+334
Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

YourTango is a significant, established digital publisher (founded 2002) with verifiable reach likely exceeding 10M+ monthly visitors, significantly larger than the calibration benchmark. However, the submission itself is of extremely poor quality, containing hyperbolic claims ('everyone', 'most people') and confusing data ('marketcap: 2500000'). While the underlying asset has high Real-World Utility and Traction, the PoU score is heavily penalized by the lack of verifiable evidence provided in the submission and the vagueness of the response. The score balances the undeniable scale of the platform with the low confidence inspired by the submission data.
