Sentiment-Oriented Contextual Advertising

Web advertising (Online advertising) is a form of promotion that uses the World Wide Web for the expressed purpose of delivering marketing messages to attract customers. This paper addresses the mechanism of Content-Oriented advertising (Contextual advertising), which refers to the assignment of relevant ads within the content of a generic web page, e.g. blogs. As blogs become a platform for expressing personal opinion, they naturally contain various kinds of expressions, including both facts and comments of both a positive and negative nature. In this paper, we propose the utilization of sentiment detection to improve Web-based contextual advertising. The proposed

SOCA

(Sentiment-Oriented Contextual Advertising) framework aims to combine contextual advertising matching with sentiment analysis to select ads that are related to the positive (and neutral) aspects of a blog and rank them according to their relevance. We experimentally validate our approach using a set of data that includes both real ads and actual blog pages. The results clearly indicate that our proposed method can effectively identify those ads that are positively correlated with the given blog pages.
