One of the best ways to attract new users to your network is to offer them a share of the advertising revenue from their blogs.

This plugin makes it extremely simple to split advertising revenue in a fair way, based on the number of impressions on their blog.

It keeps track of all of the numbers for you and splits the revenue based on your selections. This is also a fantastic way to monetize an existing network.

Add this as a new feature and spark up your users to start generating more income for you and for themselves.
