I have a domain and an idea, I pay you $400 and you work on this project and launch it in a month. Revenue is advertising. I own the site/code, you get the revenue from ads up to $400, anything excess is mine to keep. How's that?

No offense but that's a terrible deal. He does all the work (in a month at that), owns nothing and gets paid after you get $400 in advertising revenue, which could take months depending on the product.

"I pay you $400" suggests that he gets paid immediately, regardless, then gets $400 in ad revenue ( if any ), the the poster is left with the site and any further ad revenue.

Which sounds a lot better than your interpretation.
