Split Adsense Commissions?

[Tim45]

I have started an article website and I want to spit the adsense commissions with authors that submit articles. Is there a software/plug-in that I can integrate into my website that will do it automatically? I'd like to have it so that an author can login to his/her account and add their pub-ID and it be automatically integrated into each article they submit.

Will google allow that?

Thanks

Several other sites allow you to do that and I've never heard anything about Google caring (although not done it myself so YMMV).

What are you using to run your article directory? Plugins for the different scripts vary massively so it'd help to know which one you're using.

Cheers,

Andy

It's certainly possible and allowed. I am a moderator at a job listings site and I split the adsense with them.

I don't know how they do it though.

I am using the article dashboard script but I am currently looking for a new script to use. If anyone has suggestions, please post them here.

There are some wordpress plugins for that but if you don't plan to use WP, you may have to customize your article directory script for that function. I guess you could hire a programmer.

Doesnt Digital Point forum use revenue sharing. I guess any money helps so why not join. I am just wondering about if google might ban you for that?

I think you mean the Adsense API - google offers it.

OK thanks, It looks like I have to get a lot more traffic before I can split Adsense commissions with my members. Are there other affiliate programs, other than Adsense, that will allow me to split commissions with my members?

Tim,

just discovered this thread.

... As you found, Google would like to see a minimum of 100.000 page views per day on the total of all user generated content pages.

Then, the Adsense earnings would be spread by the percentage set by the platform operator, in this case: you.

Meanwhile one could use a script, that replaces the Adsense publisher code dynamically. One impression for the author, one for the operator (you).

Another model could be to have Adsense Box A with the authors id, the Adsense Box B with (your) the operators id.

The issue obviously is, one never knows when and where the click happens and so the sharing will not be "fair" or mathematically correct on low traffic sites.

On sites with volume, it should level itself somehow.


Hope this help.
