With the occupation of market share increased, matchmaking service will contribute a greater proportion of the income. On the evolution of dating sites from line to line, Yang Xuebin, an analyst with the Internet, says the trend toward offline or offline lines is more pronounced when the impact of the web on life deepens. Love and marriage very need offline environment to meet, need to line the organization and matchmaker, for two people to do the endorsement of the trust, so the market under the line will be much larger than the line. Online matchmaking charges are not cheap. ARPU (average charges per user) is high and the market is larger. The advantage of dating sites is that many users. The development of the upper and lower century Jia edge of the company in addition to the century Jia Edge Network has a number of different dating website brand. such as Love true net, absolute 100 net, seek a reply net, courtship net.

The paradox of dating sites is that when the user's needs are not met, they leave, and when the user's needs are met, they don't need to stay on the platform. After a year or two of active periods, the loss of users is almost inevitable. Fortunately, in addition to China's large population base, marriage and love sites are also taking measures to deal with the loss of users. The first is to extend the user's cycle, forward and backwards. Stretching forward to love. Dating is the first dating and marriage, there is a process.
