The flooded U.S. Market with 1500+ dating sites…Its Time to look for a New Destination
Monday, February 6th, 2012
According to MarketResearch.com a leading market research company, the U.S. Dating market has reached an annual $2.1 billion business. It has been gaining momentum since 2001 and is now over 50 percent of the total market. This is a high percentage for a single nation. Dating and matchmaking industry has been with us for a long time but with the advent of internet dating industry it has through many changes and reforms and even more so with the success of social media.
The research information published by Market Research shows comprehensive information as it has engaged with opinions and views from different section/experts of the dating industry like free dating sites, paid dating sites, dating coach, singles demographics, matchmakers and Census data taking in relation to the market size and forecasting data from 1994 to 2015.
The big question that comes to everyone’s mind is that if U.S.A. dating industry is getting saturated where would the market be in 2012? Answering this can be easy but well as tricky due to the changing landscape of the internet with mobile phones, websites and the social media. There can be different opinion about this, experts might make Asia the favorable market as it has the biggest population compared to other continents and the market is wide open there, but at Jumpdates we have taken the decision from the actual stats which indicated that it is Europe that looks red hot and the next destination for these dating sites and we have our reasons.
Internet penetration is less as compared to Europe and only the eastern part of Asia countries showing higher percentage of potential penetration with cheaper technology.
There are countries in Asia India, Pakistan and other gulf countries that believe in their traditional way of match making as the entire family, especially parents look for bride and groom. There are sites like Shaadi.com and BharatMatrimony.com that has seen a huge success but they are Matrimonial website and not dating sites. The dating is not the part of their traditional philosophy.
Experts might say that with more use of the internet the Indian society is changing, but still this might be many more years before it reaches the levels of the West. When we talk about Europe it is the perfect destination for dating sites in 2012, but before tapping into the European market dating sites needs to get prepared before going there as the local language would play a key role in its success. Those venturing out there with their, dating sites should look to have their site in the local languages.
The recent acquisition of Match.com with meetic in Europe clearly shows the growing market over there as well as Cupid Plc. (UK) whitelabeling websites showing very strong growth.

Survey was conducted on 6000 American online singles and their sexual behavior. Survey has wider approach and shows how orgasm is affected by gender, political view, changing though the process of men about commitment, successful and ambitious women and their view about turn off about bad sex. The survey reveals that bad sex and successful relationship are poles apart, why gay men are the most romantic species and it’s from the conservative Republican.

Conservative Republican says they are satisfied by their sex lives as more than 50 percent of Republican said they a reach climax every time they make love. There is a big 10 percent drop when it comes to Democrats which report 40 percent of satisfaction in the bedroom scene. The claims are most definitely over exaggerated because female orgasms are very complex as compared to males and many women have often claimed that they fake orgasm.
Females Looking for 100% Satisfaction
It has been come to age now when females tolerate half hearted efforts from men in the bed. In there recent survey Match.com 50 percent of females reported that they do not want to continue with men that do not perform when it counts. When it comes to men only 44 of men said that they would call off their relationship if they are not satisfied. This is more likely as a result of males dominance when it comes to sex and a result of their own sexual gratification in terms of orgasms which are by far easier for men.
Practical Approach from Men
There was a time when women would accept even if they don’t get their Mr. Perfect, but now days men are becoming more practical and would like to settle down even if they know that she is not the perfect soul mate or sexual partner. 31 percent of the men compared to 21 percent said that they would commit to their dating partner whom they don’t have sexual attraction.
Men Looking for Commitment
The forum posts on leading dating sites discuss about why women are taking the first strides for asking the date, but this recent survey show that it’s 46 percent men who want to take their relationship to the next level or better phrased as looking for a commitment compared to 26 percent of the women who make up their mind for ringing wedding bells for them.

Politician Gets an Upper Hand than Us
Politician from all over the world found in compromising positions but they don’t mind forgiving them, but they don’t want that is happening to their personal life and look as if to be “Unacceptable”.
Experience Counts
Free senior dating sites has changed the way people choose their dating partner as the older you get the more picker you become for a date. Especially over 60 are the hot property as almost 59 percent said that they almost always get orgasms.
