Which then attracts even more people who can now see an entire members area for free.
Then using those traffic numbers, the tube sites sell pre-paid advertising spots to dating sites. Which is pretty much the only game in town for tube traffic other than selling pop-ups and blind link traffic to brokers to re-sell.
So the whole business model is entirely based on traffic without a real sale coming into the equation at all.
