How Much Money Can Be Made In Online Dating?
The online dating industry has seen average pricing jump from $19.99 per month to industry averages of $49-59 dollars per month for dating subscribers in the U.S.
Some analyst predict that by 2008, revenues for dating-related sites will top $600 million.
It's not just an American opportunity either: European online services are seeing revenues jump by nearly half, with revenues potentially topping €200 million by year's end.
What Types of Dating Sites Are Out There?
There are a number of different models for online dating sites:
- eHarmony.com is an example of a relationship site: one that actively works (in eHarmony's case with a profiling test) to evaluate and present only similarly matched singles to subscribers
- Match.com is typical of general dating sites where there is no active matching, but rather an open interplay between subscribers
- Niche services, like jdates.com seek to appeal to a specific demographic — in the case of jdates.com, Jewish singles are the target audience
The industry remains vibrant, and innovative businesspeople are continuing to find a solid revenue stream in the sector.
