People are always searching for love and have found many ways to get around the traditional methods of dating and meeting to create lasting and successful relationships. Some of these methods include speed dating, blind dates, and video personal ads. These methods have always been in regard to the current technological advances at the time. Since the origination of the internet, people have used it as a means of communication and meeting. This started with the creation of online chat-rooms, online personal ads similar to those in newspapers and print mediums, and most recently online dating/matching websites. As technology continues to evolve so does the way online daters can meet which has changed and will continue to change the way people think/go about dating well into the future. DatePsu.com is a free student based Internet-dating and meeting website that will be targeted and exclusively for the students within the Penn state Community. The target market is Penn State students with an @psu.edu email addresses within the age range of 18-25. The current (Fall 2010) total enrollment at Penn State (all campuses) is 87,309, of which 77,179 are enrolled as undergraduate students. At University Park (Main Campus) alone, there are 44,817 students, of which 38,594 are enrolled as undergraduates. Going forward Penn State expects to grow either consistently with historical averages or at an accelerated pace. With a constantly changing (every four years) but steadily increasing market size which makes Penn State an ideal market of both size and characteristics. In order to register for the website and its services one must possess a psu.edu email address. Students will be able to post a profile with specific personal information geared towards dating and getting the attention of the opposite sex. Students will also be able to fill out a questionnaire, which will be used to create student matches based upon similarities. Users can only view profiles of other users if they with a minimum threshold of compatibility. Research was conducted to get a better sense of the target market and how to win over the college student since no major or legitimate localized college dating services exist. Also, another goal of the survey was finding out where students found information and which groups of people were influential to them in terms of learning about new services and products around campus. Penn State students of all ages were given two surveys, approximately 30 questions in length. The survey collected was only given online, through SurveyMonkey.com. Each survey was completed by over 280 students, distributed completely through Facebook. While there is not a clear lack of demand for a strictly online dating community at Penn State, it appears clear that most students do not feel that a whole website devoted to such a service is necessary. Penn State students find it easy to meet people in social and academic situations. Socially, there is definitely a demand for a connection and party website or Facebook Application extension in the local area with localized marketing, connecting similar people.

  • MASTER THESIS an Analysis of the Online Dating Industry and How
    MASTER THESIS An Analysis of the Online Dating Industry and How Startups Can Compete Copenhagen Business School 2015 MSc in Business Administration and Information Systems Martin Wendel ______________________________ ______________ Emil Maltesen Frandsen ______________________________ ______________ Supervisor: Ioanna Constantiou Number of pages: 119 Number of characters: 218.031 Date of submission: June 2, 2015 ABSTRACT Many new dating sites are started each year but few become a success. This paper provides an analysis, evaluation and recommendations for startups seeking to enter and compete the online dating industry. Methods of analysis include an industry analysis of the general online dating industry, further investigation of 35 of the major dating sites as well as five in-depth case studies. The cases studied were Match, PlentyofFish, Ashley Madison, Tinder and the Dating Ring. A ranking of the most popular dating sites is found in the appendix. We found that each dating site had individual and unique concepts as well as a particular market focus. This led us to identify that each site could be placed in a quadrant within a framework we developed. The X-axis is the market focus: (X1) Mainstream or (X2) Niche and the Y-axis is the concept differentiation (Y1) Generic or (Y2) Unique. While individual dating sites had different strategies for creating their user base as well as maintaining it, certain properties would match each other in relation to the sites in their quadrant. Reputation was found to be extremely important and word of mouth, both positive and negative, helped each of the cases studied grow. The biggest differentiator in their strategy was the time in which they launched.

  • Eharmony Case Analysis Written By
    eHarmony Case Analysis Written by: Fabiana Ayala John Morales Li Lai Liang-Yun Cheng Table of Contents: I. Executive Summary II. Problem III. SWOT Analysis IV. Strategy V. Alternatives and Recommendations VI. Conclusion I. Executive Summary EHarmony, founded by Dr. Neil Clark Warren and Greg Forgatch in 1998, has become one of the main online dating sites that helps singles in their search for long-term and serious relationships. Today, with over 20 million registered users, eHarmony currently owns 13.9% of the online dating market share. However, the company faces threats from its competitors—Match.com, Spark Networks, Plenty of Fish—who provide similar or slightly lower quality services at a lower price. With about 16% of US singles looking for a romantic partner and the decreasing marriage rate, eHarmony needs to address its current problems and to reposition the company for long-term success. The following analysis examines the online dating industry, eHarmony’s current problems, the company’s strengths and weaknesses, potential opportunities and threats, and strategic position. This report provides alternatives and recommendations which the company can adapt to re-position itself in order to attract more subscribers and generate more revenue. ll. Problem: Other internet dating sites are doing better than eHarmony: Match.com and Spark Networks are all more popular than eHarmony. Although eHarmony is doing better than many other services, the company still has much room for improvement. EHarmony has the second largest amount of subscribers and is currently trailing Match.com by nine million subcribers. This is a significant margin when considering that eHarmony only has twenty million subscribers.
