Being #1

by Andrew

A huge congrats goes out to Markus Frind creator and owner of Plentyoffish –

“VANCOUVER, Canada, July 29 /PRNewswire/ — The latest comScore Media Metrix numbers now rank the free dating site Plentyoffish.com as the leading dating site in both North America (U.S.A. + Canada) and the United Kingdom.”

Take a look at his competition, they are spending millions of dollars a month on advertising. If they stop spending, no one would come close to touching Plentyoffish.

Its not all fun and games, Markus blogged “This morning I spent 30 minutes on the Phone with someone from the US Department of Justices Antitrust division.”

Webpublishing Blog probably over focused on Plentyoffish. Why? Because I loved the business model. Low overhead, simplification, automation, a hideous design to slide under the radar. To this day I have applied those basic concepts to nearly every one of my projects — and its paid off.

Unrelated, but yeah, this blog is officially dead. Though I reserve the right to post here if something interesting comes up.
