However, I question business models that rely too heavily on Google.

Is there a way to confirm that? I have no doubt he makes money but how can you be sure it's as much as he says? Just by his word alone? Everybody on GFY including me is a millionaire too.Comment

It's just him and one other person (his wife i believe) who runs the site, he pays only 14k a month in server costs, Google loves him (apparently), he profits probaly close to 350k a month after advertising (if any).Originally posted by DaddyHalbucks
Do you want to question that business model again?
Google bans him he goes to one of the other contextual ad companies.196-900-713Comment

That is freaking awesome. I think the only downside is if he puts dating sites out of business and his ad revenue gets cut in half because of it.
I love shit like this. Just when you think the last new mouse trap was invented. Bammm!!!

At the end of the day I'm not happy to see sites like this work.Originally posted by slapass
Why, you ask?
Because it does shift consumers to using the free dating site model. That model doesn't profit even 5% as much as the paid model which pays us accordingly. Free dating kills that industry and in turn our profits.
In 5 years all of them wil be free. Goldrush=Over.
But, was it necessary? No, there was no reason to lowball the industry just to get in the door. Sure it takes just a little bit more work to make money in that game but as all of us here know, it's not hard to get people to signup to damn near anything. Someone with his immense automation skills could have done better going the paid route.I've trusted my sites to them for over a decade...

adsense is easy but if someone took the time much more money could be made with that amount of trafficComment

The guy seems to have spent so much time on the server side that he couldn't even make a clear header image, its all distorted/pixelated.Comment

I find it funny that he considers himself in the same league as Match.com. Match is doing more than a hundred million dollars a year in profit.
Also, I think a lot of his Adsense revenue comes from other dating sites Google ads. He puts down those same dating sites that he makes most of his money off. Quite ironic really.
What would happen if all the dating sites excluded him from their adsense campaign?Comment

I am pretty sure I have seen this guy advertise his sites on TV in the Toronto area as well.Comment

they would only pull the links if his clicks didn't convert.Originally posted by MrLuvr
one important question though - people are still joining match.com and other sites in droves, so what features do they offer that plentyoffish.com doesn't?Comment
-
I don't think there is any way to tell if his Google links convert or not, is there? As far as I can tell, the stats just show them coming from Google Syndication, not the name of the site. If there is a way to know which sites the clicks come from, i woud love to know.Originally posted by jjjay
And no, they are not joining Match.com in the same droves they were before. Myspace and other social networking sites have cut into their market in a big way.Comment
-
Ha, what would you do advertise competition directly? Adsense per click pays so much in those markets that you make far more from the companies paying for branding than you do from any sponsors you want to sell.Originally posted by detoxedComment

Different fucking ads would show up and the morons would click like always. Make sense?Originally posted by MrLuvrComment

good point. I'm pretty sure you can track which sites AdSense clicks come from, and then filter out the sites that don't work for you using site exclusion.Originally posted by MrLuvr
on the other hand, they may perhaps be using site targeted ads so they'll then know exactly how many views and clicks they're getting
interesting. I guess those companies will have to move with the times or keep losing market share.And no, they are not joining Match.com in the same droves they were before. Myspace and other social networking sites have cut into their market in a big way.Comment

the site owner himself. his exact words were "I made $1 million in three months with Adsense"Originally posted by cranki
also, further up this thread a friend of his confirms he got a $900,000 check from google for two months worth of clicksComment

Umm.. there is a big difference between penis enlargement and dating.
