I feel a lot of users are confused about how the new Premium system actually works and how it is beneficial to the site and to you.
Each Follow, Like, View, etc used to cost around 15 Points because of the old Premium system. They now only cost up to 10 Points.
With the new Premium system you will show up before everyone else that has the same Payout that you have that is not Premium. Users can still become Premium without buying packages using real money by Liking 100 Facebook Pages. They can do this as many times as they want per day which will increase the # of Facebook Likes given out. Currently Facebook and Twitter are by far the most popular features on the site and this might switch from 100 Follows to 100 Likes to balance activity.
YouLikeHits goal with this change is to increase the value of Premium, increase the value of Points and to increase the amount of Likes.
