Make Money and Advertise at the same site

Here's a new concept I just joined where you can advertise you site and make money online at the same time. It's called You-Cubez and the idea is that that you can buy an advertising cube for a low as £1.00 or about $2.00 america. Then there are many ways you can increase the value of your Cube which moves it up the page and theoretically more clicks. You can also sell your block once it has increased in value Give it a look. It' looks like a fun way to make some extra money online.
