Yuwie itself is monetized by adsense and other advertising and passes on a small % of that revenue to the registered users. The revenue spilt is based on activity by the registered user and activity by the registered users referral down to 10 levels, which means, for those who haven't been involved in network commission, your referrals, referrals, referral, etc, to 10 levels. So it is possible to gain a healthy revenue income from friends and referrals and their activity.
There are checks and balances in place, to ensure automation and cheating is quickly picked up on and advertising your own business is a no no in almost all areas of the site, but there is a neat little video explaining the principals and an easy accessible faq section, not to mention Terms of Service.
As a Social Networking site, it works well. Offering, video, audio, applications, blogs, comments, notices, messages, photo albums. Customisation of layout is welcome and encouraged.
Profanity is stamped on vigorously, a little to heavy I would say, particularly when the word Cockatoo, is censored to C**katoo, but a great support team exists and within 2 hours of an email, the word had been reverted, as it should have appeared.
Stable and generally responsive, the site is occasionally sluggish, though that is not all that surprising as Yuwie is still in Beta, though that is easy to forget, with the user base numbers as follows:
| Total Members: | 88,605 |
| New This Month: | 48,605 |
| New Today: | 1,380 |
(snap shot 19:37 BST 23/09/07)
it is growing very fast.
If you enjoy Social Networking sites, a la myspace, facebook, beebo, well worth checking it out yourself.
