I always thought there was something fishy about Markus’s claims. One half of my believes him but I also have serious doubts. I can’t see how his site earns that much.

The last time I visited it he had like one AdSense block on the index page and I really had to start looking to find other pages with AdSense ads. The profiles for instance don’t have ads. The AdSense block is also in a terrible position. I imagine the CTR must be horrible.

If the EPC is about 10 cents he needs about 100,000 clicks a day to reach $10k. That sounds nearly impossible to me for a site like Plenty of Fish.

I totally agree dude!

I find that almost all the people who make false adsense claims are launching the hype before the dollar. In other words, they are not earning sh*t and use the hype to create the buzz which can infact make the money follow me?
Agree?

Not that I completely disagree with the sentiment of your post, I don’t know how fake the release is — POF has been in the top 5 dating sites for a while, depending on what analysis firm you side with.

As for not having a premium account… if I remember correctly you’re well aware that it’s something you can be stripped of or denied, even if you have the numbers.

Besides, “fake it ’till you make it,” right?

Wow… am totally speechless, everyone did buy into his claim including me. I don’t know the whole story behind this, I respect you alot shoe and know that you know what you’re talking about. I guess am just in shock if this is true.

No Offense Shoe, but i know markus from the boards and actually if you combine his other sites and his PPC efforts he makes much more than 10k a day.

[...] Am still in shock at what I read at Shoemoney blog, he say and I qoute “Well… I can not believe so many people have bought into this whole plentyoffish scam. Actually I can. Social engineering totally amazes me.” [...]

Hi Gopi =)

The quotes from the articles say the 1 site plentyoffish.com make 10k/day. That is what I do not believe is true. I have no doubt the guy could make 10k/day from combined websites and strategies.

Well.. did it work? Is he making money? It’s the the rap music industry.. gotta fake it till you make it type mentallity

1. I’ve never heard of you until recently, nor have i ever emailed you. I am amazed that
A. You would think I even know who you are.
B. wtf would an interview here accomplish?

2. I suppose image just imaging the fact that 2% of online singles in canada use my site.
3. I suppose this is fake to? http://www.plentyoffish.com/aff.jpg I pasted the header on top so you can see what the column names mean.

It never ceases to amaze me how many people become self apointed experts in areas they aren’t even in.

I see you have a picture of revenuegateway up, their offices are less then 100 meters from my apartment, i’m sure they could vouch for my traffic. Same with hitwise.com or ranking.websearch.com etc Of course any kind of big affiliate or expert would already have access to these traffic stats and more.

The only thing I don’t understand is why you are making sh*t up and trying to get attention?

He did not contact me, I tracked down his contact info and requested an interview with him myself through WMW. Mark Brook’s Online Personals Watch lists PlentyofFish as the 5th largest internet dating site according to Hitwise. Mark or Hitwise might just making this up, but as far as I can tell he is completely legitimate.

I think you are right in questioning if this is bogus, but all of the information I saw pointed that this was not a hoax. I will take a second look at this.

Is this just your opinion or do you know this for a fact?

Shoe, I do think that the single site Plentyoffsh rakes that much.

It has huge traffic, ranks well in the dating area…so considering other big paid dating sites bringing 100’s of millions ,i dont see why plentyoffish cannot make 10k a day?.

I think this only aplifies shoemoney’s point!

You post a screenshot where you are only making 1k/day AFTER you got all the press.

Markus:

Many of us know you scraped and put together all those fake female profiles to bait in guys.

Its about time someone said what many others think. I bet he even answers emails for the girls profiles he scraped.

Once you go blackhat, you never go back!

Forgot to even comment on this quote..

“Then he solicited some people to scrape dating profiles of females from random sites so he could fill his dating website with female profiles. ”

That is another complete and outright LIE. I never asked anyone to scrape anything nor have i ever scrapped anything. Why are you trying to get yourself sued for libel/slander ? You do realize I will sue you, and you don’t have a chance in hell of winning, as everything you said is a outright LIE.

