Meetic Continues to Dominate EU Dating Market

by David Evans on July 6, 2006 in Dating Sites

Meetic continues as the leader in certain parts Europe. 8.3 million visitors in May, market share in the 50% range in France, Italy and Spanish markets. I wish Match and Yahoo would provide more details about their EU market share for comparison. Last year they were all splitting hairs about how to define the most popular sites. Need more data.

If you’re going to send a press release, send it as plain text with a link to the release on your site. PDF’s are not good for this.
