Check out <a href="http://DateandRate.com" rel="nofollow">DateandRate.com</a> just started looks way better than them, probably doesnt make as much money. But im willing to bet in 2 years theyll be bigger than <a href="http://PlentyofFish.com" rel="nofollow">PlentyofFish.com</a>. The fact of the matter is it does matter how your website looks and how its designed. Im sure their income comes from some job or old money that some guy feels like spending on his website. Its all about outcome of advertising dollars and the competition, free dating sites??? How many of them are really out there? I can tell you not alot.. and definitely alot of them arent like the site I told you <a href="http://about%28DateandRate.com" rel="nofollow">about(DateandRate.com</a>) so it leaves for little competition until recently. All I have to say is I predict this site will expand faster then POF has thus far with the same amount of time This article is ridiculous the claim that because something is ugly it does well.

This is complete crap. It is the content and usefulness that pulls the users in. Having a great design is not going to deter users.
