摘要

A system and method are provided for facilitating large-scale distribution of electronically published promotions. Users are registered in connection with a social media account and input data regarding their preferred content categorical affinities describing the topics of their published content. Registered users may upload identification data to a server, authorize an administrator element to access the identification data, view or select multiple marketing campaigns to participate in and upload a photo and caption as a submission. A calculation is performed to determine the user's offer price for a campaign and a rank valuing their ability to reach a particular target audience. The administrator element may approve, deny or request edits made to the user's submission. Once approved, a user may electronically publish the submission on a social media network. The server confirms the publication and measures its performance by tracking the engagement data of the particular content item.
