One of the issues I had with sites like Match or okCupid was gender bias. Men get few messages from women and women get overwhelmed with the messages from men. My solution to this was to add a moderator (the public) to recommend and filter potential matches and who you can message.
- Goladus 15y agoInteresting idea, but it's highly unlikely that people will get involved with a dating site when registration is a requirement for even seeing the site.
- true_religion 15y agoMost "adult" dating sites are like that---populating their splash pages and galleries with fake profiles, and only allowing you to see the real thing after registration. Also, marriage oriented or dating sites for single ethnic groups often do the same (or have no gallery at all till registration).
- Goladus 15y agoIn the case of ethnic and religious sites, a fairly promising and probably reasonably accurate description is given. In the case of adult sites, that's just fraudulent and flat out lying to people can be an effective way to get at least some registrations.
