Have You Heard about YouData Yet?

We heard about YouData a little over a month ago from the wonderful gals over at kirtsy and not only did we fall in love with it’s mission, we’re benefiting from it and so can you.

Most people who run a website are interesting in monetizing it; people love to get paid for what they love to do and blogging, a passion of hundreds of billions of people around the world, is one of the biggest topics of conversation on the internet today. People get paid to keep their website up and running through ads, sponsorships and even tip jars, but what YouData noticed is that while your attention is being bought all the time, it isn’t being bought from you.

YouData matches people, based on their MeFile profile, with ads for websites that they are genuinely interested in. If you’re sick of being shown ads for websites you have no interest in, like if you can’t cook and suddenly see a website littered with foodie ads, chances are you don’t care and you’re not going to click to go to the website or if you’re in a committed relationship or married and you see a great deal of ads for Match.com (I use that site as an example because their ads are everywhere and just as annoying on every site I see their ads appear on) or some other website in that realm, you’re probably going to keep right on going about your business without a second thought.

What I like about YouData is it is extremely versatile. You get matched up with ads that chances are, you’re going to like, and you can view these ads on either the YouData website, by downloading the application to your desktop so you can view your ads without even having to open your browser, or on your favorite sites, like Woman Tribune.

That’s right, here. If you’ve noticed in our sidebar, we have the YouData application so anyone who is signed up on YouData can log in right from our website and see their ads. You can also click on your ads to get your cash and never leave our website; pretty cool, right? And if you’re not signed up for YouData, you can also sign up via the application in the sidebar.

If you have a website that you would like to monetize, you can also benefit from people checking their ads on your website. To get a YouData application code for your website, all you have to do is go here or email monetize@youdata.com with the following information:

• Blog name (as you would like it to appear in the adget)
• Quick description (for anyone who would like more info on your blog)
• Blog URL (link to your blog)
• PalPal account email (where should we send your money?)

And that’s all there is to it! So I hope everyone out there takes advantage of this great ad network who, instead of paying Google or some other ad network who, let’s face it, have enough money, they want advertisers to buy your attention straight from the source. Have fun!
