The comments on this Center Networks story about SinglesNet advertising are interesting to say the least:
A woman saying that it’s her photo in SinglesNet ads:

SinglesNet is incredibly stealthy. I’ve talked to executives in the past but they prefer to stay under the radar, which is understandable given their position in the market.
Traffic is down from 9 million visitors to 5 million in the last year. Where is the supposed recession boost? SinglesNet is successful for one reason, they drive a heck of a lot of traffic to the site. Is the cratering of their traffic due to less ad spend? Maybe they are converting members more efficiently and the drop in traffic is not affecting revenues? More questions than answers when it comes to the number one dating site.
