How can A Foundation Make Money? Follow the Mozilla Way…

Mozilla makes money. They make millions of dollars. Not bad for a free software foundation, eh?

How does it work? Well they have a partnership with Google.

Google pays Mozilla an amount for each user that performs a Google search from Firefox. Exactly how much Google pays, we don't know for sure but I'd wager that it's somewhere in the range of 1 cent to 5 cents per click.

Mozilla then made Google as the default search engine on all Mozilla FireFox downloads. It is the default web page once you open up the browser. Since searching for information is one of the most common activities on the Internet, almost all FireFox would simply use the default search interface. More income for Mozilla there.

How would you apply something similar? Let's say you have a computer/internet cafe. Why not make create a default landing page for all your browsers on all your computers? First, sign up for Google Adsense, then create a landing page with Google Ads and Google Search on the default landing pages you've created.

I'm pretty sure, if you have lots of PC users, you'll start getting some passive income.
