Abstract

A source system receives listing identification data for delivery of an enhanced listing to a plurality of provider systems. For each provider system of the plurality of provider systems the source system transmits to the provider system identification data. The source system receives corresponding identification data. When the corresponding identification data is valid identification data, the source system delivers the enhanced listing to the provider system with a provider-supplied external identifier as an indication to the provider system to update a listing with enhanced content. When the corresponding identification data is not valid identification data, the source system delivers the enhanced listing to the provider system without the provider-supplied external identifier as an indication to the provider system to create a listing using the enhanced content. The enhanced content may comprise one or more structured lists.
