How to make a dating site for educated singles

I did a few google searches using keywords like: educated, intelligent singles, etc… to see what BrainiacDating is up against and found these:

educatedsingles


gradhearts


eliteeducated

Maybe it’s just me, but I think something is missing here! Suggestions?

Dating Reach Rankings on Twitter

I have used Peer Reach to determine the relevant reach of dating related accounts on Twitter.
See: http://peerreach.com/lists/dating


Peer Reach does not just determine reach by the number of friends or followers, but is measuring interactions between users and finding the most relevant information.
More information can be found on their site.

The following is a list of the reach of the top 200 dating accounts that I created with their API. They are ranked top down and


Your Tango

has the greatest reach.

Dating Influencers

Who in the dating sector has the highest influence? There are several ways we may get at this from the Klout score to the number of twitter followers, to the number of retweets to the number of twitter lists, and perhaps some combination of these.

Below is a list based on a Twitter API search on “Dating”. I am inclined to take the number of twitter lists as the best indicator, and so that’s how the rank is assigned. This is because list inclusion is based on another twitter user making a significant effort to find out what someone else is saying, more than just following or retweeting them.

See the full list here.

New Look Home Page

The array of images is now displayed at their correct aspect ratio. Before I had adjusted the images to all have the same aspect ratio so they fit together better.
The new look looks more like a real photo album and helps show that this site is for real. There are no model photos.

What else should I do to improve the home page?

This is what I found in my inbox today, and I am not even christian, not single and not over 51?

How did they get my email address?

Perfect Spammer Profile

Ladies, beware of something like this:

 

I am  young at heart. Man with a sensual, elegant appearance. I have a European background and am stylish, refined and sincere.”I’m worldly experiences and am a genuine Man. I am a down to Earth and romantic person with broad interests: I am content and successful gifted with one child around me whom I love and adore well-balanced man and I enjoy my own time as well as sharing time with that special person… I am intuitive, sensitive and well organized I’m a lot of fun to be with.I am a happy single man that enjoy dining out, reading, movies, going out with friends, camping, going to the sea side & just having fun.I’m looking for someone i can grow old with. Giving each other back rubs, Going for a country drive, Renting a movie, Roasting marshmallows over a campfire, Snuggling up in front of the fireplace, Taking a sunset boat ride. I like reading Danielle Steele.

 

There are no real men available like that, just spammers. Note the subtle grammatical mistakes – these are easy to catch with software on my site.
