Dating Becoming More Acceptable Amongst the Masses

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

Launching sites in multiple countries is becoming the fashionable thing to do in the dating world. Launching in new territories can be very profitable, especially in countries in which the industry is still relatively young. It seems many of our partners have caught onto this money making idea and their sites are now in full bloom across the world’s net!

Two great examples of new sites that launched in the past week are WotDates.com and MyFirstWebDate.com who have launched internationally, making the most of the untapped potential. WotDates.com and MyFirstWebDate.com have recently launched sites in the USA, Canada, UK, Australia, South Africa and Ireland.

WotDates.com is a prime example of a partner really using their initiative. Not only have they launched in multiple countries and have a PPC campaign in place, they’re also maximising their marketing potential with the use of social media. This includes their very own Twitter account, Facebook fan page and blog. This is a great way of engaging with their members and also building relationships with potential members for the future in a format and media source that they’re comfortable with.

Both sites have great potential and I am sure they will gain great traffic and conversion rates, given that they’re keeping ahead of the game. We wish them the best of luck and can’t wait to see how they perform.

Member Trends Are Changing

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

A recent study carried out by Tim Taylor, CEO of NaughtyCanoodle.com has shown that more women are turning to casual dating sites than ever before. The reasons behind this? Simple… more messages being sent by males on the sites. Women seem to be getting fed up with guys having various different motives, whereas with an adult and casual site women find men are much more honest about what they are looking for. The study which involved a sample of female members from NaughtyCanoodle.com reveals that women are increasing turning towards the more adult site, the main reasons for this, quoted by Tim Taylor:-

“The men that women are finding on these sites are more honest, more in touch with themselves, and clearer about what they are looking for in a relationship. They are refreshingly honest, only looking for a casual relationship – not someone to share the rest of their life with.”

As a result to this study, member communication is increasing day by day, more e-mails are being sent, online chat is increasing and there are first dates going on everywhere! Which is a great result for sites such as NaughtyCanoodle.com

The findings of the study are great news for all the guys out there on the adult and causal networks as this means that there are more evenly based matched memberships on the sites. No string casual fun seems to be what women are looking for at the moment, and why not go directly to an casual site for it, as both parties are clear as to what they are looking for. No messing around and pure honestly.

More Regional Sites Making Huge Profit for Owners!

Thursday, May 14th, 2009

John Taylor is another one of our successful partners who has hugely profited from the great potential of launching sites on different networks across the globe. John’s main and most profitable brand of sites is, Love&Adore. This brand targets the over 40 market on the general network and goes right across the continents, starting in the UK and going through to the US and South Africa. The UK and South African sites have really taken off and are really starting to make a splash for John.

Revenue on Love&Adore UK since January this year has had a 63.9% revenue increase which is great news for John, but the good news doesn’t stop there, this month alone has seen revenue increase by 28.5% in comparison to this time last month proving that the site is really growing in leaps and bounds!

Love&Adore SA is doing incredibly well with the highest conversion rate across the White Label Dating SA platform at 25.3%. That level of conversion is leading to VERY healthy revenues and since March 2009 alone, this has increased by a huge 744%!!

These results are hugely impressive and we hope to see more and more international sites taking off in the near future, because let’s face it, they clearly work! Well Done John.

Feel Like Spreading Some Worldwide Online Love….?

Monday, May 11th, 2009

Dating’s never been more glamorous! One of our most established partners, Angus Thody, has recently launched a dating site for young, wealthy and professional Americans. Elite Dating Group USA was launched last week on the US network. Angus Thody has over 40 sites on the White Label platform, covering the UK, US and South Africa.

His biggest adventure so far has definitely been his progression over into the US network which has had brilliant results for the sites. Angus has recently set up The Dating Group, which includes many new sites of Angus’s such as seniordatinggroup.com , adultdatinggroup.us, 40plusdatinggroup and of course the Elitedating Group.

Elite dating has really taken off, it’s a great way for people with similar interests, and similar cash flows to become friends, have some fun and maybe even find love. Elite dating group quotes:

“Finding and dating someone appropriate online has just become so much easier. You’ll be surprised how quickly you can find a man or woman within your social class. Reassuringly expensive and no time wasters to spoil the experience.”

The Us network has had such great results for Angus, now has never been a better time to get in on the action, why not look into launching new sites in different networks….help spread the love around the world!


Welcoming Statistics coming out of South Africa

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

South Africa has discovered the wonderful world of internet dating and the results have been amazing! Within the casual network, 22% of all women that join up to the sites are going on to upgrade to full paying members, making the South African dating sites incredibly profitable. The good news doesn’t stop there, within the general network, for every full paying male member there is a full paying female member! This 50/50 gender split is awesome news as is unheard of in the UK market. After all, where the girls sign up, the boys are sure to follow…

The dating industry in South Africa is still really young, why not get in on the action and consider launching a site of your own?