Hey jackass this is my personal blog and those are my opinions.

Do you promise to sue me or is this more of your bs ? Atleast in court we would find out if you were full of crap on your figures.

Can’t verify the figures but I can say that Markus has always been a great guy to talk with (if only in brief PM’s on boards) and he is definitely a highly intelligent person/marketer. That said, as far as I can remember it looks like after the publicity and probably thousands of links generated by all the press, interviews, etc, he’s gone from about #5 for “online dating” to #2 and I’m sure he’s jumped up quite a bit on other terms as well. So, regardless of the “truthiness” that’s some damn good LinkROI for time and effort spent.

No doubt I TOTALLY AGREE the ends justify the means. I think he is a marketing genius. Right up there with the “rich jerk”.

I thought the figures seemed inflated too, and the site definitely
doesn’t look like one I would give my credit card to, let alone just
my email.

Plus, who clicks on the 486 * 60 adsense banners?

Way to call him on it, Shoe.

shoe you are not the first person I have heard say this site was built on bullcrap. I also very much doubt the ligitimacy of his 10k/day from adsense

LOL…funny post!
What these phonies do is make people with dollar signs in their eyes think they can do the same, the fact is it is very difficult for average folks to market an idea high enough to make even a couple bucks a day via adsense.

AND if you ask Shoe he will tell you spammin’ and jammin’ is also not glamorous and is serious work, I am sure shoe would admit this if he hasn’t already right dude?
Here is someone who mirrors the sad reality: http://www.buildingmyempire.com/ (read it people)

hmmm spammin and jammin while educational is not very profitable. I am working on a interesting future blogpost about that.

I like his stat “600,000 visitors/day. 4,000,000 messages/day”. That means that EVERY has to send 6.66 messages to someone else every time they visit. Assuming a large portion of traffic is just browsing pics, then that number increases exponentially depending upon number of non-members hitting the site. Also considering that usually men send out the most messages while women respond to just a few, the numbers of messages each male member must send each day is in the hundreds. Maybe his members don’t do anything but surf his site and click his ads all day?
Some more numbers (clearly MY estimates):
Assumptions: CTR 2.5%, CPC $.30
Let’s work backwards from $10,000/day
Required Clicks= 33,333
Required Number Page Views=1,333,333
Can he generate that many PVs? If he is getting 600,000 visitors/day he can easily serve up 2+ ads per user and make $10,000/day.

Can someone jump in and do point-counterpoint on my numbers?

[...] Shoemoney calls out Markus Frind, the owner of that free dating site called PlentyOfFish.com who claims he has been pulling in $10,000 a day from Adsense. [...]

Silly Shoe… It’s just a different set of skills that also happens to pay the bills.

[...] Posted on May 8, 2006 at 10:40 pm Some heated discussion about Markus Frind’s claims have popped up at ShoeMoney’s blog. 1Offs.com will not be taking sides on this but would like to invite ShoeMoney to clear up his story about the 10,000 domains claim, since he is all for honesty! [...]

A CTR of 2.5% is highly unlikely, I think at least ten times lower. Visit his site and see where he put the ads.. On few page and they aren’t really optimized too.

Look ladies. Why does it even matter? It’s not like any of you are actually going to exchange bank account info to find out for sure. I make $80k a month PROFIT. Sitting here watching TV. If I didn’t see it in my bank, and I heard someone else say they made that much, I wouldn’t believe it. But, like I said, you’ll never see my account, so you can choose to believe, or not. It’s amazing that now Shoe’s site will got LOADS of publicity because of this calling.

But, like I said… again. You’ll never know for sure. So why argue it? Bored?

well, that his way of promoting his site….

