Search engines critical for women selecting UK dating sites
Written by Thomas John Behe   
Thursday, 23 February 2006
Women still prefer to use Google to find online personal services, but more now ask friends for recommendations.

 

Results from a detailed research report conducted by dating firm www.DatingDonut.com show that search engine optimization and promotion is proving the most effective method in attracting women to dating sites.   The survey found that over a half of single females interested in online dating will use a search engines to choose their site versus clicking through banner ads, responding to an email or even advice from friends. 
Search Engine – 53%
Email – 28%
Banner Ad – 23%
Word of Mouth – 19%
Website Link – 16%
Website Banner – 9%
SMS Text – 7%
MMS – 3%
And although many online dating sites have aggressively increased their amount of search word optimization and email and banner advertising, the survey findings show that nearly 1/5 of women now rely on recommendations from friends, suggesting more females are openly discussing their use of dating sites in 2006.
Conducted in January, the survey examines the online preferences, user experience and purchasing behavior of several hundred women interested in dating services in the UK.  For more information about the survey or Dating Donut, please contact Rick Madden, Business Development Director at PNC Telecom on 08700 707050
