Markus tells us that Plentyoffish accounts for nearly 25% of English-speaking Canadian online singles. More than 35,000 Canadian members visit Plentyoffish.com each weekday looking for their perfect match. Plentyoffish.com is comprised of only one employee. Sites of comparable size rarely operate with a staff under 50 employees. Technology costs are at a minimum when compared with AmericanSingles.com, whose costs exceed $500,000. Plentyoffish.com garners the same amount of online traffic while keeping costs less than $10,000 per month not including advertising.
CEO Markus Frind:
With the recent success of Plentyoffish.com in the Canadian dating market, the executives of Lavalife.com, AmericanSingles.com and other major dating sites must realize their days are numbered. Who wants to pay when they can get a superior product for free?
Not sure about days being numbered but Markus seems to have a solid grip on the Canadian dating market.