“Required Clicks= 33,333
Required Number Page Views=1,333,333″

With 600,000 visits on a site of this nature you’re looking at easily 6,000,000 page views per day. Either way though… that’s still only 600,000 visitors. When you’re talking about forums, rating sites, etc., it’s usually easier to determine what the likelihood of a certain CTR is on the first page view then throw in a small amount of clicks for people who will actually click an ad sometime after that. I don’t have time to go inspect his ad placement but I’m *hoping* he could get 5% or higher CTR on first pageviews. That would be $9,000 on your CPC estimate + another $1000-1500 on whatever aff programs he does (assuming friendfinder type stuff). There ya go, 10k/day.

Reminds me of the time I became *nearly* number one in my niche .. just because I kept saying I was .. and the media repeated what I told them. When someone called me on the carpet for it, I’d make the very true claim that I was only one person, while my nearest competitor had over 100 employees and 10 million in VC funding .. then the underdog story got circulated .. and kept fueling the *myth* of my dominance .. oh those were the days

Is there really any need to behave like kids and fight over stuff another person has or has not achieved. If he makes 10k/day he well deserves it, if he doesn’t he’s a marketing genius and well deserves the press.

I kinda feel lost in this industry lately. Outing SPAM was a no-go about a year ago, though some people did via email, now they even blog it and only for the link love. Now we go even further and say that people from our industry lie and are full of sh*t. Back in the days we all were friendly to each other and enjoyed learning from each others ideas and approaches. Now everybody gets jealous. Sad world.

[...] Here is another forumer, Shoemoney, also from WebmasterWorld wrote that, it is a scam. Markus Frind created the story to get attention to his site, as a marketing strategy. He did it. And now every adsense communities are talking about him. [...]

Scrape Scrape Scrape All Day Long….Scrape Scrape Scrape While I Sing This Song.

I’m with you Shoe. I don’t see how he could possible earn 10k a day from that site unless it involves an army of clickers in Bangalore

Up to you old tricks again ShoeMoney - to get a little controversy going
If a site with an Alexa ranking in the 600’s (today 678) can’t make that kind of money I don’t know who can.

I’ve no problem with a bit of healthy skepticism about a site but to make claims that the guy has approached you for an interview etc seems like that the lying might not be isolated to Marcus?

From what I can see of what he’s said and what the evidence says Markus seems to be on the up and up.

Richard B - your figures are good but remember that these days AdSense has impression based ads as well. From what I’ve seen popular sites often get targetted for these so it doesn’t require a click to earn the money always.

Ultimately there’s not ‘proof’ in these matters - but I’d be careful about the claims you make about people. While this might be a personal blog, that doesn’t mean you can say anything you like about them. The fact is that this is a public forum and as a result you’re responsible for the things you say about people.

interesting that you’ve edited this post to take out the claim that he emailed you etc….

Nothing has been edited. The claim he emailed me is still there.

I saw you put a href tag in but it was broke were you linking to where i critized you with the chitika thing? if so I will fix it (your comment link)

Are you serious that dating/personals Adwords ads would go for 30 cents a click? Or even 50 cents before Google’s cut? I would think more, and therefore more revenue potential/easier reach of claimed earnings.

“Richard B - your figures are good but remember that these days AdSense has impression based ads as well. ”

I’m not sure if this was aimed at me, but I didn’t see any other Richards in the list but me. Could be wrong or overlooked a name. I realize that this is about Adsense, and I make the bare minimum in Adsense these days, I’ve been through the $1k per day phase. My figures are not from Adsense, and my traffic is no where near what Markus’s is. I’d have to say in any given day, I have a total of about 10k page views a day. That’s a rough estimate. And probably generous at that.

Anyway, my point is that it’s not necessary to call someone out on their stats. Shoe’s project of $40k in the PPC market for whatever it was he did could also be bullsh*t too. The only one who knows, is us. The people who make it. And our accoutants.

[...] Check out the story here: Plentyoffish - Marketing 101 When All Else Fails Just Lie [...]

I think you guys are underestimating the CPC of dating ads, especially on a geo level. He should be pulling in atleast $1/click unless his quality score is crap. Dating is ridiculously competitive in PPC and their CTR is typically higher than other industries I’ve run.

