Claim 3:
4. A computer-implemented method for integration among content publication, advertisement services and rewards collection, the method comprising:
receiving, by a server, first generated contents from one or more user devices associated with a user over a communication network, wherein the first generated contents may comprise standardized data;
restricting, by the server, the user from uploading more than a first predetermined number of contents to the server;
publishing, by the server, the first generated contents so that it is accessible as published first generated contents to user devices via the communication network, wherein each of the published first generated contents counts towards the first predetermined number;
modifying, by the server, a page where the at least one of the first generated contents is published to include a first user-controlled slot where additional content may be displayed;
determining, by the server, that a first predetermined condition of at least one of the published first generated contents has reached a first predetermined threshold;
responsive to the determination that the first predetermined condition of the at least one of the published first generated contents has reached the first predetermined threshold:
(i) allowing, by the server, the user to upload a second predetermined number of second generated contents to the server for publishing;
(ii) predetermining, by the server, a limited time period for the user to set a price for the first user-controlled slot, and displaying, by the server, a temporary link on an interface accessible to the user, wherein the temporary link is configured to enable the user to set the price for the first user-controlled slot upon selection by the user, and wherein the temporary link is not selectable after the limited time period has passed;
(iii) providing, by the server, an option to automatically set a price for the first user-controlled slot based on conditions and criteria;
(iv) providing, by the server, an option to allow the user to set a price for the first user-controlled slot without any deadlines or time constraint;
(v) providing, by the server, an option to allow the user to not set a price for the first user-controlled slot and quitclaim the first user-controlled slot to another user;
(vi) providing, by the server, an option to allow the user to give away the first user-controlled slot to a second user; and
(vii) providing, by the server, an option to allow the second user to sell the first user-controlled slot to a third user;

receiving, by the server, second generated contents from the one or more user devices associated with the user over the communication network;
restricting, by the server, the user form uploading more than the second predetermined number of second generated contents to the server;
publishing, by the server, the second generated contents so that it is accessible to user devices via the communication network, wherein each of the published second generated content counts towards the second predetermined number;
modifying, by the server, the page where at least one of the first generated contents is published to include a second user-controlled slot where additional content may be displayed;
determining, by the server, that a first predetermined condition of the published second generated contents has reached a second predetermined threshold; and
responsive to the determination that the first predetermined condition of the published second generated contents has reached the second predetermined threshold:
(i) allowing, by the server, the user to upload a third predetermined number of third generated contents to the server for publishing, and
(ii) enabling, by the server, user management of at least one criterion for using the second user-controlled slot.
