| Research Abstract |
A keyword auction where the internet advertisements shown in the search result page are sold is theoretically analyzed. In this study, it is found that the advertising-slot supply strategy which is adopted in practice by the internet search engines is explained by the revenue maximizing principle. In particular, restricting the number of advertisements in a search result page and highlighting the top advertisements enhance the revenue of the search engines.
