Very Naughty switches to free membership for women

February 18th, 2010


Adult and naughty dating niche are known for the low customer satisfaction level from their customers, it is in fact rumoured that that is one of the reasons Gumtree discontinued its dating section.
One of the causes of such high level of dissatisfaction is the ration of women to men at adult dating site where both men and women pay for full membership, the number of men usually grossly outnumbers women sometimes by as much as 20:1.

A spokesperson for Very Naughty said the ration of men to women in its database is just like the industry’s average. To redress the balance, from Monday the 22nd of February 2010, women will be able to join very naughty dating free of charge. Very Naughty is also addressing other issues female members of its site have complained about in the past which was the amount of messages from me, a new tool is being introduced for female users which makes it impossible for a male member to contact them if the female members has not giving explicit permission to do so.

“Our new payment model, coupled with the new innovations we have introduced will make using our adult dating platform very exciting for men” said Very Naughty spokes person.

The adult dating

February 8th, 2010

Adult dating is becoming increasingly popular amongst all ages of people. This is clearly visible as there are many dating sites which are being frequented by adults just for the sheer fun and excitement. There are many adult themed communities and it becomes difficult to choose the best from amongst them. Adult dating services simplifies and makes selection easier and uncomplicated. Swinger

Adult dating services are speciality sites wherein you can get full information about the variety of adult communities and the best one from amongst them. Check out for the reviews on these sites. The quality rating or the star rating would enable you to make a choice. Depending on the five star rating and efficiency feedbacks, you can get to choose on the community you intend joining.

Sites which are prompt in updating their sites with the requisite information are the best ones. The communities have to ensure that the relevant information and the latest news be displayed on their sites, if they have to attract more eyeballs.

There are many services which do not encourage users from joining adult themed communities. This approach is however not appreciated as the online services need to be open minded about things and not be pre judgemental about adults who just want to have a fun filled life. For adults, who do not want to pay money for using the adult dating services, they need not worry at all as these sites are absolutely free of charge. These dating services are like a directory for online communities and it aims at bringing people with similar thoughts under one roof.

Adult dating services have the requisite information which helps you decide on the community to join. It helps you to quickly navigate and check out the site of your choice.

If you are looking out for swinger information in Australia, then Swinger-Nation is the site for adults who are attracted and fascinated in swinging.  It lends the right information on the type of lifestyle to live and tips on how to be a part of this circle. The site is least interested in your marital status and anyone can be a part of the club. There are some golden rules which can be referred to so as to ensure that you have a good time at this site.

There is a large population of vibrant swinging community in Australia. There are many clubs here and you could choose the community or group of your choice. Do your research well and your homework so that you know for sure what to join and what to expect.

Swinging is still perceived to be a social stigma that it is something dirty and naughty. All these are misconceptions which people should ignore. You are here just to have fun and lot of excitement.

It is a misconceived notion that men are the first to make the initial move. This is although not true. It is the female in most cases who take the initiative in a relationship.

Swinging came into effect somewhere in the fifties and sixties. The internet has made meeting a hassle free process and so much easier. You could connect anywhere at the club, parties or at home. Last but not the least, adult dating can be real fun, but you need to check out good sites.

Lovestruck.com – meet your date at lunchtime

January 31st, 2010
LoveStruck.com

LoveStruck.com

One of the most boring aspect of blogging for Top UK dating sites happens when you are to review a “new dating site” which turns out to look and work exactly like thousands of other online dating sites, without any distinguishing features and the complete absence of some new exciting innovation or the introduction of a fresh angle to online dating.
LoveStruck.com does not fall into the aforementioned category, it is really new, fresh, exciting and completely different from most dating sites. The difference hits you from the moment you arrive a their homepage with their plain style of writing and the brutally honest and amusing way you are encouraged to skive work to find love, which some of us actually do but will not admit to.

