Member Query of the week 

We have had a lot of members asking us for advice on how to make the most out of their profiles this past week, with Christmas just around the corner our members are searching to find that special person to spend the festive season with so below is the advice we have been giving them:

1) We advise that members update their profile as often as possible (i.e photos and diary entries) This will mean that other members are drawn to their profile as they will have new photos or diary entries to view.

2) Write as much about yourself and what you are looking for in your personal profile. A lot of members do not know what to write when it comes to themselves, and so we do advise for those members on the general network to use the profile coach which will ask a series of questions before creating your profile text.

3) As a way of standing out from other profiles, we encourage our members to send gifts to other members, If you would like to do this however you will need to purchase credits which are a type of online currency, but this is a great way to break the ice

Good customer experience feedback for you!

Here are 2 quotes for you to look at that your Customer Support Team has received this week.

We received a message from Diane, Single50s.co.uk
Diane: “I have to say your support section and response time is absolutely excellent. I could not have wished for better help in using this site and even the site is extremely good. Well set out and easy to use. And I do thank you for making my introduction to Internet dating so good. Diane”

And we have another message to share from Lance, FriendsOfYours.com
Lance: “I’m delighted to tell you that I have found a smashing Yorkshire lass on this site. We’re in a strong relationship and she has decided to come and live with me in Derby. She is Christine from West Yorkshire. We’ll be writing a paragraph in your Success Stories section soon. We would never have met but for your site, thank you so much. So you can revert me back to basic membership. Thanks

We heard today that Jamie Oliver is to launch a dating service to leverage his brand – we’re not sure if this is to be a general dating site or whether it is focused on the oap seniors dating experience. We read this and also the latest dating headlines about who Rihanna is dating and whether Natalie Imbruglia is dating Jay Kay or not.

Our observation is that the perception the media presents is one of the online dating being all about younger people – these are where all the headlines are focused. Given that oaps/ pensioners/ seniors dating are the fastest growing online segment, it seems unfair that the perception is all about the younger market.

If you have some online experiences and views, we’d love to hear them and publish them here at the Senior Dating blog – just submit your comments and views here and we’d love to share them.
