Systems and methods for real-time viewing and manipulation of information hosted on third-party systems, including metrics, false acknowledgements, and auto-completion for inputting information over a network
Systems and methods for real-time viewing and manipulation of information hosted on third-party systems are described. The system and methods enable property managers to create, edit and delete real estate vacancy postings on multiple sites from a single account, view metrics associated with the postings, and shift the administrative burdens associated with the unreliability of third-party systems to the system itself.
1. A method for aggregating and manipulating information comprising real estate vacancy postings from a plurality of websites, the method comprising:
receiving, by a first server, an input from a user of a client requesting manipulation of information related to at least one real estate vacancy posting associated with the user;
transmitting, by the first server, a request for manipulating information according to the input to a second server and a third server, the second and third servers each hosting a plurality of real estate vacancy postings;
receiving, by the first server, responses from the second and third servers including manipulated information and updated metrics related to the at least one real estate vacancy posting associated with the user; and
transmitting, by the first server, to the client a display including the manipulated information and the updated metrics related to the at least one real estate vacancy posting from the second and third servers.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the input from the user requests a search through the at least one real estate vacancy posting associated with the user.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting, by the first server, to the client a display including a fake acknowledgement that the information has been manipulated.
4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising, transmitting, by the first server, a request according to the input to the second server until the first server receives a response from the second server indicating that the information has been manipulated.
5. The method of claim 3 , further comprising buffering, by the first server, a request according to the input for transmitting to the second server.
6. The method of claim 3 , wherein the request for manipulating information is a request to create, edit, or delete a real estate vacancy posting.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the updated metrics are click-through rates for the at least one real estate vacancy posting.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the updated metrics include an updated click-through rate for a real estate vacancy posting hosted by the second server and an updated click-through rate for a real estate vacancy posting hosted by the third server.
9. A computer implemented system for aggregating and manipulating information comprising real estate vacancy postings from a plurality of websites, the system comprising:
a transceiver on a first server in communication with a client, a second server, and a third server, the second and third servers each hosting a plurality of real estate vacancy postings; and
a processor on the first server that
creates a request to send to the second and third servers according to an input from a user of the client requesting manipulation of information related to at least one real estate vacancy posting associated with the user; and
create a display for the client including the manipulated information and updated metrics related to the at least one real estate vacancy posting associated with the user received from the second and third servers.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the input from the user requests a search through the at least one real estate vacancy posting associated with the user.
11. The system of claim 9 , wherein the display includes a false acknowledgement that the information has been manipulated.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the transceiver transmits the request to the second server until the system receives a response from the second server indicating that the information has been manipulated.
13. The system of claim 12 , further comprising a buffer that buffers the request according to the input for transmitting to the second server.
14. The system of claim 9 , wherein the request for manipulating information is a request to create, edit, or delete a real estate vacancy posting.
15. The system of claim 9 , wherein the updated metrics are click-through rates for the at least one real estate vacancy posting.
16. The system of claim 9 , wherein the updated metrics include an updated click-through rate for a real estate vacancy posting hosted by the second server and an updated click-through rate for a real estate vacancy posting hosted by the third server.
