Abstract
According to at least one aspect, a method for providing content items augmented with format elements includes receiving a request for a content item and generating a plurality of augmented content items based on a plurality of original content items and a plurality of format elements. In a first stage a first content item associated with a first original content item is selected based on normalized auction scores of the content items. In a second stage, a set of content items associated with the first original content item is identified. Selection scores for the content items in the identified set are computed based on respective normalization parameters. A second content item is selected from the identified set based on the selection scores and a bid amount. The second content item is then provided for display to a user.
