MIAMI—YourVids, a creator-centric platform known for its 100% earnings model, has launched Shoutouts, a native marketplace designed to streamline paid promotions and "share-for-share" (S4S) networking between creators.
The feature allows creators to set transparent pricing for social media promotions, such as posts or retweets on X (formerly Twitter). By formalizing these transactions within the YourVids ecosystem, the platform aims to reduce friction and minimize security risks often associated with third-party promotion deals.
The initiative was born out of a desire to make audience-building more accessible. Traditionally, high-level networking and "S4S" opportunities have been gatekept within private Telegram or X groups that often require creators to prove they are in the "top 1%" of earners on major platforms before being considered for a reshare.
This creates a significant hurdle for new or smaller models looking to scale their reach.
Gino, CEO of YourVids, emphasized that this update is a direct response to the ethical and structural hurdles found in the creator economy.
"From an ethical point of view, we are trying to make S4S accessible to any creator of any size, leveling the playing field," Gino said. "Typically, creators are restricted to private groups that make it really hard for new or small models to grow. We created this because we think it is important that growth isn't just for the top 1%."
