Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for controlling an online advertising campaign. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method for controlling an online advertising campaign includes receiving a feedback signal reflecting delivery of the online advertising campaign, and comparing the feedback signal to a delivery reference to generate a campaign level control signal. The method further includes receiving a maximum impression bid price for an inventory unit of the online advertising campaign, the maximum bid price for the at least one inventory unit being set by a user, and calculating, using at least one processor, at least a final bid price based on the maximum bid price, on the campaign level control signal, and on an optimization objective for the online advertising campaign, the optimization objective being set by the user. The method also includes submitting, to an electronic market and based on the calculated final bid price, a bid on an impression from the inventory unit.
