Online advertising campaigns are operated responsive to keyword trends. The keywords used by a group of browsers is analyzed periodically over time. A list of the most frequently used keywords is separated into those that have previously appeared on the list, referred to herein as the stable keywords, and those that are newly emerging, referred to herein as the trending keywords. The advertiser selects at least one advertising creative that the advertiser associates with the stable keywords, referred to herein as the stable creative, and at least one advertising creative that the advertiser associates with the trending keywords, referred to herein as the trendy creative. The advertising system then operates the online advertising campaign to deliver the respective stable and trendy creatives in proportion to the frequency of use of the trending versus the stable keywords.
