Abstract

A method for compensating all parties involved in producing the income stream for a content distributor is presented where the content-hosting site, the content writer and the user doing the interaction with paid contents receive a fair share of the generated income stream.

Claims (16)

1. A method of web site development based on advertising revenue sharing, comprising the steps of:

displaying paid content from an advertiser through a webpage of the web site on a computer;

logging-in a registered user to allow the registered user to interact with the paid content on a computer;

totaling a number of interactions by the registered user with the paid content;

receiving payment from the advertiser for the number of interactions of the registered user with the paid content; and,

paying the registered user for the number of interactions of the registered user with the paid content,

wherein the interaction of the registered user comprises clicking on a link to a new link destination within the paid content, provided that a second and subsequent clicking on the link by the same registered user is not an interaction to be counted in the step of totaling a number of interactions unless it exceeds a waiting-time threshold.

2. The method according to claim 1 wherein the interaction of the registered user comprises clicking on a link to a new link destination within the paid content, provided that a second and subsequent clicking on the link by the same registered user is not an interaction to be counted in the step of totaling a number of interactions unless it exceeds a waiting-time threshold.

3. A method of web site development based on advertising revenue sharing, comprising the steps of:

displaying paid content from an advertiser through a webpage of the web site on a computer;

registering a content provider to prepare non-paid content for the webpage on a computer;

totaling a number of interactions by the user with the paid content;

receiving payment from the advertiser for the number of interactions of the user with the paid content; and,

paying the content provider for the number of interactions of the user with the paid content,

wherein the user is a registered user, and wherein the interaction of the registered user comprises clicking on a link to a new link destination within the paid content, provided that a second and subsequent clicking on the link by the same registered user is not an interaction to be counted in the step of totaling a number of interactions unless it exceeds a waiting-time threshold.

4. The method according to claim 3 wherein the user is a registered user.
