Docstoc, the site that lets you upload and share documents, has opened a new service call DocCash, which allows you to make money off those documents.
Docstoc has partnered with Google as one of their partners on the Adsense API. Now when you upload documents to Docstoc, you share in the revenue whenever someone clicks on one of the Google Ads on your documents. Docstoc splits the revenue with each user 50/50.
If you already have an Adsense account you use on your website or blog, you can associate it to your Docstoc profile. If you don’t already have an Adsense account, Docstor will help you sign up for an account and connect it to your profile. Any documents you upload under your Docstoc profile will then be tied to your DocCash account, and when anyone clicks on the ads around your documents you make cash.
Docstoc is not the first Google revenue sharing service. Many Internet forums share their AdSense revenue with their users. Unless you’re uploading a ton of documents, you’re not going to make a ton of money with DocCash. However, it is good to see Docstoc trying to reward their members. After all, they’re the ones who supply all the content.
