Facebook and Free Dating Sites in USA Poles Apart
Friday, March 9th, 2012
Social networking site Facebook has become the number one place for all age groups to join a social network, but a proportionally large number of online singles in the USA make a common mistake of looking for their dating partner on these networks rather than the free dating sites.

Naturally, there is nothing wrong in trying your luck at different various places, but you may be wasting your valuable time in choosing the wrong medium. “How can one of the biggest social network be the wrong medium for finding other online singles”, you say. Here, I will attempt to answer your question with some examples.
Real life scenario – Online singles signup to free dating sites in the USA to find dating partners to go out on a date, spend quality time with each other and if they find they are a good match, they ultimately marry. The point here is that both of them are unknown to each other before and have first initiated the contact on one of the major free dating sites. However, on Facebook you cannot send messages to unknown persons and if you start sending friend request to anyone that takes your fancy, then your profile is at risk of getting banned for a few hours which can also lead to the profile termination. This is the biggest setback for online singles on Facebook. Although Facebook is a social network, their ultimate aim is to bring friends, relatives etc. together within a social group. You can ultimately make contacts through friends of friends and find singles that way, but there is no guarantee that they are single and looking. By the way, Facebook is an incredibly easy way for singles to share their Facebook ids without having to remember their complicated email or tel. nos.
On the other hand, free dating sites have been designed from the bottom up to promote online singles activity and there is no confusion at all for singles to contact each other. There is a high probability of finding suitable dates by sending unlimited messages and getting to know each other before you decide to go out.

Five Essential Things you need to know about Free Dating Sites
Thursday, March 8th, 2012
Online love has blossomed because of the internet and more and more singles are finding love online through many of the dating websites including free dating sites. Here we provide five essential things to note when you sign up for a dating website and get you into this game as fast as possible.
Top Five Essential reaon to join free dating site
1. Look for a mobile dating app. that the free dating sites offer. If it does, you can be rest assured that the guys behind the site have not only spent good money in developing the app. but they will also most likely have a good number of people signed up to their website. After all who would want to join a free dating site just to talk to the webmaster.
2. Make sure there are no catches ie. read between the dotted line, and make sure there are no fees or charges for using the website. After all free dating sites should be exactly that, FREE.
3. Do a search for free dating sites on various search engines and see what turns up. Most likely Google will have done the hard work for you in locating genuine free dating sites. Type search terms such as ‘100% free dating sites’, ‘top free dating sites’ etc.
4. Once you are signed up to a free dating site, your task has only just begun. Make sure you have good photos of yourself and not just one. Become familiar with the search engine of the free dating site so that you can narrow down your searches to people you are looking for. Then happily start messaging away!
5. I mention this point to many people in all walks of life. Don’t give up too easily, persistence will pay off. Pictures can be deceptive, so just don’t rely on this all the time, use your killer instinct to narrow down your choices and just message away, but make it original. What do you have to lose on free dating sites anyway, right!

Free Dating Sites – Some tips for would-be Entrepreneurs
Thursday, March 8th, 2012
The online dating industry is booming and last year 2011 we saw a proliferation of new online dating sites coming into the market including many free dating sites. This year (2012) there appears to be a lull in the sector of new online dating websites coming into the market. I mainly put this down to the ‘fever’ that takes hold when venture capital firms and pundits drum up interest in this area, so much so that would-be entrepreneurs arrive in droves. Part of the reason for the big hike in 2011 was essentially due to the bigger online dating companies such as match.com posting their strongest growth ever along with a few mergers and acquisitions.
Free Dating Sites – Some tips for would-be Entrepreneurs
It is a sad state of affairs that many new entrepreneurs that are drawn into this market do so with little knowledge of this market. They create new free dating sites that target niche markets such as group dating, geek gadgets dating and even pet dating but unfortunately a majority of them all fall on the wayside. One has to think outside the box rather than follow the current way of thinking. For example, the biggest player in the paid subscription model match.com has remained unchanged since its inception over a decade ago. Similarly the biggest player in the free dating sites model, plentyoffish also remains true to its original form many years ago.
The danger of doing something new and radical has its risks but also has its rewards. One of the biggest component of the business model that many entrepreneurs fail to appreciate is the critical mass that is required in terms of a user base in order to have sustained growth. For some lucky start-ups, the free dating sites are backed by venture capitalists and even then it will take a very focused and concerted effort to hit critical mass. Like many start-ups we have seen in the early days of the internet boon, money can be spent rapidly on a start-up and income is usually based on speculative and often wild forecasts.
Fortunately, the business of online dating has settled into a less speculative model and more of a realistic model but there is still plenty of room to innovate and come up with the next killer application.
