Yeah, I agree, people will still go to AFF to see naked profiles and sign up hoping to get with those people.Originally posted by James-ARComment

Free Idea of the day (Feel free to use it): How about a PAY AS YOU GO type dating site? Pay per action.
If you think about it, this may result in MORE revenue per customer since 1) you're getting more customers to sign up 2) actions accumulate with familiarity/confidence in the system.
If anyone wants Webmasterlabor.Com to help them BUILD such a site using an existing Pay As You go sponsor, hit me up

The truth is that some "dating" sites do little to help people.
A successful dating site is a "Catch 22" in the short-run.
A successful dating site will hook people up and lose them as customers, therefore needing to create a much larger push for new membership.
An unsuccessful dating site will not hook people up well and customers will leave and not easily come back.
The good thing about the singles market is that it's cyclical.
All people are single at some point in their life.
A truly good dating site will realize that a customer has a longer lifespan than the 12 to 18 months they spend on your dating site.You deserve to make more money. I'll help you do that.
Our affiliates earn up to $3/email or $107/sale

MySpace's search function is awful ... for dating or for just searching profiles on almost any criteria. Unless they fix that mess, dating sites have nothing to worry aboutComment

You don't have to take it so personal. It wasn't meant that way.
Hell, I drvie traffic to these things myself. Not bad on conversions either. But I think they would convert more if they were lower priced.Comment

Maybe the conversions would be better, but that doesn't mean you'd make more money. Everyone says too expensive, but they buy anyways.Originally posted by G-RoticaComment

for those who think myspace will have a dent on adult dating sites...i think comparing myspace and adult dating sites is apples and oranges,peeps on myspace are not nessarily looking for erotic encounters,adult dating sites are only for that...Ross Horwitz

I think that's why Lavalife is popular since it's doesn't use a flat fee that rebills monthly and instead charges per email, and only the first email with a new girl costs you, the rest are free.Originally posted by $5 submissionsFree Idea of the day (Feel free to use it): How about a PAY AS YOU GO type dating site?

Great MSNBC article! I do think that the dating model is still in its early middle stages and there's still room for innovations (technical, marketing, and communication technologies) to address the issues of trust and effectiveness.Comment
