		<description>Hi guys. Dating isn't on decline at all! 
Some sites are better than other, simple.
For example try to surf on http://www.qmpeople.com and you will fine that not onoy paid sites can offer good contents for users.</description>

		<description>Even on free dating sites like Plenty of Fish, the e-dating experience is pretty bad. Why would they pay money to have bad dating when it's for free? There are more frustrations and disappointments than success stories. Given that kind of odds and some time wasting experiences, many people on date sites probably no longer care? That could be a cause of declining dating?</description>

		<description>What's my association with dating industry? Not too much... Other than the fact that I am running a free dating site as well: - www.onelovenet.com -. It was only launched in December 2006, although I had everything prepared in 2003. Even a domain name (www.1love4u.info) which was never used...
But, at that time I had other priorities and postponed this project. I was busy with my B2B Network.

Since I launched the site, I saw a constant increase in search engine traffic, well, this is my fault as well... :) I spent time and money promoting it, but it looks like the traffic is growing, the number of members is growing and soon, we will reach the critical mass... hopefully. :)</description>

		<description>Andrew, in my opinion this industry is not declining.
The reason of the name search decline is because new players enter the market and even plentyoffish, the only free datimng site a while ago, has a strong competition.
Just search for: find singles free or free dating site and you will see what I mean.

More players = Less Searches / player but the overall search on dating sites is definitely higher than it was a year ago.</description>
