Like the new site design?
Not only has this site been completely revamped with a new look, but things are a-changing around here for the better. I decided to try out YouData. I heard about it from Jessica Smith at BlogWorld, and I gave it a test run.
Why should you care?
With YouData, you have the choice to see ads, or not – the ball it totally in your court! If you choose to create a “MeFile” you can do that, and make a little change (read: money) too, but not in a scammy pyramid scheme way. I’m not a big fan of over-advertised sites with a bunch of gunky ads that no one cares about (i.e. “splogs“) . With YouData, if you want to & sign up for a MeFile, try it out! If not, don’t. It’s that simple.
A better explanation than I could ever ever write…
Gwen Bell at Kirtsy wrote about YouData. Here’s my fave part that explains how YouData works:
“Here’s the basic gist:
1. You are matched with ads based on your interests through something they call a MeFile. You tell them what you’re interested in, they match you with ads. Sorta like eHarmony. If you were going to date an ad.
2. You control when and where you see the ads. On your desktop, at your favorite sites, on your own blog. Wherevs.
3. If you decide to look at the ads, a wee bit of cash flies straight into your PayPal account. This part is totally addictive — even though it’s just small change (21¢ here, 54¢ there), there’s something so gratifying about hearing the little cha-ching sound it makes after you look at an ad. Like, you’re getting paid for your attention. It’s pretty cool.
There’s more detail in this cute little video they’ve created to explain it all. Go check it out.”

Hi Brandie! Thanks for the mention on your site! We are working very hard to improve the YouData offering every day. While we secure more advertisers and MeFile owners we are also looking toward site enhancements and major features. I can’t wait to share with everyone!
