The whole point of software as a service is that your users pay you to be on your platform. Ads don't enter into it. You provide a full-featured set of tools for blogging, and they pay you for the convenience of using it. You improve that service over time, and they continue to pay you for it.

One of the features you may provide is a one-click way to add ads to *their* blog, and choose which ads are appropriate for *their* audience. If you write that tool, and make it easy to use (and profitable for *your* users), then they will continue to pay you for the privilege of using your platform. Ideally, you should not be getting any bit of their ad revenue (except some transaction fee, if you manage the money for them). Neither should you be putting your ads (which make sense for you) into their blog (which you have never even seen, so how could you find appropriate ads?).

If you do this right, then your users will make more money in ads (or at least break even) than they pay you for the service (or at least break even). If you have priced your service correctly, then your customers will not feel as though they are being ripped off, and will think that the price they pay for the convenience is worthwhile.
