1. A system for targeted information dissemination based on network interaction, the system comprising:
at least one processor, the at least one processor in network communication with (i) a network service computing device associated with a network service and (ii) a monitoring device for monitoring the network service computing device for a posted digital media ranking; and
at least one storage storing instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
requesting, via application programming interface (API) calls to the network service computing device, a ranking report of a plurality of digital media rankings, the ranking report including ranking data of one or more rankings of digital media data by one or more users and related digital media data, wherein the one or more rankings are captured by a periodic monitoring engine at an interval determined based on a network load of the network service, where the interval is decreased based on a frequency of posts of a particular user or the interval is increased based on a network load on the network service computing device;
receiving the ranking report from the network service;
based on the one or more users interacting with the network service, updating the ranking data and the related digital media data;
analyzing the updated ranking data and the related digital media data to identify at least one current ranking of the ranking data and the related digital media data;
retrieving related item data corresponding to the at least one current ranking; and
displaying the related digital media data and the related item data corresponding to the at least one current ranking to assist a user in obtaining a ranked item corresponding to the ranking data.
