Markus Frind is the owner of a website called Plenty of Fish – the largest dating site in the world.
His website is free for everybody – he uses Google Adsense ads to pay for hosting and makes enough to keep the site running. In fact – Plenty of Fish makes about 1 million dollars a month just from Adsense advertising. In addition to that, the good news is that he doesn’t have to share the money with anyone – he is the only person working for his website (his girlfriend also helps out).
3 years ago – in 2006 – he was already making over 10 000 dollars per day just with Adsense. Here is his Google Adsense check for 901 733 Canadian dollars (735 567 US dollars)
The check is for only 1 month and is the largest known Google Adsense check ever seen.
The Website Itself
To tell you the truth – Plenty of Fish itself is a rather basic website that doesn’t look too good. Since I don’t know a lot about online dating I went to ZoomOnDating.com and checked out some other dating sites – I have to tell you that Plenty of Fish was probably the worst looking! But it’s also the largest in the world and free – so you really can’t argue with that. They must be doing the important stuff right!

I do follow Markus Frind WordPress blog. His story is quite inspirational.
I saw his interview recently. Need to have some luck too.
I reckoned the software was going to end up being many unexciting older content, but it really rewarded regarding great time period. I’ll blog post a website to this very internet page on great blog site. I know my best guests will get which invaluable.
nice piece one could a lot of amazon and free google products at their disposal.
It’s uniquely inspirational. Anybody can do more than him only if one can be focused.
I think one of the reason markus was able to make millions from his website because he was a computer wiz. He made the website load insanely faster than any other dating site, not to mention all the SEO which is done.
