Mark Brooks: Adding compelling content to your dating site is a good move. Their are two methods. 1. Pay writers, 2. Encourage users to write. Match and Lavalife have gone with option 1. FriendFinder and PlentyofFish have gone with option 2 in the form of a user contributed magazine where readers vote up the good articles, and in the case of PlentyofFish, user forums.
A last ditch effort to save a sinking ship…
Our site contains both articles and forums. Members are allowed to post articles. Articles are reviewed and approved for quality prior to posting.
We also offer forums. In our forums we have Member Surveys, where a question is asked and many members can reply with their opinions. These can be anonymous, or include the member’s alias and link to their profile. If anonymous, it includes their gender and age range. There is wisdom in the multitude of counsellors and this is a very popular area.
God bless,
