article about "The next big thing in online dating"

Journalist Paige Nick feels there's a sore lack of innovation in the world of online hookups
https://www.timeslive.co.za/sunday-times/lifestyle/2017-07-29-the-next-big-thing-in-online-dating/





Lack Of Innovation and Decadence can summarize the Online Dating Industry.
C-Level executives are more worried about their golf scores than their company’s long term strategy and innovations.
C-level executives are cooking barbecues under the water (selling smoke) and not paying attention to latest research from Academics which could be beneficial for the Online Dating Industry.


The 3 milestone discoveries of the 2001 - 2010 decade for Theories of Romantic Relationships Development are:

I) Several studies showing contraceptive pills users make different mate choices, on average, compared to non-users.
"Only short-term but not long-term partner preferences tend to vary with the menstrual cycle"

II) People often report partner preferences that are not compatible with their choices in real life. (Behavioural recommender systems or other system that learns your preferences are useless)

III) What is important in attracting people to one another may not be important in making couples happy.
Compatibility is all about a high level on personality similarity between prospective mates for long term mating with commitment, and not meet other people with similar interests or political views.

 

At the paper  "Perceptions of Ideal and Former Partners' Personality and Similarity
The authors had written
".... mismatches in personality are a frequently mentioned cause for relationship break-up. If former partners indeed have dissimilar personalities, our findings underline how difficult it is for many people to select a mate with a similar personality, or, alternatively, how little value individuals put on finding a similar partner in terms of personality.
The present study's results, as well as the results found in previous studies (e.g., Eastwick & Finkel, 2008), may be used to educate people, especially singles, about what really matters in long-term relationships, for instance, similarity in personality, instead of complementarity."



The Online Dating Industry does not need a 10% improvement, a 50% improvement or a 100% improvement. It does need "a 100 times better improvement"

LAWSUIT Chad Perkins et al. v. Match Group Inc. et al., case number 1:17-cv-2988

Ms. Mandy Ginsberg, CEO Of Match in 2 different BI articles?
http://onlinedatingsoundbarrier.blogspot.com.ar/2017/07/ms-mandy-ginsberg-ceo-of-match-in-2.html

When Match Group (fka IAC Personals) bought OKCupid (6+ years ago) for an astronomical amount of money, the OKCupid team had the task to copycat Badoo, but they failed in that mission.
IAC / Match Group "acquired" HatchLabs to "develop" Tinder copycat of Badoo.
Then Badoo backed Bumble to fight back and destroy Tinder.

new eHarmony Marketing campaign "Right from the Start"




http://www.lisatrucchio.com/portfolio-item/eharmony-right-from-the-start/
http://www.lisatrucchio.com/portfolio-item/eharmony-marketing-emails/

http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/eharmony.com
http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/elitesingles.com

It is part of eHarmony and EliteSingles (Affinitas GmbH.) big war
http://onlinedatingsoundbarrier.blogspot.com.ar/2017/05/for-elitesingles-ceo-to-speak-at-idate.html


eHarmony is a 17+ years old obsolete site
The success rate of eHarmony is less than 10%.
eHarmony is only supported by a big marketing budget and not by serious scientific evidence.
The Big Five normative test used by eHarmony and its copycats, had been proven/revealed as an incomplete and incorrect model to assess/measure personality of persons.
Now it is a HOAX, a FRAUD to use it (year 2017)

Mixture Modelling of the HEXACO Personality Inventory

eHarmony CEO and article "The Online Dating Industry is Growing and Evolving"
http://onlinedatingsoundbarrier.blogspot.com.ar/2017/07/eharmony-ceo-and-article-online-dating.html


When eHarmony was launched in August year 2000, the Big Five normative personality test
was revealed as incorrect and incomplete model of personality!!!
Please see: THE HEXACO PERSONALITY INVENTORY - REVISED / A MEASURE OF THE SIX MAJOR DIMENSIONS OF PERSONALITY
http://hexaco.org/history

The Big Five normative personality test used by eHarmony and copycats like eDarling or EliteSingles had been revealed as incorrect and incomplete model of personality SINCE YEAR 2000!!!  17 long years ago!
Now it is obsolete and a fraud to use the Big Five normative personality test!

eHarmony was copycatted in several countries like
the online dating sites EliteSingles in Canada, Australia, USA, UK, Chile, Mexico; eDarling in Spain, German, France, Russia;

Unless they can prove their method can match prospective partners who will have more stable and satisfying relationships (and very low divorce rates) than couples matched by chance, astrological destiny, personal preferences, searching on one's own, or other technique as the control group in a peer reviewed Scientific Paper for the majority (over 90%) of the members of the site: It is a HOAX, a big FRAUD.
