Starting a dating Site

In the age of the internet it is very easy now and convenient to run your own business from home. One of the most accessible internet businesses is having your own dating site. This can provide you with the opportunity to become your own boss but can also provide you with a lucrative income stream.

These days dating sites are easy to setup, don't require much money and are quite easy to maintain. So you can easily start an internet business of this kind.

In this article i will show you all the know how’s into setting up your own dating site and how to market your site.

The idea?

The first thing you have to decide is what sort of dating site you would want to build. You can build a general dating site, with several categories from different fields, or you can build one for a specific niche of people.

There are many general sites out there that cater for the young, old, and the middle aged. You would not be able to compete with these sites, because firstly these sites are well established and secondly you would need a large sum of money to market and advertise to get the traffic coming in.

Niche dating sites are the new aged dating sites these are sites that cater for a certain set of people for example, bikers, hairy men, disabled etc. With these dating sites there is a huge potential to earn big money – with or without serious sums of money which i will show you later.

Remember to do your research and see your competition – you can use Google to find out if your idea is unique and to check on your competitors and see what they are doing.

What Next?

Once you have thought of a dating concept you need to choose a domain name and web hosting service. The domain name should be easy to memorize, not too long, and it should be connected with the type of web business you are developing. I personally use pickaweb.co.uk for both hosting and domain name registration, domain name registration can cost up to $10 and hosting for the year $30 per annum.

Ok you have got your idea, you have chosen a web hosting service and you have chosen a great domain name. You are now ready to build your site. You could hire a web development company to personally develop your website – but this can cost you thousands. However there is another solution you can buy a readymade dating script that can be easily installed on your web hosting accounts server. A good script to use is Easy Dating Soft which is a fully functionally feature rich dating script to start an online dating site, it is easy to use and can be customized to suit your needs.

Ok you got your script, and site if fully customized to suit your needs, all you need to do is bring traffic to it. You can submit it to directories, advertise through Google, write on forums, tell your friends, and any other method that will bring traffic.
