Abstract

The present disclosure relates, in part, to an advertisement system that provides for the augmentation of social networking profiles with information derived from user activity associated with third-party content outside of a social networking system. The augmented profiles of users may be analyzed and compared to identify targeted advertisement opportunities for one or more users. The advertisement system can analyze the augmented profiles of one or more users to identify look-alike product advertisement opportunities, look-alike user advertisement opportunities, as well as various remarketing, reminders, and cross-device marketing opportunities.