Not saying he is pulling in 10k/day, just pointing out that I think many of you are undervaluing the CPC of those adsense clicks.

[...] But Markus responded saying that he does not understand why Shoemoney need to get the attention in this way. See what’s happening here.. [...]

Interesting that shoemoney believes someone spamming Google base can make 10k a day (http://www.shoemoney.com/category/google-base/) but plentyoffish.com can not???

[...] However, another popular blogger - ShoeMoney tried to spoil his icon status by linking to some of the press releases written by Markus and raises a doubt -”Its kind of funny he makes 10k a day yet is not a premium publisher”” [...]

Markus,
Threatening to sue someone to get them to stop is a criminal offense.

Well, I don´t mind at all. If the statistics Markus states to have are true, he could earn as much as 10k daily without any problems. First, the click price is much higher than 10 cents. Maximum bids are at some USD 2 and there is enough advertisers exceeding 50 cents. No one knows what is the portion Google pays to publishers but let´s say it´s 40%, then the average click can bring some 30 cents to Markus. To reach 10k daily he would need 33.333 clicks. He states to have 600.000 unique visits daily, let´s say he has 1.5 million adsense impressions a day (2.5 page view per visitor). That makes (33.3k/1.5m) 2.22% CTR, quit reasonable for that kind of website.
The good point stressed by Shoemoney was the premium publisher status. Markus seems either not to have it or not to use it (can be!).
What sounds strange to me is the fact that Markus did medialize his earnings and also he publicly stated he was the best Canada´s AdSense publisher and Google is quiet about it. I suppose they would protest if the info from Scobleizer or Andrews were BS!

[...] Recently ShoeMoney called out Markus Frind of PlentyofFish. [...]

[...] Um, $10,000 a day via adsense: maybe not… [...]

I work daily on a site that has an Alexa of about 1,000. It is not a tech site and the users have never been asked to install the toolbar. It moves a *staggering* amount of traffic and is #1 on a term that gets 10’s of thousands of searches per day on Google. It still drops in and out of the top 1,000 Alexa. Rankings like that are impossible to fake without user bribery and since it is backed up by other traffic stats, I think the page views Marcus has are undeniable.

Give me a break! Shoemoney has basically used theories and hunches to come to the conclusion that Markus is lying.

Please show a screen shot of his adsense account stats.

Please show communication from a Google employee that states the guy is lying.

How on earth did you come op with his daily earnings actually being $1,000??

IMO, he’s getting the word out to cash out = sell plentyoffish.com (but this is just a guess)

Maybe the guy is embellishing, maybe not. Point is he and others are making some good money and those who aren’t achieving at that level will never believe that anyone else can either………this is very sad.

Way to go Shoe! A dozen days later and Yahoo is showing 487 backlinks to this post, MSN is showing 1357, Google as we all know… is busted.

So way to stir it up! Controversy sells.

Old tactics. Everybody can see right away ShoeMoney is not that clever and is the loser here (I think he knows that). Markus, if he is lying then it’ll come back to him.

I was so impressed with Markus that I have set myself a target of making $10000 a day myself.
I have relaunched amithefox.com with a of the shelf script and am going to promote it strongly. I will prove that if the site is totally free, $10000 a day is possible.
Watch out!

He may very well be making 10,000 a day. I just don’t like the mans attitude.

I agree. And he shouldn’t be posting here fighting with shoe.

At the end of the day with the traffic POF is getting.. he’s doing pretty well..
In fact I think this site of his will make a huge impact on the way many future larger sites are now developed.
To this end im going to try to mirror his strategies in a different niche that is normally a membership site.. in this case it will be totally free and equal to its membership competitors.

remember Friendfinder INC sold recently for over 900 Million USD.

what does that say about top ranking Personals Websites?

if FF is worth that much.. POF is worth a LOT !!

More power to Marcus I say.

Shoe, nice post mate.. but I think your off on this one..

Hi there,

First, I really impressed with his brave mind of started out something empty, and created so many empty b.s…. then at the end, people helping him to gain the advertising and he is actually making the income.

