There are many ways to make money online on sites like privateonlinedating. You can blog for a living. You can promote links. You can even sell e-books. In fact, the only limit to your ability to make money online is the level of your intelligence and the extent of your imagination.

With that said, among the biggest moneymakers when it comes to online revenue generation are free online dating websites. It’s very easy to see why people make money off this type of website. People have since time immemorial been looking to get laid. If you add the word “free” to that experience, you can see why so many people are excited about free online dating websites.

Well, if you’re thinking of putting up such a website, you might want to slow down. You have to remember that successful websites of this type share certain common ingredients. If you don’t pay attention to these common features, then chances are your venture will fail.

Solid community

I’ve visited many free online dating websites. The ones that are actually making money share one common feature: they all have a solid community. The solid community may consist of maybe 50 or 100 or even 200 people. What matters more than their number is that these people form a very vocal and active fraction of the total community.

Make no mistake about it, dating websites will only become solid if people from the outside think that they are active. The more you nurture a solid community, one that is constantly going back day after day and engaging in all sorts of activities, you increase the likelihood that you will attract more members. The more members you attract, the more successful your free online dating website becomes. It really is that simple.

Low turnover mixed with steady user growth

One big danger with this type of websites is high turnover. You don’t want to have a website where people get motivated to create profiles and then they leave. In many cases, they just create a profile and they never check out the website. This happens all the time. You have to put in place certain features that would discourage people from creating profiles and then simply moving on.

You also have to focus on growing your user base. The best way to do this, of course, is to develop a solid community. If people notice that you have a high turnover and your user base is not really growing, they don’t have any incentives to join your website.
