                     Appointment of Non-Executive Chairman


YouGov plc ('YouGov' or the 'Company'), the UK's leading online market research
agency, announced today the appointment of Roger Parry as a non-executive
director with immediate effect and non-executive Chairman from 26 April 2007.


Mr Parry began his career as a journalist working at the BBC and ITV. He then
went on to work at McKinsey before moving to WCRS and Aegis Group plc. He was
Chief Executive of More Group plc when it was sold to Clear Channel and went on
to become Chairman and CEO of Clear Channel International. Mr Parry is currently
non-executive Chairman of Johnston Press plc, Future plc and Mobile Streams plc.
He is also Chairman of Shakespeare's Globe Trust.


As announced on 9 October 2006, the appointment of an independent non-executive
Chairman is consistent with the Company's plans to ensure that the management
structure will support YouGov's growth ambitions. On 26 April, Peter Kellner
will assume the role of President and remain a non-executive director of YouGov
plc. This will allow Mr Kellner to focus on the Company's media and political
clients and take on additional responsibility for developing research
methodologies.


Commenting on the appointment Peter Kellner said:

'Roger's appointment will further strengthen the Board at a very exciting time
in YouGov's development. He has considerable experience of both the media sector
and international business. He also shares the drive and enthusiasm that we
believe will ensure that the Company can capitalise on the considerable
opportunities in the rapidly changing market research sector.'


Roger Parry added:

'I am delighted to have been invited to join the YouGov team. Market research
has played an important role in many of the commercial decisions I have made in
the last 25 years and I have never seen a better set of products. By using
technology and the access that the internet provides I really do believe that
they have built a better mouse trap and I very much look forward to working with
the Company as it continues to grow.'
