gets advertisers to agree to let website self-host ads, with access to click rates, etc
spins up new server
setups ad service
spend couple days fidgeting with open source ad software
ads deploy to subdomain ads.domain.com
people start blocking ads.domain.com, assuming ads.<>.com wasn't already in your blocklist
redeploys ads into domain.com/DEFINITELY_NOT_ADS
people start blocking that URL
its basically a cat and mouse game. most people don't have time for that.
if you have a small client base though you can probably get away with selling a promo on a per month basis.
