I rather think this idea would be better deployed in an existing social environment. (Facebook, MySpace, Hi5, etc.)
I'm not sure how much people would trust a NEW dating site, especially with all the information out there about fake profiles -- how will you gain enough organic traffic not to turn people off with fake profiles? And if you use fake profiles, then it's self-defeating, and although monetization should be easily achievable, won't help people find a potential partner.
Why not a dating application that doesn't intrude in people's lives?
- derefr 18y agoPerhaps, instead of specific people meeting specific people, people create a large database of "characters" (profiles of sorts), and then you select a few and rate yourself on how well you match each of them. You then select a few "characters" you like and rate those, and you are matched with people who are rated highly at being like those characters. Tagline: You can meet a person, but you're looking for an ideal. Why not admit it? (Of course, the ideals could become simplified, one-word-ified and adjectivized, and become tags. But the extensible system is more interesting in that it allows you to select a batch of tags at once. A character could still exist in the tag system, as a set of tags with weightings.)