This could give an idea for others who will do similar things in the coming future. So better watch out.

Calvin Chin

How do i take this baby to the next level? everyone is telling me that’s one of the best ideas ever created but no one wants to put up the money to advertise it…any suggestions?

To Markus Frind of Canada, owner of Plentyoffish.com:

Re: your unfair termination of my membership and your anti-male,
discriminatory, fraudulent and unlawful business model.

Why did you delete my profile and terminate my membership on July 3, 2006 at
8:57 PM?

You did so without any notice or explanation. In fact, you deceived me as to
the reason, resulting in my wasting a lot of my time. Consequently, the next
day, I spent six hours attempting to log on. At first, I assumed your site
was down. Then, I adjusted my browser privacy setting as your automated
notice suggested (this was your deception). When that didn’t work, I
e-mailed my buddy to see whether he could log on. He was able to do so.
Then, I got suspicious, so I searched for my own profile and found that you
had deleted it. Such a delayed search was the only way I could find out!

The next day, I attempted to register another profile, several times, using
three new usernames. Each of them worked for less than an hour, but I did
not get the administrative deletion message when I searched for each of
those names after they had been deleted. All I got was a deadend, without
any explanation. The first thing I did with the first two new profiles was
to contact all the people I had been commmunicating with, to explaine what
had happened, so I wouldn’t leave them hanging. But, obviously, none of them
got my note because my e-mail was automatically deleted with my profile,
immediately after I sent it.

Consequently, you left about a dozen of my friends hanging, in addition to
many more whom I had contacted for the first time. You therefore damaged
many relationships, frustrated many people, and destroyed the investment we
had made in our relationships, and destroyed the investment of my time I had
made in writing my profile and searching for prospects.

On or about July 4, 2006, I e-mailed your Tech. Support Dept., asking them
why I had been terminated. I have not received any response. I saw no other
recourse posted on your website at that time.

You owe me and my friends better treatment than this. You owe the People of
the United States better treatment. You brag on your website that you are
the largest free dating website, and that you rank #5 overall. Therefore,
you have the responsibility to treat users fairly and to give them proper
notice and explanation of membership termination, because such termination
limits their alternatives to the extent that you brag about, yourself. As
you should know, a provider in a monopoly position, such as yourself, has a
special duty and responsibility to the public.

Your actions are unfair, irresponsible, reckless and monopolistic.

It appears that your business model exploits certain dynamics that drive
your business, to the extreme extent that you unfairly and unlawfully
discriminate against male members to maximize the number of female members
and your advertising revenue. This business is driven by ads posted by
female members, which attract men who respond to initiate contact. Females
initiate only a small fraction of contacts, as you know from your own
statistics. Such facts mirror the real world outside of the Internet.

Consequently, you do anything you can to retain female members to the extent
that you pander to them by terminating male members whenever they get a
certain minimum number of complaints from females, regardless of the merit
of the complaints. However, it’s obvious that you don’t do the same for
complaints by males, as indicated by your unresponsiveness to my complaints
about females who have obviously fraudulent or absurd ads. Some of those ads
are duplicates (they even log on to both profiles in rapid succession). Some
of them state absurdly wide or narrow age ranges. Some are generally absurd
and frivolous. Some are masseuses looking for business. Some are
18-year-olds looking for 55-year-old sugardaddies. Some are obviously
prostitutes. Many of them misstate their height (e.g., they list their
height at 6′, but say they are 5′5″ in their description). I’ve notified you
of many such ads, but you have failed to respond to any of my complaints.

It appears that you program your computers to automatically terminate male
members whenever a minimum number of female members complain, regardless of
the merit of the complaint. In my case, you terminated me at 8:57 PM (your
time) on Tuesday night, July 3, 2006 during a 4th of July weekend. I doubt
anyone was working at POF then, so it appears this process was done
automatically by computer.

