Commenting on our re-launched site, World Dating Partners’ founder and CEO, Robert Fathers, said

“We are absolutely delighted with the new website.

It reflects our professionalism and strategic drive, and reinforces our position as the world’s leading provider of dating software.”

“In re-launching the site we have achieved our primary goal of aligning its quality and design with our leading-edge software. However, our aim was also to update its content and functionality to exceed the expectations of both our clients and the dating industry as a whole, and it is abundantly clear that we have more than accomplished this.”

We operate major portals in the following lucrative markets: Dating, Indian Matrimonial, Gay Dating and Adult Personals. So, if for example you are currently operating a Dating site, you could also set up an Adult Personals, Gay Dating or Indian Matrimonial template site for free and promote it via your existing website.

As an extra incentive we will pay you an additional 10% on top of your existing commission for every member that signs up for a new service in the first month!

To take advantage of this incredibly simple but effective promotional tool, just log into your Business Control Centre to create your additional site and follow the instructions.

And as always, if you need any help or have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact your dedicated account manager.
Double Your Revenues with our Double Opt-in Technology

A major new announcement about a major new innovation from World Dating Partners that can benefit you!

Our new double opt-in technology makes it possible for any website owner to double their earnings potential by providing highly targeted dating services to an existing client base!

How It Works

Double opt-in can be incorporated into the registration page of any existing web form, and can be seamlessly integrated with any existing brand.

For example, an existing website targeted at a single parent audience can integrate with an existing dating website for the single parent community, providing the opportunity sell two different services to the same client base.

When the website user opts-in to receive offers and/or information, the double opt-in technology provides a further option to receive offers to benefit from another website that is highly relevant to them.

Data is automatically sent to the World Dating Partners database via a seamless URL transfer, and the user instantly becomes a ‘free’ member of the dating service. The website owner receives a lifetime split of any revenue generated as soon as the user becomes a ‘paying’ member of the dating service.

This new feature creates countless opportunities. To find out more about how it could benefit you, speak to your dedicated account manager about setting it up today! Or alternatively contact Daniel Vincent for more information: daniel@worlddatingpartners.com

Testimonials and Success Stories

Do you have an interesting story to tell about how you achieved success by operating one of our sites, possibly in an unusual or interesting way? Do you want to tell us about how marvellous we are and how you made your fortune by being part of our network? Testimonials are a great way to help potential new partners gain a really good insight into what we do, so please send us your success stories today!

Those we publish will include your name and a link to your sites, giving you more free exposure, so please drop me a line at d.vincent@worlddatingpartners.com. Don’t forget to include information such as why you joined us, any stories you may have, your experience of working with us and anything else you think would be interesting!

Massive Success for WDP at Two Major International Exhibitions…

As you know, we attended 2 major international exhibitions in January and February.

Robert Fathers
President
World Dating Partners

Comprising over twenty one million members, the new database is larger than the entire population of Australia and has been created between Relationship Exchange and World Dating Partners.

Under the terms of the agreement, Relationship Exchange, owned by Think Partnership, will move all its partner websites onto World Dating Partners’ technology platform. It will also merge its database of over fourteen million members into World Dating Partners. The joint database will now top twenty one million members and will be available in eleven countries.

World Dating Partners has made a multi-million dollar investment in its IT over several years, which now comprises over thirty servers running Oracle RAC software, an enterprise-class IT system more commonly found in major corporations.

Freed from the constraints of managing its ‘back-office’, Relationship Exchange now plans to accelerate its growth and, according to its President, Brady Whittingham, expects to grow exponentially in the next few years.

He said, “We’ll focus our attention on helping our affiliates grow their businesses, safe in the knowledge that we’ve, together with World Dating Partners, created one of the largest dating databases of its kind in the world, containing the world’s most sophisticated compatibility matching system.”

Robert Fathers said, “This agreement signals our intent to continue expanding our business. We believe we’re firmly established as the number one dating service provider but intend to continue to broaden and deepen our service portfolio. We will be making a number of announcements in the next twelve months that will bear this out.”

Happy New Year!

First and foremost, before we launch into all of our news, we want to take this opportunity to wish you an (albeit belated) happy, healthy and prosperous 2008. Based on all of the fantastic new features, portals and enhancements that we plan to launch over the next few weeks and months, we can already see 2008 developing into one of the best years ever for our partners…

Massive News!

We are very excited to announce that Relationship Exchange, one of the largest and most successful dating networks in the USA, are re-launching on our platform. This increases our database of members to over 21 million registered profiles – which is larger than the entire population of Australia, making it one of the largest databases of its kind in the world! This is, of course, fantastic news for you in promoting your sites, particularly for the US market, and fantastic news for your members.

In a recent interview, our President and Founder, Robert Fathers, said “By pooling our databases we can now offer all our members an unparalleled choice of potential ’soul-mates’, as well as a broader range of services. This agreement signals our intent to continue expanding our business. We believe we’re firmly established as the world’s No.1 dating service provider, but will continue to broaden and deepen our service portfolio, and will be making a number of announcements in the next twelve months that will bear this out.”
