Forum Revenue Sharing

[trigatch4]

I know on DP they have a revenue sharing feature (I don't have 50 posts yet because I always post here!) and I remember Jon saying he may implement this when the new area launches...

Just curious as to how much people here make on DP (or other forums) from the revenue sharing aspect alone. Just curious.

First i've heard of this --it's a pretty popular mod for vBulletin. Any background? I was thinking of adding it to my forum.

Well it's only a guess on my part, but a very good guess, because it's happened to many users over at DigitalPoint also. And I didn't click my own ads. So yeh.

I've heard this too. I think it is a good way to get smartpriced, because hardly anyone clicks ads over there so you get a very low ctr.

Doesn't seem like it's worth the effort.

Why not just put up my adsense ads? Seems fair to me.

We decided against it afterall.. too many what if's on potential abuse.
