1. Decide what keywords you are going to target and promote your site for. This is a very important step, because you must find words and phrases that deliver good traffic and have low competition. Then place your keywords into your title tag, description tag, keywords tag and several times in the text of your page.

2. Submit your site to major directories like DMOZ, Yahoo (this will cost you $299 a year), JoeAnt, GoGuides and dating specific directories - You can find a good dating directory list here Dating Directories - Dating Services - LoveCompass.

3. Exchange link with other dating websites. Choose only good, well-structured websites that will be interesting for your visitor. Think as visitor and ask yourself if you would go to this site, and if yes, then write a polite letter asking webmaster to exchange links with you. Remember that you should set a link to this site on your LINKS page first. Ask to place your keywords in the text of the link - this will help you with search engines.

4. Make your contacts easily available and manage your website every day, answer all letters, add content, explore, investigate, share your knowledge, find partners, ask questions and eventually you will see your income grow.

You might want to try building widgets and distributing them to sites. They can be on dating tools, romantic quizes etc.

I think the key is a strong affiliate program, I have a dating site too The Adult World - Free adults only social networking for friends, sports, groups, services, and dating and I am stuck for now. The next step is definably a affiliate program and pro article submitter

Blogs can be helpful as a support for your main site. Try to participate on forums and other relevant communities. Optimize your site for your targeted keywords to have a good rank on the search engines and come up on the natural searches.

On marketing however, I think it's quite clear that you need to start by focusing on one local area. Affiliate marketing is definitely the way to go, but to start it might not be sufficient.

How about giving away some memberships? Have a booth/walk around at malls/festivals/campuses/bars where you take people's digital photos? There has to be a way to get lots of people signing up to kickstart something like this. Partnering with some of the free local papers- those that cater to the age group of your choice could work too.

To your success,

In addition, getting active in popular social networking sites like Myspace and Facebook is good too. There're millions of visitors in such sites each day, not to mention that lots of them are single.

Keep joining communities like this but it should have the same theme as your site. Adult community sites might be a good way to start since people there are more interested to this kind of thing.

A Toronto-based director would like to feature a prominent dating site in a 45-second cinema-quality (better than HD) viral commercial.

Can be used for web, phone, and broadcast.
Written by one of Toronto’s top advertising teams.
Production value of Cdn $120,000.
Director wants to sell the spot and will insert your company name, logo, web address.
The commercial is being submitted to Cannes award show.
Commercial targets early 20s to late 40s male/female audience.
The commercial is written to be empathetic to females about their dating experieces and encourage then to join an online dating site. At the same time the commercial appeals to males by virtue of its edgy humor.

The director seeks to recoup some of the production costs with a $2,500 USD fee or Best Offer. Once you see the commercial you’ll understand you are getting the deal of the century.

Create your unique coupon system signing contracts with clothing stores (or other Internet shops). Like, if your register you get 5% coupon, if you feel your profile - 10%, if you.... use your imagination

Consider setting up a quick video with your site branded in it. You can include tips for single parent dating (nice sub niche by the way). Submit it to all the major video engines.
