Revenue Sharing - December 28th, 2006

What we have done is setup a system so the ad revenue can be shared between all active members of this forum.

This forum displays one advertisement in the location and one after the last post when viewing a thread. We use Google AdSense to automatically serve relevant ads for the content on the page. Google pays AdSense publishers on a per click basis.

If a user has an AdSense account, they have the ability to credit their account with the ads served on threads they start or participate in.

If you have any questions about it, please post and ask here.

What are the rules?

* You must have an AdSense account through Google.

* You must have at least 10 total posts within the forum to participate (once you reach that level, the ads displayed from that point forward are retroactively applied to all the threads you started or participated in).

* For threads you start, your AdSense client ID will be used 50% of the time when the thread is viewed as a thread.

* Your AdSense client ID will be used 50% of the time when the thread is viewed by post (and you made the post).

Is this allowed by Google?
I have not found anything in the rules nor have any of the hundreds of other sites doing such a thing but if you have any real proof otherwise I would love to know.

How do I jump on the bandwagon?
You will need to go to the Edit Options area of your user control panel. Within there, you will find an option to enter your AdSense client ID (this starts with pub- and is within the HTML Google generates for you in your account).

Once you have a Google AdSense client ID on your account and you have made more than 10 posts to the forum, any thread you participate in has a chance to show ads that credit your AdSense account.

I'm worried about you having my AdSense Client ID.
The only info we need for it is info that is publicly available if you look at the source of any page that has your AdSense ads.

If you are still worried about it then the best thing to do is not participate.

How long do you plan to use this rev share model?
While I can't guarantee it will run forever, there are no plans to stop it at any point.

But we do retain the right to halt the program or make adjustments to it as necessary if it's not working out in it's current form for whatever reason.

I look at the HTML source on posts I've made and I never see my AdSense Client ID.

The system will never display your own AdSense Client ID to you (as long as you are logged in).

This is to prevent people from unknowingly violating the Adsense terms and conditions (specifically the part about clicking your own ads). so you always end up viewing someone else's adsense (i.e. the Board owners or another posters.

I think this is a generous idea for the community of this forum, but KP put all this work into it? I consider myself pretty active? But I'm not setting up an account to make money off of doing something like this. Unless I read it wrong, I say KP gets everything. It'll help him pay for all these things he takes care. KP doesn't have to do this, right? He just does this for us? Unless I am completely lost. Correct me if I am, because I don't want to sound that stupid.

if more people have a stake in the community being active more people will participate so the more people that add their adsense the better it is for the community.

I urge everyone to get in on this as now we are using a much more unified ads system and pretty much every ad you see on the boards is eligible for ad revenue sharing rather than the 2 or 3 from before. also the system is upgraded to comply with asdense terms and conditions in a better way, i.e. you will never see your own ads so you dont accidentally click on them and get banned by Google. just goto usercp and add your pub-xxxxx code to your profile.
