Reputation management from theDateScoop

Email This Entry

Posted by Dave Evans

Bugaboo Incorporated announced today the launch of a new web site that enables individuals to share feedback on people they have met through an online dating service. The site, called theDateScoop.com, is believed to be the first dedicated as a dater feedback forum and is available for viewing at thedatescoop.com.

This feedback will include the chance to reveal an assessment regarding the honesty of an online profile. Additionally, members may express a number of other opinions about their date, including positive feedback, fun facts, and humorous comments. Members may also pay for additional services, including the ability to view details from the feedback database on themselves and other online daters. Like eCRUSH and a few others.

Instead of paying for a subscription that gives you access to services for a limited time, their credit system allows you to spend them whenever you like. 15 Credits for $ 7.95, Unlimited/6 Months for $32.95.

There are a lot of issues with these types of services. Disgruntled dates, ever-changing screen names, multiple memberships to several dating sites, etc. The real cellar-dwellers will always be able to foil these services, it remains to be seen if they can get enough traction where people will fill out post-date forms. Reputation management is the next big thing in online dating, prepare for an onslaught of services catering to this niche.
