Earn 100% adsense revenue on weebly sites

Weebly has been able to establish itself as a reliable webhosting business. Already as a free user, we are allowed to create 2 sites (10 sites as from 7 January 2013) with unlimited bandwidth, unlimited number of pages and unlimited disk storage. We are also allowed to display adsense ads by using the adsense widgets provided when building our site. This allows us to earn 50% of the adsense ads revenue. The remaining 50% goes to weebly. This is a fair deal for all that we get for free. It is to be considered free as we pay nothing. The ads are optional. We only share what is earned.

We are also to allowed to upgrade to pro user to benefit from additional features. These include the use of favicons, uploading files of bigger size and password protect pages, having 10 sites all with pro features among others. Pricing for pro users have been $3.99 per month for a one year subscription and $2.99 per month for a two years subscription. However, as from 7 January 2013, pricing structure have changed.
Henceforth, there are 2 upgrade options, but applies per site rather than per account as was before 7 January:

1. Starter at approximate cost of $4 per month for the site being upgraded. Other sites in the account will retain the free features unless upgraded.
2. Pro at approximate cost of $8 per month for the site being upgraded. Other sites in the account will retain the free features unless upgraded.
Let’s come back to our issue for this article which is 100% adsense share on weebly sites.

As a paid user (starter or pro), we are allowed to insert adsense ad codes (generated from our adsense account) and insert them on our sites by using the custom HTML element rather than using the weebly adsense widgets. This is allowed by weebly. In this case, we keep all the adsense revenue earned on our website.

  1. Ah thanks so much for this. I was wondering if I used custom html instead of the inbuilt weebly apps, if I'd get 100%. I don't want weebly skimming my profits!

  2. Hello, thank you for visiting and for your appreciation. But as I mentioned above, to be able to use html, one need to be a paid weebly user rather than a free user as confirmed from their support team.

  4. Few months ago I asked the weebly team the same. They replied that it would not be allowed to do so for free accounts. Also, I remember having seen in a discussion forum (can't remember which one) that some people did try but the ads would either nt be displayed or the code would be changed in order for the revenue to be split.
