Abstract

A system and method generates a popularity score for a first video based at least in part on first popularity data. The popularity score indicative of a popularity of the first video. The system and method retrieves first historical data including historical popularity of a second video submitted by an owner of the first video, in view of determining that the popularity score for the first video is greater than a predetermined value. The system and method determines that the second video is eligible to participate in a video performance sharing program based at least in part on the first historical data. The system and method generates a communication for a client device associated with the owner of the second video to invite the owner of the second video to participate in the video performance sharing program.

Claims (50)

1. A method comprising:

generating, by a processor, a popularity score for a first video based at least in part on first popularity data, the popularity score indicative of a popularity of the first video;

retrieving, by the processor, first historical data comprising historical popularity of a second video submitted by an owner of the first video, in view of determining that the popularity score for the first video is greater than a predetermined value, wherein the owner of the first video and the second video are a same owner;

determining, by the processor, that the second video is eligible to participate in a video performance sharing program based at least in part on the first historical data comprising historical popularity of the second video submitted by the owner of the first video; and

generating, by the processor, a communication for a client device associated with the owner of the second video to invite the owner of the second video to participate in the video performance sharing program.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first popularity data is indicative of a number of times the first video has been viewed in a predetermined period of time.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining ownership of the second video, wherein the communication for the client device associated with the owner of the second video to invite the owner of the second video to participate in the video performance sharing program is generated responsive to determining that the second video is eligible to participate in the video performance sharing program and a user of the client device is the owner of the second video.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the communication comprises a graphical input that allows the owner of the second video to activate features associated with the video performance sharing program.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining second historical data for the owner of the second video, wherein determining that the second video is eligible to participate in the video performance sharing program is based on the first historical data associated with the second video and the second historical data for the owner.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

associating a secondary content item with the second video, in response to determining the second video is eligible to be presented with secondary content; and

providing a reward to the owner of the second video based at least in part on user accesses of the secondary content item.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

creating a reward account for the owner of the second video; and

activating the reward account.

8. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, in response to execution by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

generating, by the processor, a popularity score for a first video based at least in part on first popularity data, the popularity score indicative of a popularity of the first video;

retrieving, by the processor, first historical data comprising historical popularity of a second video submitted by an owner of the first video, in view of determining that the popularity score for the first video is greater than a predetermined value, wherein the owner of the first video and the second video are a same owner;

determining, by the processor, that the second video is eligible to participate in a video performance sharing program based at least in part on the first historical data; and

generating, by the processor, a communication for a client device associated with the owner of the second video to invite the owner of the second video to participate in the video performance sharing program.

9. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the first popularity data is indicative of a number of times the first video has been viewed in a predetermined period of time.

10. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , the operations further comprising:

determining ownership of the second video, wherein the communication for the client device associated with the owner of the second video to invite the owner of the second video to participate in the video performance sharing program is generated responsive to determining that the second video is eligible to participate in the video performance sharing program and a user of the client device is the owner of the second video.

11. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , the communication comprises a graphical input that allows the owner of the second video to activate features associated with the video performance sharing program.

12. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , the operations further comprising:

determining second historical data for the owner of the second video, wherein determining that the second video is eligible to participate in the video performance sharing program is based on the first historical data associated with the second video and the second historical data for the owner.

13. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , the operations further comprising:

associating a secondary content item with the second video, in response to determining the second video is eligible to be presented with secondary content; and

providing a reward to the owner of the second video based at least in part on user accesses of the secondary content item.

14. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , the operations further comprising:

creating a reward account for the owner of the second video; and

activating the reward account.

15. A system comprising:

a memory; and

a processor, coupled to the memory, the processor configured to:

generate a popularity score for a first video based at least in part on first popularity data, the popularity score indicative of a popularity of the first video;

retrieve first historical data comprising historical popularity of a second video submitted by an owner of the first video, in view of determining that the popularity score for the first video is greater than a predetermined value, wherein the owner of the first video and the second video are a same owner;

determine that the second video is eligible to participate in a video performance sharing program based at least in part on the first historical data; and

generate a communication for a client device associated with the owner of the second video to invite the owner of the second video to participate in the video performance sharing program.

16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the first popularity data is indicative of a number of times the first video has been viewed in a predetermined period of time.

17. The system of claim 15 , the processor further to:

determine ownership of the second video, wherein the communication for the client device associated with the owner of the second video to invite the owner of the second video to participate in the video performance sharing program is generated responsive to determining that the second video is eligible to participate in the video performance sharing program and a user of the client device is the owner of the second video.
