For netizens, the birth of dating sites expands their circle of friends and gives them more opportunities. But for the Chinese marriage website, it has not yet ushered in the spring. The biggest problem for websites and investors is how to make money and how to keep it profitable? There is no standard answer.
At present, although there are four to five companies in the user scale leading position, but at present there is no claim to large-scale, continuous profit. Why, Eric Consulting analyst Xu Bin to Tencent Technology, the reasons for the following points.
1, the user market needs to be further cultivated
