IAC picks up DateHookup.dating
UPDATED 12:04 PM EDT, August 31, 2012 |
NEW YORK (AP) — Who says money can't buy love? Match.com and OKCupid owner IAC/InterActiveCorp has picked up another dating website, DateHookup.dating.
The New York company did not say Friday how much it's paying for DateHookup.dating. The website, founded in 2002, has more than 1 million unique visitors a month, according to IAC.
IAC, controlled by billionaire media mogul Barry Diller, says its online dating businesses had revenue of more than $500 million in 2011. IAC's total revenue last year was $2.06 billion. In addition to the dating sites, IAC owns about 150 Internet brands and products, including CollegeHumor and Ask.com.
It's been a busy week for the company. On Monday, the New York Times Co. said that was selling its troubled online information service, About.com, to IAC for $300 million.
Shares of IAC shed 11 cents to $51.78 in morning trading.

Same here..will delete account when they start charging. And they will, sooner or later. I'm not in this 'business', but makes sense to charge. When it comes about, more people will pay, then leave.

I dont like the idea of paying but have to weigh the options.I dont do church,seldom do the bar thing anymore and am not likely to meet many single women while hiking or kayaking.

I will miss DH. To me it is a far better social site than facebook ever hoped to be. I hardly ever even log on to facebook.

POF is probably a better site for actually getting a date anyway. So why pay for anything. Online dating really doesn't work....Most of the people that have met someone from GACHAT has been a result of the events/parties.....not because the site.

Maybe they see how it is works and will continue to make money with advertising. Well see but really, it's not the same here anyway already...

Webdate,blackplanet,OKcupid,Tagged are basically free but are full of scammers.POF was pretty good until they started to charge for added features.All the other sites you have to pay to really get any use out of them

I agree. I prefer to meet someone at an event.
Definitely get the most emails on POF.
I like OkCupid the best but get the least action.
A lot of the same people are on all of the sites. I've seen several of you on both of those.
I've never been contacted by a scammer. Well, maybe I have. I ignore 99% of the emails I get so I wouldn't know.

No worries, they make their money from advertisers not charging people like us.
