Optimization of electronic media content item delivery based on past client interactions

Abstract:

An online system receives related content items from a content provider for delivery over a period of time. The system determines a rate of delivery of each related content item to users of the online system. The system delivers the related content items based on the determined rates of delivery. The system monitors a rate of client interactions with the related content items. The system adjusts the rate of delivery of each related content item based on the rate of client interactions associated with the related content item, such that higher performing related content is delivered more than lower performing related content. If the rate of delivery of the related content item decreases below a threshold, the system sets the adjusted rate of delivery of the related content item to the threshold. The system delivers the related content items to client devices based on the adjusted rates of delivery.
