Many consumers are seeking free dating services to beat the recession blues, according to one of the UK's leading online dating sites, freedating247.com. Since the 2008 first quarter, site traffic has increased by nearly 50%.

In an interview with Bright Productions Ltd directors Andy Blundell and Jon Hayes, Jon said, "more people then ever are using dating sites, like free dating 24/7 to find love online. Fortunate timing has also boosted our position. The dating sites recent makeover has coincided with consumers becoming increasingly penny conscious in their leisure time choices."

Andy went on to say, "I knew the website was getting busier, but I was taken aback when I reviewed our statistics for the first quarter. When I compared the traffic with the first quarter of last year we found the number of unique visits have gone up by 43%, and new sign-ups have risen by 38%. We have also seen a very healthy increase in return visits, the number of page views per visit and the average time spent on the site. Another positive for us is that the bounce rate has gone down, which can be linked to the new look and increased user friendliness of the website."

Jon was also able to report that they had received positive feedback from both new and existing users of the site. He went on to add, "One of the concerns of users of free dating websites has always been security issues. We now have a super efficient method to prevent Spam as well as a new email validation system; this has raised the site's security to an unprecedented level, a vital factor in customer satisfaction levels. We always have to bear in mind that we are dealing with people's personal lives so our members have to know they can trust us 100%. We are totally committed to ensuring that all those signing up to our free dating website are genuine individuals."

Bright Productions believe that the key to their recent success has been the simplification of the dating sites design, easier navigation and a one step easy sign-up. Jon added, "To be a really competitive online dating website you have to have a substantial membership base. Now, wherever you live in the UK, whatever your interests are, chances are you'll be able to find true love with Freedating247.com"