I understand that you run this website with only two employees: you and your
wife. But such a low-cost business model is no excuse to discriminate
against male members and to deny them due process. If you don’t have the
resources to handle complaints fairly, you should simply advise complainants
to block mail from members they don’t like, as Matchdoctor.com does.
Complainants don’t have to read mail or profiles they don’t like. As soon as
they read something they don’t like, they need only move on to the next one.

Therefore, terminating male members, based merely upon the number of
popularity votes by female members, is unnecessarily retaliatory,
contemptuous, discriminatory and undemocratic. And it’s unlawful.

You break the law by discriminating against males, defrauding males, and by
knowingly and intentionally allowing fraudulent
ads of female members to remain posted.

You unnecessarily destroy relationships and destroy the investment of time
male members have made in your website. Ironically, you also destroy
investments your female members have made in relationships with male
members. Their male friends just suddenly disappear, without explanation.
You just leave them hanging. They are frustrated and saddened, and the men
appear to have abandoned them, without explanation. That’s de facto
defamation against male members.

And, obviously, your allegation that only 0.5% of your members are
terminated is false, given the circumstances of my termination. I used no
obscene language, nor did I post an obscene profile. And you can’t show why
my profile or written statements are unlawful. Therefore, if you terminate
men like me, you must terminate a much higher % of male members than you
state you do. That’s fraud, too.

And my style of communicating is nothing like the widespread unethical,
sexist, anti-social, psychotic, irrational behavior I have observed among
your female members. And those are the people who seek to retaliate against
men by clicking on the “abuse” button.

Your Terms of Use are stated so vaguely that they would allow you to
arbitrarily terminate any member for any reason. For example, anyone might
interpret any statement as “mean” or “offensive.” Anytime anyone expresses
an opinion about anything, someone will be offended.

The fact that the largest free dating website in the U.S. is allowed to post
and execute such sloppy, primitive, ignorant and unlawful Terms of Use is a
travesty.

The fact that you don’t charge a membership fee is irrelevant. You
monopolize your market, and you deny arbitrarily terminated male members any
viable alternative. You have already put such alternatives out of business,
or you have taken so much market share from them that they aren’t viable
alternatives. Ironically, you created your own argument against your
actions.

In addition to the above violations, you perpetrate racketeering, in
violation of U.S. Federal RICO Statutes.

Two of your competitors, Yahoo and Match.com are being sued by many parties
for perpetrating violations of law similar to yours.

Therefore, if you fail to reinstate my membership, by Wednesday, July 12,
2006, I will take the following legal action against you:

I will file complaints with the following government agencies:

1. All 50 U.S. State Attorneys General

2. The U.S. Attorney of Phoenix, AZ.

3. Various government agencies in Canada

4. The U.S. Federal Trade Commission

5. The U.S. Dept. of Justice.

6. The FBI.

Also, I will solicit similarly terminated former male members to participate
in a class-action lawsuit against you. I will be using the same attorneys
who are suing your competitors.

Time is of the essence. I am losing friends and romantic opportunities as
you read this, and my damages continue to mount.

Sincerely,

Shawn Mattson, XWallstreeter

this is some of the best link baiting I have seen in awhile

Whatever has happened he made the site and made some money, true or not about the 10k

I also made a site to get in contact with people, date,… all by myself called Me Tarzan You Jane Me Tarzan You Jane

And no I’m not a company, and yes I also started this to learn some aspx. I normally programmed asp but wanted to change to a newer more powerfull language.

The site has it’s share of members in Europe but the rest of the world can also follow now because everything is translated in english.

So guys and girls if you want some real honest site, no fake entries, blogs on the internet just real stuff then support me and sign yourself and your friends up. All free.

Not happy, then contact me via the site and let me now what bothers you and most of the time in the past after hearing something I also implemented new wishes or enhanced the site.

He’ll get plenty of traffic now. Even negative publicity is publicity.

PR stunt, PR stunt!

I know immediately that shoe is smart enough to know pof has the traffic to earn that. But I am assumming he is conspiring with markus (he propose the idea to markus maybe?).
