Article Subject: Canadian online dating market - Part 3

Dr. Dato’s Brief:

Part 1, Part 2, Part 4, Part 5

Another dating site of Canadian origin is date.com which in recent times has not been as aggressive in it’s marketing as it used to be a few years ago.

I did conduct a google search for this and when you type ‘date.com news’ into the google search bar, there was little information as to the company’s recent activities or press releases. However, I did see a sponsored listing of the site on google’s search page which could potentially mean they are still active in the business or have an account with google and simply letting it expire.

The information that I gathered from their own page in the ‘About Us’ section is a very old entry by the Director of Marketing posted back in 2006.

Unfortunately nothing to report on this dating site other than it still has good rankings according to alexa; Alexa Traffic Rank: 26,569 United States Traffic Rank in US: 10,015. My feeling is that the business is just winding down which is unfortunate because they were once a major player in the online dating market scene.

**Update - Date.com is operated by Avalanche LLC based out of Miami Beach, FL 33139 USA.

could date.com be winding down judging by its lack of newsworthy stories?
