PlentyOfFish, which has grown from start-up company to worldwide industry leader, makes this announcement after aggressive growth in the use of their mobile dating applications, reporting 80% of members' usage now occurs via a mobile device. Both user and revenue gains are indicative of growing acceptance of online dating, the continued consumer shift to mobile, and the evolving dating habits of the world's population.
"Since our shift to mobile we've seen rapid growth both in terms of users and revenue," said PlentyOfFish founder and CEO, Markus Frind. "Our revenue model has also evolved from one driven by advertising to one driven by paid membership, indicating that, now more than ever, singles are willing to pay for an enhanced user experience."
PlentyOfFish is credited with creating one million relationships each year, with a couple confirming they met on PlentyOfFish every two minutes. According to Frind, the company's future success will depend on their ability to create even more lasting relationships.
"Reaching the 100 million user milestone means we've been able to connect more people and create more relationships than anyone else in the online dating space. Our focus moving forward is to continue to innovate our algorithm and technology to assist with even more qualified matches, leading to more successful, long-lasting relationships."
