2. How to search resources?
Ⅰ. Use different keywords to find
resources
It is important to compile words related to
your project as many as possible. Use
keywords or expressions to find more
related websites. Here is the url:
https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordSandbox (save
it as your browser favorite)
4. Ⅱ. Find resources at different search engines: Google,
Yahoo, Alexa and Bing, etc. to find quality affiliate
partners who already have at least one dating related
site. Sometimes, they are willing to build a private label
dating site also. We may get different search results.
1. For Yahoo, we can search by countries of choice. Here are the
steps:
1. Go to Yahoo homepage, click “ International” link at the bottom.

match it with match, dating, date, love, etc. Search who.is or
godaddy, you will find that some of these domains are parking.

9. How to contact webmasters?
Firstly, we must find webmaster's contact information.
1. Some sites do not show the obvious email address, there is
only a feedback form to fill. We could also find out the hidden
email address as the screen shots below.

godaddy, alexa toolbar or
networksolutions.com/whois/index.jhtml to find webmaster's
contact info. including the first name and email address.

Use different email addresses to send invitation mails. Yahoo is
more strict with our email sending. You may choose Gmail.
Here are some effective email subjects
• Partner with xxx.com
• Advertise on xxx.com
• Strategic partnership with xxx.com required
• Link exchange with xxx.com
• Sponsored Ad Inquiry about xxx.com
• Sponsorship with xxx.com
• Partnership request with xxx.com

11. Other useful tips
Ⅰ. Keep an close eye on succeeded partners. Inform partners who
promote our site well, once we have special commission program.
They will be glad and thank your kindness.
Ⅱ. Take webmaster's response seriously and deal with it ASAP.
Good customer services may encourage the partner to invite his
webmaster friends to join our affiliate.
Ⅲ. Remind the webmasters again if there is no response after they
show interest in cooperating with us.
Ⅳ. Install Yahoo messenger, MSN messenger and ICQ. If the
webmaster's email address is xxx@yahoo.com, add his email
address into your Yahoo messenger list. If xxx@aol.com, add it
AIM. Online chat maybe the best way to persuade partners.
