pull-to-refresh’, to deliver advertisement. The invention presents improved methods, systems, computer readable media and apparatuses for providing responsive advertising using a scrollable refresh trigger. In at least one instance, a scrollable refresh trigger may be activated. Subsequently an advertisement may be received for embedding and display with a scrollable refresh trigger and stored. In response to a request received for sending an advertisement for embedding and display with a scrollable refresh trigger to a web browser operating on a client, an advertisement may be selected and sent to the web browser for display as part of a scrollable refresh trigger on a web page. In one arrangement, a pull-to-refresh the content items subsequently exposing the advertisement verifies a user has received an impression of the advertisement. Once the scrollable refresh trigger has been activated and the advertisement exposed, a receipt of an impression of the advertisement may be recorded. Additionally the awareness of an advertisement may be measured for a target audience and reported to advertisers. In various embodiments, a click on the exposed advertisement may result in the user being sent / transferred to the advertisers content which may take the form of but not limited to text, image, rich media, expandable media, game, video, audio clip, phone number for click-to-call or other multi-media. Additionally, the click through rate (CTR) or conversion rate (CR) of an advertisement may be measured for a target audience and reported to advertisers.

The invention relates to a simple communication system and a method thereof. The system is used to establish a call from the second user to the first user, and includes an object creation module, object downloading module, and channel establishing module. The object creation module generates communication application module according to notice path for the second user. The object downloading module informs the second user to download and install the communication application module, so a click-to-call icon is generated on a communication terminal of the second user. The channel establishing module establishes a communication channel between the second user and the first user. When the click-to-call icon is trigged by the second user, the channel establishing module establishes the communication channel. The channel establishing module is not allowed to accept the request of the first user to establish the communication channel. The channel establishing module does not accept the request from the first user to establish the communication channel.
