Collecting and providing customized user generated contentacross networks based on domain

Abstract

An example method comprises registering an account of a first user, receiving first and second requests to store user generated content and first and second user generated content by the first user, the first and second user generated content being associated with at least the first user, the first request including an uploading user identifier, one or more categorical identifiers, and a first domain identifier, associating the first user generated content with an account of the first user and the first domain identifier, associating the second user generated content with the second domain identifier, receiving, from a searching user at a domain, a search request including a search criteria and a third domain identifier, if the third domain identifier is associated with the first domain identifier, determining the first user generated content to provide to the searching user based on the search criteria, and providing the first user generated content.

1 . A method comprising:
 registering, by a content delivery system, accounts for a plurality of users;   authenticating, by the content delivery system, one or more of the plurality of users;   receiving a first request to store user generated content and first user generated content by a first user of the plurality of users, the first user generated content being associated with at least the first user, the first request to store user generated content including an uploading user identifier, one or more first categorical identifiers associated with the first user generated content, and a first domain identifier;   associating the first user generated content with an account of the first user, the uploading user identifier, the one or more first categorical identifiers, and the first domain identifier;   storing, by the content delivery system, the first user generated content and associations;   receiving a second request to store user generated content and second user generated content by the first user, the second user generated content being associated with at least one first user, the second request to store user generated content including an uploading user identifier, one or more second categorical identifiers associated with the second user generated content, and a second domain identifier;   associating the second user generated content with the account of the first user, the uploading user identifier, the one or more second categorical identifiers, and the second domain identifier;   storing, by the content delivery system, the second user generated content and associations;   receiving, from a searching user at a web site associated with a domain, a search request, the search request including a search criteria including at least a third domain identifier, the third domain identifier being associated with the domain;   if the third domain identifier is associated with the first domain identifier, determining all or a portion of the first user generated content to provide to the searching user based on the search criteria, and providing all or the portion of the first user generated content to the searching user; and   if the third domain identifier is associated with the second domain identifier, determining all or a portion of the second user generated content to provide to the searching user based on the search criteria, and providing all or the portion of the first user generated content to the searching user.
