The bigger problem is taxes. A website getting paid directly by its viewers is selling something to each of those viewers, and has to worry about sales tax or VAT in every place those viewers reside.
A website getting paid by selling ad space to ad networks generally only has to worry about taxes in the country it is in.
The latter is orders of magnitude less of a pain than the former.
