			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>          Creating a dating website is a long and tedious process. There is so much to do and no one to help you make the right decisions for you. I<img border="0" vspace="5" align="right" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-lift.jpg" hspace="5" height="158" style="width: 122px; height: 136px" /> talked a little before about the different decisions you&#8217;ll be facing and that they have to be made one way or another before you are able to go on with your project. I also talked about finding the right web design company for you; about all the things that you should be looking for in a web design company as far as quality and price when it comes to your dating website. Another thing to think about is how much time and effort you need to put into maintaining your members. By keeping them happy, in return you&#8217;ll be happy.</p>
<p>          There is something more to this though. Yes, I realize that you&#8217;ve done tons of work already, so what&#8217;s a little more? After your dating website has been built there is search engine optimization that needs to be done. Search engine <img border="0" vspace="5" align="left" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-hide.jpg" hspace="5" height="156" />optimization may sound scary and for the people doing it, it is. All you need to know about it is that search engine optimization is that it&#8217;s the way people are going to find you when searching on the major engines such as Google or Yahoo. If you don&#8217;t have any SEO done your site will be very difficult to find for people searching for a dating website.  </p>
<p>          Although it is usually another investment, sometimes you can find a web design company that will do some SEO<img border="0" vspace="5" align="right" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-trophy.jpg" hspace="5" height="261" style="width: 96px; height: 183px" /> work for free. This is a great deal because a lot of people charge a lot of money for SEO work to be done. Since there are companies out there that spend a ton of money on SEO you can&#8217;t realistically expect to be #1 on the Google search page; especially if people are using a broad term like &#8220;dating websites&#8221;. You can however get higher in the ranks for your specific terms, for example if your a dating website based in Chicago then one of your terms would be Chicago Dating Website or something along those lines. It&#8217;s better to be in the search results at all then to forget about doing SEO and think that you can make it without.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>          When deciding to create a dating website there is a lot to be aware of. You need to know how you want your website to look and feel. <img border="0" vspace="5" align="right" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-juggling.jpg" hspace="5" height="125" />You should also make sure that you are hiring a good web design company that will take care of all your needs. There are so many different companies out there that it sometimes makes it hard to choose. Take you time and make sure you find the right one for you. Dating websites are an investment, no questions asked. There is going to be a lot of money involved when deciding to partake in a dating website.</p>
<p>          There are two aspects of the investment that you should think about. One being that you are investing money into <img border="0" vspace="5" align="left" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-feed.jpg" hspace="5" height="226" style="width: 95px; height: 178px" />the site itself, for it to be built. You should expect to spend a bit of money on a dating website because there is a lot that goes into it. Having your dating website done cheaper is always going to be an option. It&#8217;s not a good option because normally what a company&#8217;s idea of a great looking website and a freelancer&#8217;s idea of it are usually two different things. Trying to save money at this point will bite you in the end when people feel like your site is not very good quality and therefore not very reputable.</p>
<p>          The other aspect of this that you have to think about is that you are actually investing in someone else. Maybe not with <img border="0" vspace="5" align="right" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-return.jpg" hspace="5" height="150" style="width: 134px; height: 137px" />money per say, but with time and work. You need to be able to have that time to put in the work so that the members using your site will be pleased with their service and their level of results. You do this because when it turns out the benefits flow in for you. Word of mouth tells people your dating website works and you see an increase in members and in turn and increase in profit. Make sure that you have the time and patience to deal with all the responsibility of having a dating website.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>          When thinking about having a dating website designed I talked before about how many different decisions there are involved in the <img border="0" vspace="5" align="right" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-fit.jpg" hspace="5" height="159" />process. You should think about what type of dating website you are going to be, and where you&#8217;re going to serve people. You should also be choosy with your web design company. You want to look professional and like a high quality organization. This is because you are leading people to believe that you are capable of helping them get matched up with people who are potentially good fits for them. By having a dating website you&#8217;re making people think that they can put their love life in your hands. This is a big deal to a lot of people. Most people would feel more comfortable with a dating website if it looked like it was designed well and if it looks reputable.</p>
<p>          When deciding on who will be your web designer you should have a couple things ready before going into the <img border="0" vspace="5" align="left" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-notes.png" hspace="5" height="100" />process. You should first go through other dating web sites and look at what you like and don&#8217;t like. Take down some notes about what functions you would like to have on your dating website. Take a look at the actual design of these other sites and also take notes on what you like and dislike. Things like color and layout will be important to have when looking for a web designer to do your dating website. Most web design companies will help you along with these decisions if you don&#8217;t have any notes or any suggestions. This is all good and fine, but I would suggest bringing something to the table, it will help you become the actual one in charge of the project and you&#8217;ll know what you&#8217;re getting and if all goes well, you&#8217;ll know that you&#8217;re going to love your website.</p>
