If you take adult dating sites for example, they can afford to pay their affiliates up to $130 per signup so I guess $30 is very cheap for certain types of dating sites.

Some people are really paying that $30 just for online dating. Sounds different.

Once the join happens, there are upsells all over the place. Now, from a business stand point, rock on…if you can upsell your existing customer base, power to you.

Also, if anyone needs to question weather or not Internet Matchmaking is ready for partnership or not…should check out a conference that’s been around now for about 2 years called “iDate”. It’s thrown by a guy who gets the dating space and is seeing it grow exponentially.

Well, one must realize that they are all giving up a certain amount of server load and bandwidth to “tease” the internet dater into the mouse trap. The join!

Once the join happens, there are upsells all over the place. Now, from a business stand point, rock on…if you can upsell your existing customer base, power to you.

The power of online dating has grown tremendously and from a partnership standpoint, dating sites will convert traffic that traditional sites may not be able to monetize for a variety of reasons.

But I would negotiate with each prospective dating company you are entertaining and they will all cut deals based on volume and even conversion.

The answer is always “No” unless you ask!”

They pay “up to $30” a month and some sites do have plans at that rate. There are free ones to. You can check out OKCupid.com, for example. The level of service and matchmaking capability and interaction ranges from one site to the next.

$30, as if people pay that! I thought these would be hit pretty hard to be honest.

It is pretty steep, yet some higher profile sites do charge that in some of their monthly plans.

I don’t use online dating, but I would assume that services like this would be among the first hit – $30/mo back in your pocket is hard to pass up during times like this!!

$30/month is way too much. I can’t believe people pay that.
