Thread: Double dating website

Love the idea! Love it! However, you can take it another direction and grow it into a mix between meetup and double dating so that people who simply want to socialize can do so in a group where they are compatible or have similar interests. Two people can date from this, friendships can form, entrepreneurship can be excelled as like minded people meet, etc. etc. Reminds me of plentyoffish. Just get a programmer and partner up to discuss your prospects and possibilities.

Start by asking for opinions, the possibilities of the coder to make a site like that, etc. etc., then ask for their past examples or references. Eventually, you can offer a partnership, and sign a document were by you are equal partners. Once that happens, you can figure out traffic, while your partner does coding. This is cheaper cause your partner won't charge a single penny for his hard work which usually cost a lot. You will however, have to market the idea, and start with your friends and people from your local community by releasing fliers and tell them to form groups on your site to fill it a bit rather than have an empty site and expect people to join. You can start a forum, a blog, a social networking site, etc. etc. so yeah, kudos bro!

I am optimistic about your idea as this will take social dynamics to a whole new level on the net and people will save time by logging in and finding groups of people at the same time rather than going headhunting. Think about job postings as people could look for employees or employers using it. Awesome!

Wow, that's a pretty cool idea. Personally I prefer to be alone with my dates but I can see how it could be fun to try.

Seems like a pretty cool website!!! It seems like it has a lot of potential...

TheAstonMartian: I actually thought about the group/meet up aspect too, and I think it's a great way to make it even more social. That's also going to make the site relevant to even more people.

Thanks for the "how to" on partners! I've already had a potential partner contact me. Now I've asked for some references. However as far as I know they are already 3 people. Two programmers and a graphic designer. Is this too many? I'm thinking I would rather own 25% of a success than 100% of nothing. Great feedback, thanks!

77startup: I think it would be really fun too. Going on a date with your best mate and a chick duo instead of just hitting the club looking for random girls.

ir_dizzle: Yeah! BTW: I really like the design of Credzu.

Great Idea! Site looks great! Well done. Speed +

BrucetonGuy: This is NOT my site. I want one similar to this in my country (Denmark). That's why I'm asking for your opinion. Thanks for your input though!

Btw I just had to battle things out with a partner of mine and talk him into reducing his equity. Partners are great, but they are unpredictable. Are you sure your partners will have the stamina to survive the first year with you at least?

Well, let me explain you their offer. They will develop the site with their programmer and graphics design partners according to my wishes. Then when it's done they want X% (they say it's not much, and it's going to drop year after year) of the sites profit one time a year. If there's no profit it's just bad luck and I owe them nothing. On the other hand, if the site turns out to be very profitable they're going to get a fairly big paycheck every year.

In the meantime of them building the site, I can workout the marketing plan etc., and when the site's done it's MY site, me running it etc., and they will just work as my "come to"-guys if the site needs some tweaks, new functions and so on.

What do you think of their offer?

I think you need a lawyer to draft up a legally binding contract. The setup you provided is a fairly complicated one that will most likely need enforcing once success roles in.

Really interesting concept with masses of potential as has been highlighted ... thanks for sharing.

Please excuse my ignorance but I cannot see what sources of revenue this site has? Can't see a premium member option or any ads on the site? I must be missing something obvious would someone enlighten me!!
