Dating sites are very popular among people between 18 and 60 years old, so they can be very profitable for their owners. In addition, in many ways, the site is filled free of charge by the users themselves, posting profiles, leaving notes, comments, photographs and other materials.
The basics of creating a dating site
Pay special attention to the choice of hosting. You must be prepared for the fact that after the promotion of the site, thousands of people will visit every day, which means that it must withstand such a load and not "slow down" when opening pages. Moreover, each profile requires space, and when their number exceeds 10-20 thousand - which is far from the limit for a good site, this can become a problem. That is why it is recommended to choose in advance a reliable hoster with a responsive support service, as well as a tariff plan that will allow you to support even a "heavy" site with a lot of materials.
It is also important to pay attention to the domain name. It should be simple, memorable and evocative. If a user wants to find exactly your resource in order to recommend it to someone or to re-register himself, he must know exactly what request to enter or how to write the website address. Otherwise, it will most likely end up with your competitors, and you will lose a valuable client.
After paying for hosting and buying a domain name, proceed to the design and content of the site. It needs to be beautiful but not annoying. There is no need to add many different blocks creating unnecessary stress and distracting users. A good option is to hire a specialist who will create a website for you and develop its design taking into account all the requirements.
Remember that a dating site should be very clear to use and user-friendly. People of different ages, with different levels of computer knowledge can come to you, and all of them, without exception, should be easy and comfortable.
How to make your dating site popular
It is important not only to advertise your resource, but also to make it as interesting as possible for the user and for search engines. Otherwise, you will only waste your money on advertising. Work on the content: make it interesting for users to use the site. Pay special attention to your search. It's good if unregistered users can view some profiles - this will push them to register.
Be sure to create a special service for which they will come to you. This can be a test for the compatibility of partners with the search function by questionnaires, convenient tests with a description of the personality, anonymous chats for those who are embarrassed to communicate openly, a question-and-answer service, and free psychological assistance.
