It is not possible to rule on a specific website without a complete understanding of it. However, generally, it is permissible to profit from browsing websites if the subscription is free, the content browsed is permissible and contains no Shariah prohibitions, and the compensation is known. It is also permissible to receive compensation for answering questions or bringing subscribers to the website if it is free from Shariah prohibitions. However, it is not permissible to be compensated for "liking" pages, as this involves deception.
