More Information
Summary:Methods and systems are disclosed which allow shifting inventory to fulfill guaranteed delivery advertisement contracts. Inventory may be allocated from a supply of unallocated inventory to one or more advertisers in accordance with guaranteed delivery agreements. Inventory may be reserved for the one or more advertisers from the remaining supply of unallocated inventory. Inventory may then be allocated to an additional advertiser by using unallocated inventory or shifted inventory, or a combination of unallocated inventory and shifted inventory. The shifted inventory is shifted out of the allocation for the first advertiser and the shifted inventory is replaced by the reserve inventory for the respective advertiser.
