Abstract

Techniques for varying content item density are provided. A first minimum gap value is stored that dictates how close two content items of a first type may appear in a content item feed that contains content items of multiple types that includes the first type and a second type. The first minimum gap value is used to place content items in a first set of content item feeds. For each content item feed of the first set of content item feeds, performance data that indicates how well content items of the first type perform in the content item feed is generated. Based on the performance data and the first minimum gap value, a second minimum gap value that is different than the first minimum gap value is generated. The second minimum gap value is used to place content items in a second plurality of content item feeds.
