Would you allow guest writers to have google adsense on your site

[ClaireH-184886]

Hi, i am thinking of building a website where 30% of the writers would be guest bloggers and i was thinking about letting guest bloggers have adsense on the site.

What i was thinking of doing was, allowing the guest blogger to have one google adsense advert on the page of the article but not sure what people think.

The new magazine would be on one topic but i am worried incase the person kept on pressing the google adsense advert to get money in.

The google adsense code would be there code, does anyone know if there is a way from hiding their code so they do not know which one is their google adsense advert, and do people think this is a good idea.

This would only be offered to people who write good quality interest content.

will be interested to hear your thoughts

Sure - not sure how they do it but an easy way would be to generate a random number from 1-100 and then show the code based on what appeared. So if you want the author code to appear 80% of the time, you would do:

$num = random(1-100)

if $num <= 80, show their ad code, else, show yours.

You can scramble the adsense code via a javascript obfuscator.

hi can you explain more about this

You can make it so that their code shows up a certain % of page loads and yours for the remaining.

the reason about hiding the code is to stop people from pressing the ads to gain revenue

There are a number of sites who do things similar to this - search for "adsense revenue sharing" Why would you want to hide the code?

Your best bet is to replace all adsense blocks with their ID on their posts. You can make it so that their code shows up a certain % of page loads and yours for the remaining.

In general, unless the blog is gets a lot of traffic and the writer has many posts, they probably wont make much.
