Systems and methods for smart publishing
Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media configured to create objects associated with links to content items shared within a social networking system, the content items from content sources. Content sources having pages on the social networking system fanned by a user are determined. Objects associated with (links to) content items from the content sources having content source representations, such as pages, on the social networking system fanned by the user are collected. An aggregate score for a collected object associated with a link is determined based on popularity of a content item associated with the link within the social networking system and interest of the user in the content item. The collected object associated with the link is provided to be ranked for potential presentation of the link to the user based on satisfaction of a threshold.
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
creating, by a computing system, objects associated with links to content items in response to sharing of the links within a social networking system and determination that the links satisfy a set of criteria;
determining, by the computing system, content sources having pages on the social networking system engaged with by a user;
collecting, by the computing system, objects associated with links to content items from the content sources having pages on the social networking system in response to the user engaging with the pages;
determining, by the computing system, an aggregate score for a collected object associated with a link based on popularity of a content item associated with the link within the social networking system and interest of the user in the content item, wherein the determining an aggregate score for a collected object associated with a link includes:
determining a score relating to the popularity of the content item associated with the link based on interactions of users of the social networking system with the content item; and
determining a score relating to the interest of the user in the content item based on a comparison between topics reflected in the content item and user interest in topics identified from historical user interactions;
providing, by the computing system, the collected object associated with the link to be ranked for potential presentation of the link to the user based on satisfaction of a threshold; and
providing, by the computing system, the link through the social networking system for presentation to the user based on the satisfaction of the threshold.
2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the link includes a URL.
3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:
detecting the links to content items shared within the social networking system.
4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the set of criteria includes availability of metadata regarding the content item.
5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:
generating a mapping between domains of the content sources and content source representations on the social networking system.
6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:
removing objects associated with links that were previously shared by at least one of the content sources and connections of the user.
7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:
combining the score relating to the popularity of the content item and the score relating to the interest of the user in the content item to produce the aggregate score.
8. The computer-implemented method of claim 7 , further comprising:
sorting the objects based on their associated aggregate scores; and
providing highest scoring objects based on the threshold to be ranked for potential presentation to the user.
9. A system comprising:
at least one processor; and
a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to perform:
creating objects associated with links to content items in response to sharing of the links within a social networking system and determination that the links satisfy a set of criteria;
determining content sources having pages on the social networking system engaged with by a user;
collecting objects associated with links to content items from the content sources having pages on the social networking system in response to the user engaging with the pages;
determining an aggregate score for a collected object associated with a link based on popularity of a content item associated with the link within the social networking system and interest of the user in the content item, wherein the determining an aggregate score for a collected object associated with a link includes:
determining a score relating to the popularity of the content item associated with the link based on interactions of users of the social networking system with the content item; and
determining a score relating to the interest of the user in the content item based on a comparison between topics reflected in the content item and user interest in topics identified from historical user interactions;
providing the collected object associated with the link to be ranked for potential presentation of the link to the user based on satisfaction of a threshold; and
providing, by the computing system, the link through the social networking system for presentation to the user based on the satisfaction of the threshold.
10. The system of claim 9 , further comprising:
generating a mapping between domains of the content sources and content source representations on the social networking system.
11. The system of claim 9 , further comprising:
removing objects associated with links that were previously shared by at least one of the content sources and connections of the user.
12. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a computing system, cause the computing system to perform a method comprising:
creating objects associated with links to content items in response to sharing of the links within a social networking system and determination that the links satisfy a set of criteria;
determining content sources having pages on the social networking system engaged with by a user;
collecting objects associated with links to content items from the content sources having pages on the social networking system in response to the user engaging with the pages;
determining an aggregate score for a collected object associated with a link based on popularity of a content item associated with the link within the social networking system and interest of the user in the content item, wherein the determining an aggregate score for a collected object associated with a link includes:
determining a score relating to the popularity of the content item associated with the link based on interactions of users of the social networking system with the content item; and
determining a score relating to the interest of the user in the content item based on a comparison between topics reflected in the content item and user interest in topics identified from historical user interactions;
providing the collected object associated with the link to be ranked for potential presentation of the link to the user based on satisfaction of a threshold; and
providing, by the computing system, the link through the social networking system for presentation to the user based on the satisfaction of the threshold.
13. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 12 , further comprising:
generating a mapping between domains of the content sources and content source representations on the social networking system.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 12 , further comprising:
removing objects associated with links that were previously shared by at least one of the content sources and connections of the user.
