Admin Forum:Wiki for profit?

Hello all! I'm exploring the idea of creating a Wiki for profit and was hoping someone would be able to help me with this question. Would greatly appreciate any assistance as i'm unfamiliar with how blogging/wiki'ing for profit work. I’m thinking of creating a wiki-site that generates income from getting advertisement/hits on it. Is the something that’s do-able on/with Wikia.com? Are there any examples of a site like the one I’m talking about that was created in Wikia.com you could point me to? Thanks so much in advanced!
