THE DATING STUDIO - Aug 22 - TheDatingStudio.com share the database with Cupid plc. Recently Cupid plc decided to sell off its "casual" dating assets. The new owners of the Cupid "casual" brands have decided that they no longer wish to support third party clients. TheDatingStudio is giving its partners two months notice to terminate their white label relationship.
Mark Brooks: Our client, Dating Factory is our recommended option for orphaned Cupid white label partners. They're as solid as a rock and growing, and the technology, reporting and rev shares are first rate.

Is that because DatingFactory are the ones paying you Mark?

That or because the only other one is WLD, who have been reported as one of the most corrupt dating companies!

So am I right in thinking my site will be terminated? I thought they were just not accepting new partners?

Hi Oliver, that is not the case, your site will not be terminated. We are working in partnership with IDE to ensure a smooth migration of all existing IDE partners, sites and member database over to our platform.

I will not recommend a company that I do not believe in.
We take clients that need help. They're welcome to pay Courtland Brooks, but if I don't think they're a quality player, and a best-in-class player, they WILL NOT get our recommendation. They will get advice on how to become a quality player instead.
Dating Factory have been around for years. I've known Tanya, Lisa, George for several years now. They have my vote of confidence.
I've also known Ross, Steve, and Matt for several years now. I'm surprised and disappointed that WLD used 'pseudos' in the past. At least they had the cojones to come clean and admit their mistakes. I believe they're moving in the right direction now.

There's also DIY-Dating to consider, been around for over 10 years now with a rock solid reputation.

I can vouch for DatingFactory, very easy to set up and simpler to customise than WLD. No need to pay money out to graphic designers either. WLD are making life difficult for people who just want to get involved. But researching the market first is always the best idea, and that means seeing what works and what doesn't (POF for example). I have a number of DF sites, www.flirt-site.com being one of them.
