Yuwie

Yuwie.com is a social website that pays its users. It has all the features we've come to expect from a social website with the addition that users are paid a certain amount each time their profile is viewed. Payment can also be earned through referrals, with each referral's earnings adding to the referrers earnings. Do you guys think this is a good model for revenue sharing amongst websites that depend on user generated content?

If the site makes 10$ from m visits to a page, then giving away $1 seems reasonable to me. But they have to take care of those ad blockers out there. Otherwise they will lose $1 per m pages.
