    Abstract: A social networking system provides content items to a user via a feed that may include one or more sponsored content items. Multiple sponsored content items may be included in a set that is presented in the feed via a scrollable content unit that presents a sponsored content item from the set and presents additional sponsored content items from the set when user interaction is received. To place sponsored content items in the feed, the social networking system scores a set of sponsored content items based on prior user interactions with content presented via scrollable content units and a bid amount of a sponsored content item in the set. The set of sponsored content items is ranked among other sponsored content items based on its score. If the set of sponsored content items is selected for inclusion in the feed, the social networking system orders the sponsored content items in the set for presentation via the scrollable content unit.
