You can help increase the RSR !!   
Did you think you have no influence on Yuwie's RSR (Revenue Sharing Rate) ? that's WRONG !
Use your common sense :

* Who pays Yuwie ?
-Advertisers
* How much can they afford to pay Yuwie ?
-Depend how much people actually buy (conversion rate)
* Why would people click on an ad and eventually buy something ?
-Because they are interested in the ad (see where i'm going ?)
* Why would people be interested in the ad ?
-Because it's targeted to the content of the page (google power)
* How can my page display interesting ads
-Just by being interesting ! Ads will automatically match the content of the page :

page full of pics = no keywords = uninteresting ads = less conversion for advertisers = less money for Yuwie = less money for you

page full of content = more keywords = matching ads

People reading content = people interested in this content = people interested in the matching ads = more conversion for advertisers = more money for Yuwie = Yummy Yuwie !

So the bottom line is follow theses guidelines and you will increase Yuwie's RSR :
  1. Write interesting content about something else than getting pageviews ! People come back to your page mostly because they are interested in what you have to say.
  2. Quit sending pic comments, they don't contains keywords and they slow down Yuwie (see this post)
  3. Eventually, if you want to go extreme, target your content to keywords that pays well. For example, write an article about a luxury watch you like, you will get readers interested in expensive watches, and you will get ads from luxury watches online shops
Makes any sense ?

Other people are blogging about this matter :
- Ostawlaga's blog add the original idea to encourage shopping online thru the Yuwie shop section (next to the friend's feed on the control panel). This way Yuwie will get a cut from the partner shop and that will increase the RSR !

- Rey's blog is summing it up and provide some other useful links

UPDATE :
Yuwie has recently been banned from google AdSense for violating the TOS, as sharing the ads revenue is considered an incentive for users to click on the ads, so I guess what you've just read doesn't really make sense any more unless Yuwie contract another context related advertiser.
In the meantime, I suppose we have to cope with theses stroboscopic, scammy looking, vision damaging, fluorescent horrible adverts :(
Hope they'll find better advertisers very soon, theses ones are scaring my referrals away!

If you heard of other idea or other related blogs, please refer them to me i will add them here

I love American Idol and I wondered why Jordan's CD was on my page. Now I know! Thanks.
Reply | 11/22/2007 7:36:52 PM
Okkkkkk Now I know why the adds that came up on my myspace page fit what my blogs were about. I never gave it much thought. I just blogged what I thought interesting, and had conversations with friends. I hate to think what that spaces adds are like now...now that I took everything off my page, and left it bare bones and sarcastic.

Hey, great post, am gonna link to this blog post okay?... =)

I totally agree with you Marco. If posts are interesting and talking about something, ads will be targeted and clicks on it will increase so will the user revenue.
Yuwie needs good content and only user can provide it.
So I encourage people to take more time before posting.
Other tips to increase the RSR:
- Prefer texts rather than pictures.
- Don't hesitate to add relevant external links.
- Don't use to much abbreviation and watch you orthography.
- Make useful posts that can help others.
- Stay focus on the topic.

People multiplies useless posts to make page views because they think it will increase their revenue. THEY ARE WRONG. ONLY QUALITY CONTENT CAN INCREASE THE RSR.

Hi Goran, thanks for your feedback
To answer your question, i think the ChocolateLoversCLub is perfect with a tiny little critic, i don't think the yellow font on white background is the best choice for readability.
As for the subject and the content, it's nice and a very good choice for a club.
I'm just wondering why i keep getting the "work at home opportunity" banner instead of chocolate related ads when i browse it. Apparently either the googlebot is confused by something or there is no chocolate advertiser at the moment for this size of banner.
I would bet on the first solution, maybe the global topic of Yuwie is taking over the specific topic of the page.
To be investigated ;)

Thanks Marco!
You helped me out here, tell me. Is the Chocoalate Lovers Club done the right style then? (it is not mine)
