Young Chinese Singles Join Online Search for Love

Posted on August 9, 2011

Chinese-woman-at-computer THE STRAITS TIMES – Aug 9 - For many young singles in China, Saturday's Chinese Valentine's Day was an urgent reminder for them to get hitched quickly. That in turn prompted more of them to turn to online matchmakers for help. Jiayuan, one of the country's largest dating site, is no exception. It has ~19M active users under the age of 25. The number of unmarried men is expected to exceed that of available women by 24M in 2020, according to the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.

    The Chinese Internet Dating market is one of the hottest emerging idating markets on the planet. Zhenai and Baihe and 51Taonan are the no.2, 3 and 4 players. 51Taonan is free, and the ‘Plentyoffish of China.’ (Full Disclusore: Plentyoffish and 51Taonan are clients of my consultancy, Courtland Brooks).
