    • a bidding system: where clients have the flexibility to determine the rates for our traffic services. Opting for a higher rate (or lower rate) can impact the ranking of the Content Previews;
    • quality of Content Previews: higher quality makes it more likely to receive more clicks from Users, thus making the Content Preview more popular and rank higher.
  • 7.3. Other factors that affect the ranking relatively less include among others:
    • rating: Users can influence the ranking by rating the content, such as giving certain content a negative rating or by providing feedback.
    • the IP address of the User: for example, the list of categories is optimized depending on the IP address from which User requests access to the Website. This IP address can belong to a block that is related to the country the User resides in, or to a block that is used by a VPN service that facilitates a more anonymous experience for the User;
    • the browser language: for example, the list of categories is optimized based on the language the User has set in their browser.
    • orientation setting: if the User can set the orientation option to certain presets such as gay, transgender, and/or straight, this influences for example the list of categories.
  • 7.4. It is the combination of the above and other factors that determines the ranking. Therefore, the ranking may differ per User, whereas PB Web Media makes no distinction in this regard. In addition, all Content Previews are accessible to all Users via the search feature on the Website.
