		<description>Scott Werner, 
That&#039;s a very good idea..But someone they just don&#039;t want to reply. I ran a Free Dating site as well, as a hobby and something to do when i&#039;m free (if i&#039;m ever free) and send emails to some of the florist, but none ever replied. 

And thanks for the stats!</description>

		<description>3 cheers for the lil guy!!! Because yes, it can be done... It has been proven.

Aside from all the social sites, it&#039;s the start ups that keep the big guys on their toes. Even if you are running a free site for dating or just dating tips, you can improve the experience for many users on all levels. 

I&#039;m not personally trying to keep up with the Jones&#039; or compete with them but instead offering simple insights and basic understandings of how dating services online and off should be used. 

My sites success is dependent on free info and the authority factor of my content. Without these, my ads would be useless and the work involved would be futile. And again I&#039;m not concerned with competing because there is more than enough pie to go around.
 
I&#039;m interested in speaking to anyone with or working on a new dating site. I don&#039;t care if it&#039;s a free one or paid. I think that a cooperative agreement between multiple dating sites and services would be benficial for all involved.

Thanks TechCrunch, for a great post.. Keep &#039;em coming.

Stop by http://www.onlinedatingindex.net to see what you need to know before using online dating services and leave a comment for me. I&#039;d appreciate it and to show my thanks, I&#039;ll return the favor..</description>

		<description>I approached my girlfriend to go for an outing yesterday night with me but she refused to do so as she had an emergency work to be done yesterday. But the way she rejected really heart me and I think that our relationship will not be alive any more as I am loosing my feelings towards her gradually. Last night i got an amazing site where i can post my feelings or anything about what happened with me last night. Visit http://www.lastnightwas.com for more info.</description>

		<description>I think the RealRating system won’t work. I’ve seen other startup dating sites attempt this and its basically a way to talk trash about another person if you had a bad date or if you were dumped. If a hot person actually went on a date and met their match then they will no longer use the real rating dating site but jealous exs might trash that person out of jealousy or desire to win them back. On the flip side, Losers will never get a date with constant negative feedback. So it can essentially devolve into Loser Central where everyone is trashing one another! But with all these losers out there, the site could make a killing with affiliate dating for the premium paid sites.</description>

		<description>To get back to the topic, I believe in the world of dating sites, Free dating sites can truly become a small problem for paid sites. But then there is also the budgeting factor. These big name (paid) dating sites must have an enormous budgeting plan.

Being able to advertise on TV or Radio, That would be somewhat of a dream for me. I believe they will hold there ground by being able to regularly update there site. 

I have put in allot of work to get my 100% free dating site off the ground http://www.HookingUpNY.com where I offer all features for free.  I am willing to push all the way.  

So as for being a problem for paid dating sites, I don&#039;t think they will have a big problem competing with free sites.</description>

		<description>The idea of the “RealRating” system Down to Earth has implemented is seriously flawed. In theory this concept seems like a great advantage for users of the site, but in reality it’s no different than the feedback between buyer and seller on ebay.

Users will refrain from posting a negative RealRating for another user in fear of receiving a similar rating in return. What could be worse than being active on a dating site where you have stars next to your username showing how much of a liar you are? Try getting a date after your last two out of three gave negative feedback…

On the contrary, the RealRating system could work as planned. Users with outdated pictures may update them after receiving a poor rating and may result in a more honest dating site. Although this still does not protect from simply having a bad date and the feedback consequences that may arise from that situation.</description>

		<description>About Myself .
 I am , romantic but at the same time I try to be objective evaluating the world surrounding me. I do like admiring the seascape which make you feel like leaving for a distant journey, learning something new you have never known before. I like dancing in the discotheques and spending romantic evenings with candlelight listening to quiet melodies. I take interest in fitness, swimming and often make runs along the sea side. I like cooking but tasting something another person has cooked feels fine, too. I know that somewhere in this world there is a person who wants to find love, hope and mutual understanding as much as I do. The relations between a man and a woman should be based on trust and respect, being able to solve any problem by the way of compromises. That’s the way to keep the sparkle of love burning for many years. I have been looking for a wwoman to share all the secret things with him and to feel her presence despite many miles between us... My one and only, where are you? I want to find you so much...</description>
