Abstract

Monetizing brand integration within online content may be facilitated. Parameter values for parameters describing characteristics of online content, access points, and/or producers may be obtained. The user may define search queries specifying parameter values of one or more parameters. In response to the user defined search query, the system may identify online content and/or access points having parameter values that satisfy the user defined search queries. The user may specify tasks for the identified content and/or access points. The user identified tasks may be related to brand integration. The system may effectuate presentation of the user specified tasks to producers that generate a portion of the identified online content and/or access points. Performance of the user specified tasks may be evaluated to determine an outcome. The outcome may include a quantity of a desired result and/or action. The system may distribute compensation to one or more producers based on the outcome.

Claims (35)

1. A system configured to facilitate monetizing brand integration within online content, the system comprising:

one or more physical computer processors configured by computer readable instructions to:

obtain parameter values for parameters of individual online content items, the parameter values for the parameters describing online content characteristics of the individual online content items, the online content characteristics including outcome characteristics of the individual online content items describing aspects of consumer actions resulting from the individual online content items;

receive user defined search queries specifying parameter values for one or more of the parameters of the individual online content items, wherein the specified parameter values are devoid of information that identifies producers of the individual online content items;

identify individual online content items having parameter values that satisfy the user defined search queries without regard to the producers of the individual online content items, such that responsive to receipt of a first user defined search query specifying parameter values for a first set of one or more parameters, a first set of individual online content items having parameter values that satisfy the first user defined search query is identified;

receive user specified tasks for identified individual online content items included in the first set of individual online content items, the user specified tasks being related to brand integration within the identified individual online content items included in the first set of individual online content items, the user specified tasks comprising a first user specified task for the identified individual online content items included in the first set of individual online content items;

effectuate presentation of the user specified tasks to the producers associated with the identified individual online content items included in the first set of individual online content items, such that a first producer that generates a first identified individual online content item is presented with the first user specified task;

evaluate performance of the first user specified task by the first producer to determine an outcome corresponding to the first user specified task; and

distribute compensation based on the outcome, the compensation including a stored value including a representation of payment earned by the first producer.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein:

an individual online content item includes an individual video, an individual photo, or an individual social media post.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the user specified tasks include one or more of integrating an advertisement into a portion of online content, creating a portion of online content, endorsing a portion of online content, and/or promoting a portion of online content.

4.
