Testimonials

Dave has incredible insight into the online dating industry and into social networking. We look at our website, date.com, everyday, and we often loose sight of the big picture. Dave has helped us see the entire forest and not just focus on the trees. I recommend Dave to anyone thinking about entering this business, and his insight can help even the largest, most established companies.

- Meir Strahlberg, CEO Date.com

David was a huge help to me when I was creating my online dating site. I was new to the online dating industry and it was helpful to get an insider’s viewpoint regarding the types of questions to put in the profiles, fields and pages needed, as well as guidance on how to make the site more user friendly. I highly recommend him.

- Elena Albamonte, Lawyers in Love

David publishes *the* blog of the online dating industry. His writing has helped me tremendously during the planning and launch of my new company, IncrediblInc!
