Markus From PlentyOffish.com fake it till he make it
PlentyofFish.com, a dating website that provides a free dating outlet where anyone can go and browse to find their other half or just to socialize with people you have an interest in.
Back in 2006, creator and owner of Plenty fish Markus Find claim to be making in the sum of $10,000 per day from Google Adsense just working a few hours per day. That’s a lot of money for a dating site operates by one man.
One think that strikes me about Plentyoffish claim is that I never known about them and most people I know also never seen this website before articles starting to circulate the internet of how much he making. I spent a lot of time on the internet and I know more than 70% of all major website. Never seen Plentyoffish.
Personally, I do think he was making some money in the beginning but that large figure was just to create excitement and publicity around his website and backlink to established Alexa ranking and Google PR.
I visited the website a few times now and I notice the website always boast the current member online which is always anywhere from 70,000 to 150,000. Personally, I think this figure is fake, and its only use is to lure in member and let them feel the website is packed with members.
I done a search on Plentyoffish and why is it seem everyone is always online and I can’t find a single person that is not online.
Let’s do the Math, the site averaging 130,000 visitor per hour that is always online, that’s about 3, 000,000 visitor every 24 hour. 3 million visitors per day at a 3% click through rate on ads will be about 90,000 visitors who click on ads.
Not count Impression on Ads, let’s say the average ads pays .50 cent per click. That’s about $45,000 per day he should be making or $16 million per year.
I think Markus making some money but his visitor count on his site and article all over the internet is just publicity stunt to drive traffic and create backlink to his site.
Think about it for a second. Why all the article is about how much money he his making and why do you think he publicly displaying how much people on the website.
One man with a website with over 100,000 visitor online at any given moment, give me a brake, think about the amount of email question he receiving and maintenance on such a heavy traffic website site.
Check this out and let me know if it makes any sense.
Plentyoffish.com has a traffic rank of: 416
Other sites that link to this site: 2,077
Plentyoffish.com was first registered on: 01-Jun-2001.
Number of employee is: 1
Eharmony.com has a traffic rank of: 1,065
Other sites that link to this site: 1,688
Eharmony.com was first registered on: 24-Dec-1998
Number of employee is: 34 and they looking for 12 more
I’m not even going to compare with any other dating website, let’s just used eHarmony. Looking at the numbers above, Plentyoffish seems to be a bigger and lager website than eHarmony that I knew about years ago since they always running TV commercial.
My question is why eHarmony needs almost 50 employees to run their website while Plentyoffish.com only managed by one man. And Plentyoffish seems to be a bigger website.
I concluded that Markus Find fake the numbers about the traffic on his site and how much he is making to create a publicity stunt to grow his website. I also think more is involved with Plentyoffish.com than what meets the eyes.
