Benefits

To Web Site Owners implementing BAM!
1. All the benefits of an affiliate program.
a. More traffic.
b. More sites linking to you.
2. BAM! costs nothing to implement.
3. BAM! does not require time consuming tracking or accounting.
4. No recurring fees from third parties.
5. Click through model means that you only pay for results.
6. Ratiod payment means you pay proportionately to the quality of the referred user.
7. The javascript program provided is cheat resistant.
8. Good will. You are sharing your banners.
To Web Site Owners linking to BAM! sites
1. More revenue. (via the additional banners)
2. Value to your users. They will come back to your site again if you provided them with value links. (and since you will earn more with better quality links, why shouldn't you do so?)
To Advertisers
1. More ad inventory.
2. Better targetting. You get more banners at niche sites when they link out to BAM! sites (that are more general in nature). The users are still the same users that were interested in the topic covered at the niche site.
Overall benefits to the web
1. Better categorization. More effort is now put into creating quality links. (dependent only on greed. a very reliable motivation factor.)
2. Better search. 2nd generation search engines using the links to rate quality of sites can use the new links to better improve their search.
3. Making it attractive to link out means that we can get back to the basics of the web. It means that we can get back to the multi-site hyperlink states of the web. BAM! fights the tendency for websites to now keep all links inbound. (like techweb.com)
4. More individual jobs. You can become an agregator looking for the best sites and articles. Or you can become a content-producer creating content. (For the second one, it's easier to get noticed because you have the multitude of agregators looking to send traffic to you). Probably more types I haven't thought off.
