Not only can you use Facebook applications to market your own site or service you can also generate revenue from your application.

You can place code in your application that allows others to purchase clicks. You then make a portion of the price an advertiser paid.

Some work on a Cost Per Click model (CPC) for the click through in your application. For example, if an Advertiser pays 10 cents per click and you receive a click at 50% you would receive 5 cents. Others work on a Cost Per Thousand (CPM) model in which you receive a set price for every 1,000 advertisements shown.

These three advertising networks focus exclusively on Facebook and work like any other ad network, just copy and paste the code in your application.
