4ppl is a 100% free dating site. Searching Google for “free dating”, “free dating site” and similar phrases will always return 4ppl among top results. Add that 4ppl looks better and has more features than most or all free dating sites that are more popular at the moment. Thus, I think 4ppl has great potential and within a matter of days we’ll be changing it to maximize the outcome.
I’ve been thinking about factors that create superb sites with exponential growth, and I think I know the magic formula. If you ask me, I’d say “No, it’s not ‘Ugly sells’ bs”, “No, it’s not about ‘paradigm shift’ hype” and “No it’s not about ‘viral marketing’ musings” - in fact there’s MUCH less mystery. I am shutting up for now, since I am yet to prove my guess - if things go the way I expect, I will most certainly share my findings.
Oh, and this - free dating sites are not really free as they claim (Including POF, OKCupid and alikes) - they make users pay by pulling ads. Think of them as of a traffic booth that doesn’t charge drivers, but cuts revenue from Gas stations, cafes and shops along the way. 4ppl is absolutely free. No Ads. Hear that?
Make Meaning Or Die
Does this tie into Shark or Dolphin scripts? If this is a shared resource like drupal.org is this is a huge breakthrough. When is shark coming online?
We hope to launch 4ppl based on Shark next week. After that everything will depend on testing results.