<p>          By looking at the larger dating websites you can get a good feel of what people are comfortable with. You should stay along those lines <img border="0" vspace="5" align="right" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-whisper.jpg" hspace="5" height="113" />while still making the website your own. Trying to be fresh and have new ideas for your website is great; just don&#8217;t go overboard with it. Try to take suggestions from your web design company to heart and actually think about what they are telling you. They have a lot of experience in the field and it would benefit you to have some inside advice on what you should be doing with your dating website.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>          We talked about how dating website is a big responsibility. There are a lot of things that you have to worry about when having a dating<img border="0" vspace="5" align="right" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-decisions.jpg" hspace="5" height="116" /> website built. There are a lot of decisions that have to be made before you can even think about having a dating website. It important to get all of the following questions out of the way before the site starts to be built.</p>
<p>          There are multiple types of dating websites that specialize in a whole load of different areas. You should decide if your website is going to be specialized or broad. Some of the different areas that I&#8217;m talking about are; sex preference, location, age, etc. Is your website going to be purely for men to find women and vice versa or are you going to have your <img border="0" vspace="5" align="left" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-oldyoung.jpg" hspace="5" height="100" />dating website made so that it can be used by anyone. The same thing goes for age. Most dating websites don&#8217;t specify by age, but a few do. You need to decide if you want your dating website to pertain to singles of all ages or a specific group.</p>
<p>          The last example I gave was location. This is actually one of your most important decisions. You need to figure out if your going to be only available to people from a certain city or state, or available to the whole nation. Going with the option to have your dating website available to people in the whole nation instead of just a certain city or state is going to mean a lot more people using the site. This sounds good because it means that you&#8217;ll be getting paid more for the memberships but you&#8217;ll also have a whole slew <img border="0" vspace="5" align="right" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-city.jpg" hspace="5" height="86" />of people to take care of and make sure that they get matched up with the right people who are in their area and all that. It&#8217;s definitely a bigger job than a start out dating website could probably handle. I would suggest starting out in a city or state and then moving your way up when you think you can handle more people. There may be a time when you have to hire people to manage all the extra work that you won&#8217;t be able to as one person. Try and think smart and your dating website will go far.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>          Dating web design is something that is used quite frequently. There are some major dating websites are on the internet these days and <img border="0" vspace="5" align="right" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-biglittle.jpg" hspace="5" height="206" style="width: 116px; height: 166px" />there are millions of people that use these sites. There are also many smaller ones that have the same functions but just aren&#8217;t built up like the others. Building a dating website is a complicated task to undertake. There is a lot that going into the programming of a dating website. If you think about it, all the members need profiles, they need to ability to be able to message other people, they need to be able to search through profiles, etc.</p>
<p>         There are a lot of different kinds of people that use dating websites. There are the people who have too much on their plate and don&#8217;t have the time to spend out on the town looking for that special someone. There are also those who just can&#8217;t <img border="0" vspace="5" align="left" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-barscene.jpg" hspace="5" height="121" />stand the whole bar scene, I know because I&#8217;m one of them. I don&#8217;t like it and I don&#8217;t feel like it&#8217;s a good way to meet someone serious. These people who will end up using your website are going to be depending on it to find them someone whom they have something in common with. Although there is a lot of money to be made in a dating website, there is also a lot of responsibility that comes along with it. You have to treat this business with a great seriousness.<img border="0" vspace="5" align="right" width="150" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/2008/01/dating-web-design-dating.jpg" hspace="5" height="144" /></p>
<p>          Don&#8217;t try and dupe your customers by any type of falseness. Do what your supposed to otherwise your website will become unused by anyone. People will be very disappointed with the quality of services that you provide and eventually your site will be of no use to you or anyone. Having a dating website is like owning a little business, there is a lot of money to be made if you treat your customers well and with respect and dignity.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">The decision on what type of dating website you want to build can be the hardest choice you have to make throughout this whole project. Either you develop a local dating website that includes the major city and the burbs of your area, or you put up a national dating website. Both types of websites have their pros and cons.<img vspace="5" align="right" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20decide.jpg" hspace="5" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">Take a national dating website. What can they offer that the local market can not? Well for one the site is functioning on a grander scale then a local, so it is most likely going to cost more money to develop nationally. Since money is always an issue, it is something you may want to deeply consider before moving ahead with. The national dating website while costing a little more will draw in more customers, because you are not limiting yourself to a specific region. This means more money for you. Whether you are charging people to put up their profile or it is a free site pumped full of ads, the more people you allow in the more money they will give or make you. So from the get go a national dating website may cost a few extra bucks to start up, but in the end it should pay for itself with all the traffic you will be getting.