There is no objection to taking financial compensation for publishing advertisements, provided that what is displayed is controlled to avoid promoting something objectionable or forbidden. As for personal benefit from the profits, it is subject to the ownership of the website, so there is no objection for the website owner to benefit from them, even if the website is Islamic.
