I couldn’t improve on that classic headline in today’s Wall Street Journal article about PlentyofFish.
Reporter Lee Comes calls PlentyofFish a “model for the next generation of Web entrepreneurship.” He actually travelled to PoF world headquarters, which is Markus’s spare bedroom. At one point during the visit, 43,000 people were at PlentyOfFish, with 500 Web pages a second being sent out. That’s some serious traffic.
Markus, join my dating blog network!

Missed you at the last couple of Social Media Club events. Next up is June 21 in Watertown - Measuring the ROI of Social Media. Online dating seems like a perfect ROI measure ;-]
By the way, the reporter at WSJ is Lee Gomes.
Cheers, Adam
we offer:
- fake profiles
- user photographs that are obviously model shots
- Wendy, our hot ‘creator’ of the website is really a dude
from Toronto named Darren who has another dating website
- We offer BIYC get togethers but they are in collaboration
with Darren’s PAY service to meet people. Darren even promotes
BIYC on his PAY website
- We spam Facebook DAILY to dozens of cities
- We add you to Myspace and SPAM your wall every weekend
- Our ads on Facebook all use a handful of the same photos but
we use different names for each photo.
Dare to compare?

by us. The photos we use for the profiles are found on model clip-art
cd’s.
