PRWEB — June 5 — AOL and meetic, Europe’s leading singles forum, have joined forces to help lonely hearts on their quest for a soul mate. On June 1, 2005, as part of a long-term strategic collaboration, a personals/matchmaking channel will be launched on AOL.
Mark Brooks: Match also claims to be largest Euro dating site. Depends on whose numbers you look at. Nielsen numbers favors Meetic. Comscore numbers favor Match. While I was at FriendFinder I looked at both sets of numbers for FriendFinder. They were waaaaay different. Alarmingly so. At the end of 2003 Comscore was pulling from a 110,000 strong panel whereas Nielsen Netratings was pulling from 55,000. I bet on Comscore at the time. Hitwise pulls from a panel of millions (via ISP’s) but they don’t give extrapolated ‘uniques’ numbers, just rankings.
