  The best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a connection diagram showing a configuration example of a system according to a first embodiment using the method of the present invention. In this figure, the present system includes a communication network 1, an intermediary information management server device 2, a service provider terminal device 3a, a service provider terminal device 3b, and a service provider terminal device 3c. A service provider terminal device 3d, a service provider terminal device 3e (when it is not specified which service provider terminal device is referred to as the service provider terminal device 3, the same applies hereinafter), and a user A terminal device 4a of A and a terminal device 4b of user B (when not identifying which user's terminal device is referred to as a user's terminal device 4, the same applies hereinafter).

  The mediator information management server device 2 includes a service information storage unit 21 that stores service provider service information, a service profile analysis management unit 22 that analyzes and updates and manages a service profile of the stored service information, and a user User information management means 23 for accumulating and managing user information including registration information and search information, information matching means 24 for matching service profiles and user information, and information areas specified in the user information for matching results A notification means 25 for notifying a matching service, a search keyword proposal for finding an advantageous service beyond the area of information specified in the user information, or a usage qualification for making a further advantageous service available. A server device including a suggestion means 26 for making an acquisition proposal. .

  As a result, the system notifies the service information provided by the service provider of matching between user information and the matching service information specified in the user information. Propose search keywords to find cooperative service information that is considered advantageous for the user beyond the area specified in the user information, and obtain usage qualifications to make it possible to use even more advantageous cooperative service information It has a function to make a proposal. This function will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the concept of each means of the service information accumulating means 21 to the suggesting means 26 with an example of restaurant search. First, the service information storage unit 21 will be described. The service information storage means 21 stores service information distributed by the service provider in time series. An example of service information stored in the service information storage means 21 is shown in (1). Here, the service information distributed by the five service providers A to A is stored in the order of service providers A, A, C, E, and D as shown in (1). A ~ Service provider D provides restaurant service information, and service provider O provides mileage service information. Next, the service profile analysis management means 22 will be described. The service profile analysis management means 22 analyzes and manages a service profile for each service type such as restaurant and mileage. An example of a service profile of the service profile analysis management means 22 is shown in (2). Here we analyze the service provider, fee, location, available card type for restaurants, score for going over 2 people, score for going to birthday, cooperation service with other companies And manage. Therefore, when the service content of the service provider is changed or when a new service provider appears, the service profile is updated each time. Although the service provider O provides mileage service information but does not provide restaurant service information, it is not shown in the example of the restaurant service profile in (2). Next, the user information management means 23 will be described. The user information management means 23 can store and manage registration information, search information, and attribute information. An example of user information stored in the user information management means 23 is shown in (3). Here, an example is shown in which user A subscribes to the card I and the service provider's mileage service, and this is registered in advance.

  In the above state, when the user A searches for a restaurant, the search keyword “restaurant” transmitted from the terminal device A4a of the user A is stored in the user information management means 23. The user information management unit 23 activates the information matching unit 24 when the search information is accumulated. Since the search keyword is a restaurant, the information matching means 24 refers to the service profile of the restaurant stored in the service profile analysis management means 22 and corresponds to the information held as user information according to this service profile. To create user-oriented information. An example of user-oriented information is shown in (4). Here, since the user A is subscribed to the card I and the service provider's mileage service, “Yes” indicating the use qualification is displayed in the column of the service card I and the service linked to other companies. “No” indicating that the user is not eligible for use is included in the column II, and “−” indicating that the user information is not specified in the other columns. The information matching means 24 performs matching between the restaurant service profile (2) and the user-oriented information (4). That is, it is possible to match the cooperation service information with the user information.

  The information matching unit 24 passes the matching result together with the user A ID to the notification unit 25 and the suggestion unit 26. The notification means 25 notifies the user A of the matching result in the area of the “present” column of the user-oriented information (4). An example is shown in (5). Here, the search result of the restaurant of the user A notifies that the service provider D is applicable and the card I can be used. In this embodiment, the “usable card I” and “collaboration service with other companies” fields of the user-oriented information (4) are “Yes”, but both are included in the service profile (2) of the restaurant. Since there is no service provider to satisfy, matching is performed with priority on the useable card. This is because it is more important for the user that the card possessed by the user can be used than the cooperation service with other companies. In addition, in the user-oriented information (4), “-” “two or more” and “birthday” may have these conditions reflected in the price. Removed from matching.

  Further, the proposing means 26 proposes to re-search for the “-” column of the user-oriented information (4) by entering the corresponding information here. An example is shown in (6). Here, for example, a search keyword that recommends re-searching based on the charge, location, number of users, and birthday is proposed. User A searches again with reference to the proposed keyword. Further, when the proposing means 26 knows that the same user has made a search a plurality of times, the proposing means 26 determines that the user is not satisfied at present and proposes a use qualification that enables the use of a more advantageous service. An example is shown in (6). Here, the service provider has a low fee, and it is advantageous if there are two or more people or going to the birthday, but it is advantageous, but since the card that can be used is Card II, it is more advantageous to join Card II Is proposing to be accepted.

  As described in the above example, the user proceeds with the re-search based on the keyword proposal from the information management server device 2 without registering all user information in the user information management means 23 of the mediator from the beginning. This indicates that more advantageous linked service information can be obtained. Even if you do not register your birthday, you can know that you have a score if you go to the birthday because the search keyword has a birthday.

  In addition, the above example is an example in which the user is notified or suggested about the linked service information as a result of a search by the user, but other usage forms may be used.

  First, the service provider changes service information or provides new service information. For example, a case where Company A enables the use of the card I will be described. The service profile analysis management unit 22 notifies the information matching unit 24 that the service content has changed. The information matching unit 24 creates user-oriented information for each user and notifies the user who can use the card I.

  Furthermore, a case where the user A searches for what kind of place the company O has a cooperation service will be described. The information of O company is included in the search information of the user information management means 23. The user information management means 23 notifies the information matching means 24 that there has been an inquiry from a specific service provider. The information matching means 24 matches the service profile of the mileage and the user-oriented information of the user A so that the information in the column of the cooperative service with other companies is proposed to the user A (claim 4 above).

  If user attribute information can be obtained from an ISP or the like, it is stored as user information in the user information management means 23 in the same manner as information registration (claim 5).
