SOCIAL RANKING FOR ONLINE COMMERCE SELLERS

摘要

Online sellers may be ranked based on feedback given by people trusted by an individual user. The user may trust people in their social networks, as well as people who may be experts in a particular field, and the seller's ranking may be calculated by weighting reviews or feedback from trusted people higher than people unknown to the user. When used with a social campaign management system, ranking of products from multiple online sellers may include coupons or incentives that are available through the user's social network, as well as discounts or incentives that may be targeted to the user's status within their own social network.
