YouData's New Advertising Model

You don't usually get paid to look at advertisements. You are bombarded with them while watching TV, reading the newspaper, and driving through cities, regardless of your demographic. You're never compensated for this assault to your eyes. YouData is a website with a different advertising model: assign ads to people according to their demographic, and pay people to look at them.

When you sign up for YouData, the first step is to create a "MeFile." This is essentially a profile where you supply information about yourself such as your habits, hobbies and education. It is also completely anonymous and only requires that you fill out your age and gender. In other words, you can pick which sections you want to fill out. No pressure.

Advertisers will not see your MeFile. They will provide YouData with the demographic, or qualities of people, that they're looking to target. You will then receive targeted ads in your "adget," the widget where your ads can be viewed. There are two types of ads: impressions, and "click through"s. An impression is an ad you view while a "click through" advertisement is an ad where you have to view the website. Each impression ad is typically worth .05, and click through ads are worth around 10-15 cents.

This may not sound like much money. However, it will add up, and it takes only seconds. This is a sweet deal compared to some websites such as ClixSense, where you only earn 1 cent for each 30-second click through.

One negative aspect of YouData is that it's still young. Ads can sometimes be hard to come by. Thankfully, viewing advertisements isn't the only option to make money. There is a new referral program where you can make up to $1.00 per referral. You make 1 cent for the first 100 ads they view and are paid for.

You will be paid via PayPal on Fridays. There is no minimum payout and I have been paid several times.

You may sign up here. It costs nothing.
