Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil de gestion de signets en ligne destiné à promouvoir l'offre de signets. Ainsi, un serveur (12) hébergeant des informations publicitaires reçoit d'un terminal (14) fournisseur un signet, qu'il enregistre. Le serveur (12) transmet ensuite le signet enregistré et les informations publicitaires associées audit signet à un terminal utilisateur, en cas d'accès par le terminal côté utilisateur. Les frais publicitaires incombant au publicitaire pour les informations publicitaires transmises sont totalisés, et le fournisseur du signet transmis gagne des points sur la base desdits frais publicitaires. Le signet et les informations publicitaires sont ensuite reçus par le terminal côté utilisateur (16), qui en informe l'utilisateur. Puisque le fournisseur fournit un signet dans le but d'accumuler des points, l'offre de signets faite à un utilisateur est encouragée et l'opérateur du serveur (12) peut encaisser les revenus relatifs aux frais publicitaires.
