Online dating more popular in UK than US?
February 23rd, 2007
A recent report has shown that 20% of British Internet users used dating sites in December last year compared to only 13% in America . The French, however, beat everyone, with 22% of their Internet users logging on for love.
December is traditionally a busy month on the sites, because the holiday season can make people feel pretty lonely. I wonder whether the figures would have been significantly different if the research had been done in a different month. Either way, if you account for the fact that not all Internet users are single, it emerges that online dating has now become pretty much standard in the UK. About time, too.

I don’t think so. Most american singles are using online dating site. Everyone can see more people from US than from UK. Check match.com, cupid.com, millionairecupid.com, and many more sites, you will find much more users are from US.
