Plenty of Fish Owner Searches Opens Paid Dating Site
Tuesday, 23rd June, 2009
Earlier this year, Markus Frind – owner of the free online dating site
PlentyofFish,com -- announced that he was searching for a site on which
to build a new dating network. He has recently set his eyes on
OnlineDating.org, and talks have begun between Frind and the site’s
owner. His new site will come as big change to existing Plenty of Fish
users; it will require users to pay.
When Frind created Plenty
of Fish in 2003, he was tired of seeing faceless dating corporations
prey on individuals who were simply looking for love. His mission was
to establish a free online dating site that put the customer before the
company. In just over 5 years, Plenty of Fish has already earned itself
a reputation as one of the most popular dating sites on the web, with a
Top Ten ranking in Canada, the US and the UK. All this time, Frind has
decided to keep his site free, vowing to make a difference for others
rather than a profit for himself.
However, Frind has recently
discovered that he’s losing out on huge profits and has decided to cash
in. Recently, he mentioned that since Plenty of Fish linked users to
competitor sites, he was giving up millions of dollars in possible
revenue. He decided that the only option was to obtain a paid dating
site or make his own. The result of his decision may now be Frind’s
merger with or buyout of OnlineDating.org.
