As my past experience, I would like to suggest you to use social networking site.
This kind of site can play most effective role. most people are there for relationship and they are seeking to some one for friendship like relation so you can target your site there.
Put some interesting profile on your home page to attract people and extend their stay there.
Use instant messaging system and email messaging so any one join with Gmail or yahoo ID you can get all its contact list and send them mail to join too.
Try some unique Idea like create poll, use prize and free gift.
I am just about to launch a uk dating website the problem is with so many big companies out there what is the best way to get my brand out there I will be starting my own database of users as I don’t want to share profiles if any one has any ideas or any tips please let me know
Thanks Rick
First of all Congrats for your new dating website. There are lots of ways of advertising but you have to think yourself that how much amount you can effort for advertisement. So could you tell me your budget? Hope I will be able to suggest you a best way according to your budget.
Lifestyle magazines great. try to network with the magazine
editors and they'll feature u free. Send them a card
and introduce yourself I got 3 frens in the dating arena
earning 6 figures, bout $200,000 a year.
I would recommend:
* Link exchange with other related sites.
* Make announcements in different forums and blogs.
* Do banner promotion or exchange
* PPC ad
* Social Networking Site like Myspace is a good place to promote your site.
* Starting from a local niche
* Make an ebook about dating guide and sell it on ebay.
Promoting a dating site is a hard work process, we have to really consistently submitting and promoting it.
