Profle Set Up

2) Don't set your profile to private. If you are worried about getting stalked, don't post pictures of yourself or personal info. (Only a suggestion, you may of course be a private person if you want to be. Be aware, a private profile makes it much harder to make friends and get page views. page views = $$$)

3) Go to: Account Settings > Privacy Settings :: Make sure that EVERYONE can comment you and message you. If somone is bothering you, simply click the block button in the message and you will never hear from them again. :)

4) Get a nice layout so people have something pretty to look at! :) Go HERE for Yuwie Layouts!

5) Fill out your "Bio" and "Interests" sections.
Go to: Control Panel > Edit Profile :: You will see your "bio" and "interests" tabs in the middle.

6) Make use of your "Shout Box". Put in a picture slide show, or guest book, or just some cool graphics you found that reflect who you are. Your "Shout Box" is located in another tab next to your "Bio" and "Interests" tabs.

7) Post your first blog.
You will see in your Control Panel some grey boxes. Hover over them until you see the one for Blogs.
This is where you get to be creative! Post about anything you want! Movie reviews, jokes, current events...whatever! If you have writers block, just do a google search on any subject interests YOU. When you find something that catches your attention, write about it in your blog. Title that blog the catchy title that caught your eye in the first place. (Make sure you include a link to the web page you found your info from)

OK! So far so good! You now officially have a Yuwie presence. Now, you need a few new friends to make you feel right at home. I'm willing to bet that you already have a few requests waiting for you!
