Solution Overview

Problem

Existing systems fail to effectively generate customized landing pages that cater to users' specific needs without exposing their personalization data to advertisers, leading to inefficient ad yield and user privacy concerns.

Innovation Solution

A method that involves receiving user requests for landing pages, accessing personalization data such as search history, and generating personalized landing pages hosted by a content item server within its own domain, ensuring that personalization data remains unexposed to advertisers while providing relevant content links.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If personalization data is accessed and used to generate customized landing pages, then ad relevance and user satisfaction are improved, but user privacy is compromised due to data exposure to advertisers

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvead relevanceVSAvoiduser privacy
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an intermediary mechanism where the search engine processes personalization data internally to generate customized landing pages without exposing raw personal data to advertisers. The search engine acts as a mediator that transforms personalization data into personalized content while maintaining data privacy, allowing advertisers to receive relevant personalized pages without direct access to user personal information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If personalized landing pages are generated using personalization data, then user satisfaction increases, but system complexity increases due to data processing requirements

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser satisfactionVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-processing and storing personalization data in the search engine's index structure before landing page generation is needed. User profiles, search history, and personalization preferences are maintained in advance, allowing the system to quickly generate personalized landing pages without complex real-time data processing when a user clicks an ad.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Object-affected harmful factors

If personalization data is not shared with advertisers, then user privacy is protected, but ad yield efficiency decreases due to lack of personalized targeting

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser privacyVSAvoidad yield
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements local quality by personalizing different aspects of the landing page based on user characteristics without uniformly exposing all personal data. Specific personalization attributes (such as preferred categories, past search topics, or demographic preferences) are used to customize particular sections of the landing page content, while maintaining privacy protection for sensitive information. This allows targeted personalization that improves ad yield while preserving user privacy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality
