Quick Dating Links for July 29 - August 03, 2008
- I have an idea in my mind to make sort of mobile dating research. Unlike traditional online dating, mobile dating is popular with younger generation and is likely to grow in popularity. While I have just a vague idea and plans about mobile dating research I come across really cool posts in that very niche like this one:
with list of tools,
with list of mobile dating services
with some general tips
- How to marry a billionaire? We have some services featured with our website that will help you to find one. For more tips what it takes - do not miss this article
- Dating tips produced in tons and come in all forms and shapes I assume they are in demand or bloggers and writers ‘produce’ them for content sake? Become a better kisser following MSN dating tips.
- Who is an ideal husband?
“Never marry a man who has no friends. Does he use money responsibly? Is he stingy? Is he overly attached to his mother and her mythical apron strings? Does he have a sense of humor? Read a complete profile of ideal husband, go and find one…
- When to reveal your secret to a date? Not an easy question to answer. Most dating people that meet each other online have some personal secrets like:
history of sexually transmitted diseases,
conviction for drunken driving,
obsession with video games
When and how to reveal those secrets?
Dating Services Most Favored By Google (Or Best Marketed?)
I would like to carry out another test with selected dating sites – my plan is to check how many pages indexed by Google and how many incoming links Google displays for each particular site.
This info is to show how good those dating services are at online marketing and search engine optimization.
As a result, we will see Google most saturated dating sites. It is another metric to evaluate general performance of online dating services. Websites with 100 000 indexed pages are likely to do better than those with 1000. Google will not crawl insignificant (from his bot’s point of view) sites that deep and much.
When it comes to incoming links I should mention that Google does not display all links with his command link:www.site.com So, the stats do not reflects all dating service incoming links, but part of them.
I will do this test with general dating services that as we know from our previous researches are much more trafficked than specialty services.

It is not the first time we see that search engines data is not as reliable as we would like it to be. One test shows us that certain dating services are on top, another test conducted in the same search engine proves that completely different services should be doing great with search engines. Though with our today’s test it is quite possible that numerous pages are protected from bot crawling for privacy issues.
What data are reliable? I think the data that the dating services get using their in-house web analytics systems. The data that no outsider can get access to…

- A DNA based dating site announcement made: We Have Our First DNA-Based Dating Service: GenePartner
Do you find any difference with this service Or is it the same one?
- CNN publishes a study details (that are two years old) where they state that many black women are single compared to white; and the conclusion is:
Forty-five percent of black women in America have never been married, compared with 23 percent of white women, according to the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey in 2006. Articles like the one published in the Washington Post two years ago could lead me to believe that it’s because “Marriage is for White People.”
- Yahoo! Personals never stops sharing dating tips. This time – dating older woman tips.
