SaphuA,

My advantage is advertising sales. I sell the ads in my games for $0.80/1000 ads. Out of that, I'm offering up $0.30/1000 games played to affiliates who want to put my games on their site. Another $0.05/1000 games goes into a lottery pot that is randomly awarded to one affiliate per month. I then pay $0.08/1000 ads sold to my marketing contact who tries to promote my games and ad sales.

Finally, the remaining $0.37/1000 goes into hosting costs and my profits.

This isn't my full time job, and I'm just trying to bring in a few hundred $ extra a month, so I'm not trying to gouge my advertisers, and I'm trying to be as generous as possible to affiliates in an attempt to make this work out for everyone.

As far as the advertisers go, my initial numbers show my CTR to be much higher than standard banner ads, so my existing advertisers are happy with the rates. I just need to sign up more affiliates to get a larger distribution of players.

I hope that clears things up for you. As I add more games, this will become more of a sucess for everyone involved.

Thanks,
