OPW - June 11 - Will you make money from selling profile verifications? Probably not. Will it help raise the perceived value of your services, by raising the 'quality' of your database of users. Quite possibly. A power user pointed out to us that Cupid Media is experimenting with profile verification checks on KoreanCupid.com. See image.
Mark Brooks: I emailed the CEO of Cupid Media, and he allowed us to run this comment...
Andrew, CEO, Cupid Media: Verification is important for a certain group of users and gives extra confidence in profiles for those users. It’s too early too tell on what type of uptake we will get, but at least users have the option to do it.
It's a great idea especially with all the bad press for online dating.
