Prizes to top Affiliates

Every month we are going to be giving bonuses to our top affiliates.

For the month of April the partner who brings in the most UK members will get a 10% bonus on new sales. We will announce winner next month once we have verified all new members. Get promoting today because based on previous months its going to be a close run thing.

Video Chat

Video and audio chat will be going live in the next few days. Promote this to your members, its a feature very few sites have, only gold members can use it so will be a great way of getting more subscribers. Cam to cam anyone!?

Better registration pages are also being created, to further optimise sign ups across the whole system.

We have also made some changes to the XML sitemap generation. These have been restructured in a more optimised manner to help with Search Egines.

Season Greetings from World Dating Partners.

We would like to announce the launch of yet another new portal - Indian dating shaadimatchmaker.com

You will be able to create sites based around this portal logic and with separate data base, which is culturally sensitive and will make an ideal Niche for many countries, with potential to cross sell with your other sites

We also introduced new currencies. By doing this we can also pay you in multi currency so that you do not lose on currency conversion rates

Australian Dollar, New Zealand dollar and Swiss frank have now been added which makes a great opportunity for promoting sites in these countries which is an area that is non-competitive, Niches again are an excellent way to go.

At the moment World-Dating-Partners operates with 5 currencies GBP, USD, EURO, NZD (New Zealand Dollars), AUD (Australian Dollars), CHF (Swiss Francs) Members always prefer to pay in their own currency that produces a higher conversion rate.

We have also upgraded within the search area for members to find videos as well as voice messages. Members are becoming more and more confident in uploading these on Dating and Adult Dating systems there are now thousands of home videos for them to see. Its an add-on that we created to help conversions with a link on your front pages to a video sample page, a great temptation for members, which all goes towards a better conversion.

Out team is working hard to finish Banner program. Watch out for this as its a kill-all program with lots of nuts and bolts, this will be finished at the beginning of January.

The Gay Portal is going live around the beginning of January as well, lookout for this one, a great market and yet another site to cross sell to add to your arsenal.

Probably one of the most interesting projects we are now working on is our Free Dating Site Portals. Working in a similar way to “Plenty of fish” so you can earn your money from both AdSense, and other forms of advertising. We’ll have an update on this early in 2007.

Just to let you know as well - text messaging is being integrated at the moment - this will be in the very early part of next year, unlike other dating sites, we intend to share this bounty with our partners as well to increase your overall revenue.

For the time being anyway those of you a very happy New Year and wish that you will prosper even more in 2007

Welcome to our new weekly News and Updates Newsletter, to keep you informed on important information and news as a World Dating Partners Affiliate.
Don’t miss out on an easy way to increase your revenue by 30%

Did you know that 40 % of the members join both adult and dating sites and pay for two sites simultaneously? Do not miss out on this opportunity and create either a dating site or an adult dating site now.
You can do this either one or all three ways:

1. Simple just add a Pop-under to your front page which has a link to you other site. (Will be available in two weeks time)
2. Add a text or a banner to your my crowd page (To do this just contact us with you text) and we’ll ad it for you. (Will be available in two weeks time)
3. Add a banner to the bottom of your front page which you can add yourself in your management centre.
Affiliate administration changes:

Sales reports are available now in three different currencies to help make you independent from conversion rates. Add your multi-currency accounts information and get paid the most convenient way.
New Languages

Now you can create a new German site and promote this in Germany or you can add German as a new language to you existing sites.

German is available for you to add now.
Launch of the new Windows Chat programs - Chatterbox and Playmates

After a year of development, members will now have the opportunity of downloading our new programs that sit in the task bar, like MSN and work independently from the site.

Later we will be adding partner id’s to these so that you can independently promote this as part of your arsenal of products to sell.
Lastly - A great idea for us ALL - Please join in with our marketing plan

We currently have a marketing document of various successful marketing techniques that partners have used in the past and we want all of you to have a copy. So instead of posting this on the site, we ask for you to send an email to dave@singles.ltd.uk to qualify receiving this document you must add in your email one of your Best techniques for marketing, with some ideas and tips.

The idea behind is when we have all the information from partners, we will then add a page for all partners to view a super-list of marketing ideas that we can all benefit from.
Kind Regards
World-Dating-Partners support team

Our System and services expand virtually every week now with new applications and development, our end game is to give you as much as we can to help you optimise your conversion rates by giving you the tools and new technology to help you do this.

More recently we have added Google XML SiteMaps which I hope you will make the most of, by submitting these to Google’s new submission service, it will really help you with a Google submission, Google takes notice of you by using these — you can read and start submitting them here http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/docs/en/about.html — while your there try adding a siteMap to your site, this really looks good from Google’s standpoint

Also our web directory of dating sites is ranked in the top 15 worldwide and will help you achieve more traffic at singles-index.com please register if you can and add a link, you are assured of some good visitors from here. It’s free as well, as partners you don’t have to reciprocate a link, but would be appreciated if you can.

Did you know that more and more partners are making profits through Google AdWords? We currently have some partners spending as much as 1.5 million USD a year. There is good reason for this as you can clearly calculate profits. You don’t have to spend much initially to do this. Our system is ideal for this, by creating a niche market either by interest or geographical location you will have to pay less for advertising, because the competition isn’t so fierce and the conversion rates are extremely high for targeted and specialized web sites. Why not create many niche sites and see how successful this can be.

You can find out more and try Here https://adwords.google.com/select

By the way do you realize that your marketing is not restricted to the Internet?

Some of our biggest partners are Radio stations, charities, TV, or any other company that may have a database. For this we are also setting up a portal system for people who want to approach larger companies and act as representatives of WDP without having to have a dating site. If you have an interest in this, please write back and we can discuss and help you with some great business ideas.

IS THERE ANYONE WHO HAS A BACKGROUND WITHIN THE RADIO INDUSTRY IN THE UK — IF SO WE WOULD LIKE TO HERE FROM YOU, WE NEED YOUR HELP?

Our Adult Contact system, like www.adultcrowd.com Web sites have been a great success, with high customer retention as well as a great conversion rates should be a great target for you to promote. You can do this by simply creating a new Adult Web site for yourself, for those of you with experience in the adult market - this system is surprisingly uncompetitive. Give it a go.

In the news more recently World Dating Partners were the sponsors of iDate2006.com The International Dating Conference. It was a tremendous success for us, We are following this up as exhibitors at the largest Adult show in August at Internext http://www.internext-expo.com in Miami. Pop over and see us. If you are going, contact us before hand so we can make arrangements to meet you personally and buy you a beer.

BY THE WAY — Have you seen our Great Video, a great overview of what we do, we have this available on CD if you wish a copy, or Download from WDP site its 45Mb but well worth it http://www.worlddatingpartners.com/download/presentation.zip

While you are there the comparison chart for other affiliate programs is available, take a look to see what’s on offer, make your own judgments on the best programs. http://www.worlddatingpartners.com/download/comparison_chart-LA.pdf

Our final tip for now is do you use Google blogs? It’s a great way to advertise your site and an even better way to attract traffic. Good advice on this is to do this every 3-4 weeks, don’t flood the system with too many, make good presentations that work well otherwise people don’t take so much notice, write one once in a while and regularly and you’ll win the day.

On our current list of priorities for development are:
1/ Making your administration easier to use with more accurate data
2/ Sending automated statistic, demographic and financial reports directly to your email
3/ Partner debit cards - to make your payments easier
4/ Completion of our Graphic, flash system for IP Geo-Targeted Banners

For now I wish you all the best of luck in your promotion, please remember we are always around for advice and help, if you have any questions.

Best wishes
