Microsoft invests in Facebook valuating it at $15B
Facebook has agreed to sell a 1.6% stake in the company to Microsoft for $240 million, valuing the company at a whopping $15 billion.
Assuming that Facebook has 42 milion active members in October this would mean that a user on Facebook is worth $357 !
Let's assume (just assume! ;) ) that the same applies for Yuwie, that would mean Yuwie is worth $67,870,341,- at this moment and increasing it's value with $1,554,021,- every day.....
Is this really the value, or is this a true sign of another internet bubble?

Policy Change; paid pageviews
Starting later today, guest page views will not count as paid page views. In order for a paid page view to be counted, the user has to be logged in.
Why are we doing this? Cheaters are driving the RSR down. You have all seen the notices, and blog entries for services that guarantee tons of traffic to your profile overnight. All these traffic exchanges, automated programs, and auto-surfing scripts are inflating page views, and that makes the RSR lower for legitimate users. Since all this traffic is from random non-Yuwie members, the easiest way to stop this is to not count guest views. We know this will affect some legitimate traffic to the site, and we apologize for that.
Again, in order for any page view to be counted, the viewer has to be logged in. Thanks for your patience. If you have any questions, please contact us through the help area.
This is a major change in how Yuwie works; you can stop bothering about everyone outside Yuwie and just focus on the members themselves.
Im not sure what to think of this. I see where this is coming from, but on the other hand I'm afraid this will encourage the Spam and Self Promotion on the noticeboard and in my messages even more.
Instead of focusing on good content for search engines to atrackt more visitors, everyone now will try to get all the people on Yuwie to their profiles; spam spam spam!

How to get tons of personal pageviews
On my previous post in which I state I went over 11k personal pageviews (for this month) yesterday I received quite some questions on how I managed to achieve this.
Hence this post in which I will talk about how to get a lot of pageviews yourself, not relying on the activity of your referrals.
Blog
Most people will tel you that maintaining a good blog is the way to get pageviews. To my experience this isn't true. My blog postings give me very little views unless I promote them on the noticeboard. Since I don't want to spam the notice board every time I have a new posting, this isn't very helpfull at this moment. I want to stress that this is merely so in the current situation. If Yuwie will improve it's indexing and ranking in the search engines, blog postings will be the content that can atrackt many visitors and thus generating pageviews. But in the current situation blog postings won't do much.
Pictures
Pictures are the next type of content that can give you pageviews. I have uploaded a few, but didn't really try it out yet. My expectation is that it works quite the same as with the blog; at this moment it isn't doing much, but this can change when Yuwie is ranking better in the search engines.
Clubs
To be honest, I didn't use these really up till now. So I don't really know how they would work out in getting you pageviews.
How I do it
But when blogs and pictures don't work, how did I manage to achieve this many pageviews? Just by Requesting Friendship with A LOT of people! Since I started doing so I received thousands of pageviews.
There are a few ways how I do this, and one of them is just adding the people that are shown on the homepage. Maybe I will disclose some other methods in future postings, but all I can say is; Be Creative! :)

11K pageviews
Today my own pageviews (not my refs) went up passed the 11k mark for this month :)
How much pageviews do you all have for your own pages?
Yuwie really needs to improve!
One way of getting more people to Yuwie is of course by ranking in the search engines. This is a very important factor, since it can direct interested people to your blog entries and thus giving you more pageviews.
The thing is however, that Yuwie has been programmed very badly from a Search Engine Optimization point of view.
A few examples:
In order for Yuwie to get really successfull and generate a lot of pageviews, this really needs to improve!!
Please leave your opinion in the comments, and let's try to get the attention
of Y Guy for this matter.
Y Guy, if you're reading this; I would be glad to help you out improving Yuwie for the search engines....
The thing is however, that Yuwie has been programmed very badly from a Search Engine Optimization point of view.
A few examples:
- your profile link redirects to a url with your account number. Both get indexed however resulting in duplicate content. Yuwie should create a 301 redirect and exclude the other url from indexing.
- the urls to your blog entries are to complicated. Consider this example:
http://www.yuwie.com/blog/entry.asp?id=64364&eid=79656&t=How%20many%20friends%20have%20you%20got?
the bad thing is that it contains 3 variables and spaces. Yuwie should use ModRewrite to create a url like this:
http://www.yuwie.com/blog/64364/How_many_friends_have_you_got/
At this moment there are only 6140 blog entries indexed by Google. Considering the number of users on Yuwie who are all writing multiple blog entries this is really a small percentage of the total of blog entries. IE. At this moment Google hasn't indexed any of my blog entries! - there are no Metatags; the title tag for a blog entry is just yuwie.com and the keywords tag is empty. The description tag is not even present.
In order for Yuwie to get really successfull and generate a lot of pageviews, this really needs to improve!!