<img vspace="5" align="left" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20national.jpg" hspace="5" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">So local or regional dating websites may not be functioning on the same scale as the big national website, but you are probably going to save some money. But the flip side of that coin is that since you are limiting your area you might not bring in as many singles as the big national dating website. But you have to consider that fact that you have the advantage of knowing the smaller area you are in. This would make it much easier for you to set up events in your area for the singles on your website. This will make you more exposed in your area and it will make other singles in your area realize what they might be missing out on. Also since you have the advantage of knowing the area, your ads can be for local restaurants, bars, and clubs. This will bring in even more cash for you, and make it a little more worthwhile.<img vspace="5" align="right" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20local.jpg" hspace="5" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">So it seems that both types of dating websites have their strong points and weeks points. Another option could be to start out in a certain city and expand your website to a more national level as the need grows. It would be awesome to see your dating website grow from a few hundred members to millions all over the country. </span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">We all have heard the stories of the couple that meet over the web in a chat room, or on a dating website. They fell in love at first </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">IM</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">. Don&#8217;t stories like that make you sick? I </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">prefer</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> the stories where the girl meets the boy and </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">the </span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">boy ends up being some kind of stalker that terrorizes the girl and all her attractive friends. Now that is a story I can get into! But honestly there are some pretty freaky dating website horror stories.</span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> It</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> would be </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">horrible if</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> a customer of yours was harmed </span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">by someone they meet on </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">the site</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">.</span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> But</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> are there ways to protect your dating website from these psychos?<img vspace="5" align="right" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20stalker.jpg" hspace="5" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">Actually there are several ways to make your dating website safer. One of the bigger things that has just recently been pretty big in the dating website world, are public records search. Some of the bigger dating websites have been searching through public records to ensure that the person is in fact single also not a criminal. People that are married and or a criminal are not allowed on the dating website at all. It sounds unfair, but it means keeping </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">infidelity</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> to a minimum and keeping your customers safe. Did you </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">know</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> that if a married person is caught claiming they are single on a dating website it is considered </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">fraud</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">. That can be a $250,000 fine and up to five years in jail. So if you&#8217;re married steer clear of dating websites, stick to your secretaries and pool boys. <img vspace="5" align="left" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20criminal.jpg" hspace="5" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">Another thing that dating websites are doing to keep their customers safe is to allow an administrator panel. This will allow your customers to contact the administrator if they have an unpleasant experience with one of the members. At that point the administrator has the right to observe the members profile and even remove it permanently from the dating website.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">One other thing you can do to make your dating website safer for your </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">customers</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> is to let them know the dangers of meeting a stranger </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">online</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">. List the steps they can take to protect themselves. Make it apparent to them that no security </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">measure</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> is ever going to be 100% fool proof. It </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">ultimately</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> comes down to the customers own judgment whether or no to let this stranger into their life. Also make sure that you stress to your customersnot to give out any information about their children. The only thing that could be worse than something happening to your customer is something happening to their children.<img vspace="5" align="right" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20child.jpg" hspace="5" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">Dating horror stories may make for a good thriller movie, but in real life it makes for only tragedy</span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">. Keep in mind that no dating website is ever going to have </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">security</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">measures</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> to protect their customers completely. It is really up to the customer to keep dating website </span><span class="mceitemhiddenspellword1"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">safety</span><span class="mceitemhidden"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"> in mind.<img vspace="5" align="left" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20mike.jpg" hspace="5" /></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">Now that you have your new dating website launched and running, you need to think of ways to get singles to sign up for your dating website. Advertising has become as important if not more important than the products themselves. People make millions advertising and marketing products in every industry. What good is a product that nobody knows about? So the way you market your dating website is extremely important. You want to make sure you are reaching your target audience, in this case singles.