Yuwie Social Network
Yuwie is a social network with a twist; Yuwie pays their users like myLot but between them are major differences. Both Yuwie and myLot are making money from advertising and they share the profit with their users, but the way a user earns money differs.
Yuwie users earn money from the page views they get from other Yuwie users and myLot user get paid by the number of discussion they start and by how others users rated their replies.
Yuwie is like all the other social networks, members can create personal profiles, add friends, add videos and pictures, create clubs (groups), and can create blogs on Yuwie’s blogging platform. In eleven moths Yuwie has become a “big” social network with more that 500,000 members and the privilege to get all links that go from MySpace to Yuwie blocked.
A user earns money from referrals and from impression they get from other members that view their profile, blog, comments, picture and shared layout. Also when a user views his own control panel is counted as 1 page view. The minimum payout is $5 and they send the money through PayPal or a check.
I have found something interesting if you search myLot scam and Yuwie scam you can find two websites that link to each other and they tell the story of a myLot user that got banned and when he moved to Yuwie he found the Holy Grail, I don’t know if this is a true story or just a way of promoting Yuwie, you can decide for yourself.

I have actually found that Yuwie is not so bad. It takes a good referral tree to really see any significant money. You do meet a lot of people, and there is incentive to visit peoples profiles (you actually get paid). The draw back here is it seems that people are just surfing to get page impressions instead of doing a lot of socializing. However, anytime I contact some of my friends they always respond. So people are socializing. I had people wanting to be my friend right away. On MySpace I had a profile there for several years and no one offered me any friend requests, save only the spam friend requests, which gets pretty tiring. I would recommend anyone to try Yuwie out, then refer your friends if you like it.
