Hi .. I have a wesite a little bit like squidoo and hubpages .. Do you think if I implement revenue sharing solution (adsense), the website will attract more writers and become more popular ? What are the pros and cons ? Any idea? As a webmaster, do you search for revenue sharing websites to contribute and share your articles, or you don't care about that ? Thanks.
Yes of course, if those sites didn't offer revenue sharing with the authors, they would be nearly empty. Personally I made several adsense revenue sharing sites but I am not registered in any other ones. I prefer to spend my time on my own sites, it's normal. Participating in adSense revenue sharing sites is only good when you don't yet have the traffic needed to make good earnings with adsense.
Thanks for answering .. Rep+ Can you give me some tips on how to market a revenue sharing website ? it looks like you have experience dealing with such websites ..
First of all I would say that a referral program is mandatory, so if you plan to implement revenue sharing, think about the referral program too! Because there are people active in other revenue sharing site and they will happily create articles on those sites about YOUR site, and some of them have a big following amongst regular users on forums of those sites, so it will be a snowball effect, and you'll soon see positive articles about your site popping up all around the web like by magic. If you don't have a referral program, strangely no one will write any article about your site.
