I got an email today from one of my subscribers today who suggested I take a look at Yuwie so I did. It’s a web 2.0 site in the sense that it relies on contributions from thousands of internet users to build up a social network. The difference between Yuwie and, say, MySpace etc. is that it shares its advertising revenue with its members on the basis of the more you use it, the more you make.

There’s a ton of things like that out there but I took a look at the Alexa ranking for Yuwie (Alexa gives you one opinion about the popularity of a site) and it seems to be very fast moving although it is very early days.

One of the more powerful aspects of Yuwie is that you make money when people you recommend to Yuwie sign up too - like a network marketing arrangement but crucially without the need to pay anything to join.

So where’s Yuwie going? I don’t know yet but we’ll probably know in a few weeks time. Worth a look at at this stage IMHO.
