Social Networking & Dating sites

Is it just me or are there millions of these lately?
Half the advertising I see is "meet a girl in your area". Seriously, how can they make money? There's thousands of dating sites.
I see no point in creating one, even with loads of advertising the already established sites will succeed.
And the worst thing about these social networking sites and dating sites is that they all use the same downloadable system.
To put it in a welsh way "it does my nut in".

Might just be me that gets annoyed by them

I saw the other week that some neterprising person was selling dating site templates on ebay...
If people didn't use them then they wouldn't exist, what gets my goat is that they are creeping into other networking sites, i.e facebook. |

People nowadays want to make quick money and they see weba very easy source for that. But these fools don't know that they would hardly make some money if they are copying somebody else's idea, esp. if there are already established giants to compete with. To succeed, you have be UNIQUE. You can't copy success, got to work it out your way! I always say, '"trendsetters are viable, trend-followers are not!"
And this "entrepreneurship" bug is very pesky. Once it bites, it will drain most of your resources until you have no more to spend. Most of such 'newbie' enterprises are fooled by other people such as advertising media, agents, etc who show them BIG PICTURE and run with all your money! I would say, if you have nothing unique to offer as an entrepreneur, better do that 9 - 5 job. Atleast you won't leave in some uncertainity and mental stress! |