To find out why and how LoveStruck.com came up with this radically different approach to online dating, we put some questions to their managing directory Brett Harding. Brett’s answer to our questions follows:

TUKDS: How did LoveStruck come to be?
Brett Harding: Picture this: It’s 2006. We were single, bored of clubs and bars and decided to try Internet dating. We discovered pretty quickly that the main dating sites were like global used car yards of single people. The members seemed totally different to us, and normally miles – or even countries – apart. And when we arranged a date, there was normally no spark (you can’t test chemistry over the internet – yet), and three gruelling hours lay ahead. Unsuccessful dates are a major time and financial sacrifice for any busy single. There had to be a better way.

We spend 51.4 of our 168-hour weeks at or around work. Spending a vast proportion of our life in or around work makes it no coincidence that a third of all relationships begin in the workplace. Like-minded people, similar aspirations – put simply, birds of a feather flocking together. But office romances are often considered taboo. A case of ‘right idea, wrong office’, perhaps. That’s when we had our Lovestruck Epiphany™….

The solution was a site that introduced people who work near each other, to each other, for quick coffee, lunchtime or after-work dates. Imagine networking the 300,000 in the Square Mile, the 100,000 in Canary Wharf, the 9 million in Tokyo or the 13 million in Mumbai. In a nutshell, this type of 1-hour dating saves and optimises time, saves money and is arguably safer. It’s also less of a commitment. After all, it’s only lunch or a quick drink.

TUKDS: When did Love Struck first hit the net?
Brett Harding: August 2006.

TUKDS: There are thousands of dating sites online, why another one, why Love Struck?
Brett Harding: The USP that singles can search for others who work nearby equates to:

Proximity: With city-specific sites, potential dates are very close by. Members state that this makes the whole online dating experience feel less ‘virtual’. It also puts us in a perfect position to capitalise on mobile dating.

Immediacy: With ‘FreeForLunch’ and ‘FreeTonight’, Members can click a button on their profile to flash that they’re free that day. It’s immediate gratification: no waiting, no endless emails.

Quality: No unemployed. No nefarious types – a priceless filter that time-poor city singles continue to pay for.

TUKDS: How do you see online dating in general evolving and where do you see Love Struck in that evolution?
Brett Harding: Of course, mobile will play a huge part in the evolving dating landscape, and location-based dating will come to the fore. I believe that, with front-facing cameras, the first date will be conducted via real-time video, and then the daters decide whether the chemistry is there and agree to meet up or call it a day! This is not far away, as Apple has recently issued a patent for such a device on their iPhone!

TUKDS: Where is Love Struck based?
Brett Harding: Southwark, London.

TUKDS: You recently secure over a quarter of a million pounds funding, what aspect of your operation will you be spending it on?
Brett Harding: The majority will go on measurable marketing, and we don’t just mean Google. We’re testing tube ads, radio ads, banner ads, social media – the whole spectrum. The remainder is being invested into technology, especially mobile technology, as we feel that our location-aware USP is already half-way there.

TUKDS: Who are you site’s core audience?
Brett Harding:Time-poor single professionals of all ages, but the majority are 25-44.

TUKDS: You seem to specialise in matching city people only, what happens if a non city worker wants to join Love Struck?
Brett Harding: By the term ‘city’, we mean London, not the ‘Square Mile’. So if you have a job but work in the suburbs, then you’re more than welcome to join.

TUKDS: You don’t seem to charge for your services at the moment, how do you hope to give your investors return on their investment?
Brett Harding: We are testing different business models at the moment, but we employ a hybrid model for London where you pay to contact, but it’s free to reply. It sits between ‘freemium’ and the normal dating business model of both parties having to pay (a little unfair, and one that many members are not aware of). We plan to supplement the revenue with a variety of other revenue streams.

TUKDS: Anything else you with to tell our readers about Love Struck?
Brett Harding: We’re on a mission to improve the perception of online dating. Come and try it for yourself!