<img vspace="5" align="right" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20target.jpg" hspace="5" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">One of the best ways to advertise for your dating website is to have SEO (search engine optimization) done to your website. This will make your dating website more visible to the search engines so that your website pops up closer to the top of the search engine list. How often do you look at the second or third page of a search engine? Almost never, you find the website that has information you are looking for then you stop looking after that first page. It is not that those other websites on those other pages are bad, they are just not seen as being as important to the search engine as those at the top. SEO can cost web businesses hundreds of dollars, DreamCo Design does free SEO on all the websites we build.<img vspace="5" align="left" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20search.jpg" hspace="5" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">Some of the more basic things you can do to advertise your dating website would be to take out an ad in a magazine or TV if you have the money. More likely you can take an ad out over the radio and in the newspapers, or put up flyers in bars and clubs. But this kind of advertising would only bring in the singles from the local areas. How do you snag those singles across the country? The best way would be to take out pay-per-click on the major search engines. This is a relatively inexpensive way to bring in traffic from all over the country. It works the same way SEO does but you show up on the first page depending on how much you pay. Check out any search engine and you&#8217;ll notice the sponsored sites either listed at the top or on the side or both on the page with the search results.<img vspace="5" align="right" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20pay.jpg" hspace="5" /></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">Everyone knows that there are hundreds of dating websites. Each major city has at least 12, and that is a small estimate. Sometimes you come across a market that is flooded and it could make getting into that market a little more frightening. Do not let this detour you from starting your own dating website. Because just between you and me most of those dating websites are not quality sites. In fact there are very few that actually can do the things the big boys of the dating website world can do.<img vspace="5" align="right" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20big.jpg" hspace="5" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">Just take a look around at the dating websites on the web. What can you offer the web dating world that they don&#8217;t? Doing something different then all the other dating websites will definitely give you the upper hand on all those copy and paste dating websites. Anyone can take an idea and copy it, then toss it in the pool with a new name and logo. But it takes a true innovator to come up with something that the rest of the market has not done. This kind of thinking is exactly the kind that separates those copy and paste dating websites from the major ones. Bringing something new to the market of dating websites can be hard; so it may take some time for you to narrow down exactly what you plan to do to set you apart from the norm.<img vspace="5" align="left" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20innovative.jpg" hspace="5" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">One thing you are going to have to get used to are those copy and paste dating websites. Because as soon as they catch wind of your new idea, they will all be trying the same thing. So if you do have that great new revolutionary idea for the dating website world, you may want to look into getting a copyright on it. This will at least detour some of those copy and pasters. If you don&#8217;t look into the copyright the only thing you can do is to take pride in the fact that you came up with that idea as others make money off of it. But how is that fair to you? It is not, thatâ€™s why you need to make sure you cover your bum and talk to a copyright lawyer before you take your dating website project underway.<img vspace="5" align="right" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20copy.jpg" hspace="5" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'">DreamCo design has means to develop the next generation of dating websites.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So with all the dating websites around one must think that there is a huge profit to be made from all those poor saps that can&#8217;t find a date. And to some extent it is true, people will pay a few pretty pennies for a chance to meet Mr./Mrs. Right or Mr./Mrs. Right Now. But don&#8217;t write these people off as suckers just because they are having trouble meeting someone. These lonely fools know when they are being had by a dating website that uses stock photos of attractive singles, who are really just models in a photo studio. So make sure you only use real people, and don&#8217;t let advertisers corrupt your dating website.<img vspace="5" align="right" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20models.jpg" hspace="5" /></p>
<p>Let me clear something up for those of you that are upset at the above statement. It is a common misconception that people on the dating websites are these desperately lonely fools that sit at home every weekend, walking around their studio apartment, crying and eating a quart of ice cream. The fact of the matter is most of the people you see on a dating website are just really busy people who may not have time during the normal day to find a significant other. Or they are people who are sick of trying to meet other singles in the whole bar scene. Others are just looking to meet new people to have a good time with. No matter who these people are, or why they are on a dating website, we have to remember that they are our customers. And we all know what good customer service can do for a business.<img vspace="5" align="left" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20lonely.jpg" hspace="5" /></p>
<p>The fact of the matter is that these people will be trusting you, and possibly paying you (depending on what type of dating website you want), to help them find a person they would like to get to know, or even date. That is why it is extremely important that you see this as more than a money making venture. Sure there is still plenty of money to be made in the dating website market. But your dating website isgoing to be playing Cupid for these people, and that is not an easy gig to take on.<img vspace="5" align="right" src="http://www.dreamcodesign.com/blog/images/dating%20web%20design%20-%20cupid.jpg" hspace="5" /></p>
