Here at WLD we like to pride ourselves at having a pretty special bunch of people working for us, and here is the proof:

Not only has our Technical Operations Manager, Ian Winter, been working exceptionally hard getting our new email delivery system up and running but he has also found the time to throw himself out of a plane at 12,500 feet!

Ian completed the skydive at Weston on the Green on Saturday 28th June to raise money for Diabetes UK. Ian is diabetic himself, so decided it was a very appropriate charity to support.

Here is what Ian had to say about the experience:

“The whole day was awesome and i would definitely do it again. I’m really pleased that I raised so much money for the charity and want to thank everyone who’s donated for their generosity.”

A massive congratulations for his achievement. Well done Ian!

We are very pleased to welcome Mike Hills on board, a new partner to WhiteLabelDating.com.

Mike already owns an existing online business, Guide4.  He was searching for a way to expand, and came across WLD.  Once realising that WLD could offer everything he needed, he worked closely with his account manager, quickly setting up a personal portfolio of 6 sites.  His sites include Guide4Dating.co.uk, Guide4Dating.info, and Guide4Personals.com.  He also has one regional site, DyfedDating.co.uk.

Mike also owns ChildSponsors.org, a website that aids individuals in sponsoring children that may be suffering due to hunger, war or abuse.

The revenue created by Mike’s 6 dating sites will be used to pay all administration fees for ChildSponsor.org, as well as providing ay extra donations when it can.  We think this is a fantastic idea, and are very pleased to be hosting the dating sites for Mike.

We are very pleased to announce the launch of a new and improved email delivery system across our entire WLD platform.

As we all know, ensuring that the facilities on our application are as instant and as user friendly as possible is top priority. So, our lovely development team here at WLD was set the task of improving email deliverability, and they certainly have done that!

The system is now delivering 1000 emails per minute, averaging at 60,000 every hour. This is an incredible 10 times more emails than before!

This fantastic improvement is sure to keep our members very happy, which is sure to contribute to those all important record member retention rates.

We are very pleased to announce the launch of MatchMeUp.co.uk on behalf of Stuart Criddle.

Stuart initially launched the site on a competitor platform, but after pitiful sign up and conversion rates and a failed advertising campaign, he decided to look elsewhere.

WLD offered everything he wanted, and the site has now been relaunched on our general network.  After the smooth transition of his existing site to WLD, Stuart now plans to launch a site on each of WLD’s niche networks, including Adult and Over 50’s……so watch this space!!

We are pleased to announce the launch of LoveNoteDating.com on behalf of an existing partner of WLD, who already owns SoManySingles.com on the WLD platform.

SoManySingles.com acts as a main splash page to a trio of niche sites targeting general, mature and adult dating, and is a really innovative way of capturing a larger audience using just one site.

LoveNoteDating is a really attractive site and is a great addition to our partner’s personal portfolio of sites that are all hosted by WhiteLabelDating.com. 

We are pleased to announce the launch of Mates4Dates.co.uk on behalf of Casper Craven.

Casper initially launched the site as a standalone site, however, he quickly noticed that conversion rates on his sites were poor, and that the general day to day running of the site was stealing away too much of his free time.

After coming into contact with WLD he realised the benefits of running his site on a shared database and was relieved to let someone else take care of the hosting and back end support.  The site has now been redesigned and looks fantastic.

Casper is really happy with it too:-

“The team at WLD have been very helpful in guiding me through the set up process and getting the Mates4Dates online agency live on the web - the process was a lot simpler, easier and quicker than i had expected!”

We are pleased to welcome PlantsReunited.co.uk to the WLD platform, another success story from Internet World 2008.

The site is dedicated towards bringing an online community of keen gardeners together, whilst providing a facility where they can buy, swap and sell anything from seeds to equipment.

James Arrowsmith, the owner of the site, met the WLD team at Internet World, and instantly recognised an opportunity to create a secondary revenue stream from his existing database of members.  By creating a simple link from his main homepage, members can now ‘Look for Friendship’ by gaining access to not only other keen gardeners, but the entire WLD platform.

ForgetDinner.co.uk has now gone live with WLD.  The site is owned by Gavin Griffith, who originally set up the site on another white label platform provider.  However, after learning about the great results achieved by some of WLD’s existing partners, he swiftly moved his site over to the WLD platform.

Although the site URL remains the same, the site is now sporting a fantastic new design, and we are positive that Gavin will now see the great results that he has been after.

We are very pleased to announce the launch of FootlooseDating.co.uk on the WLD platform.

The site is specifically targeted at over 35’s dating, and has been set up by two sisters, Eleanor Selley and Natalie Crosland. The pair joined the WLD team along with many of our existing partners at an evening dinner event we held on the first night of Internet World this year.

Inspired by many other successful partners that joined us on the night, the sisters have now launched their own site and we are delighted to welcome Footloose.co.uk to our portfolio.

We are pleased to announce that we have now gone into partnership with Iovation, a provider of device reputation for managing online fraud.

The technology that exposes and prevents fraudulent activity online was integrated into the WLD system 6 weeks ago, and has already blocked over 1200 attempted account creations.

Reducing fraudulent activity not only created a safer, happier environment for our members, but also allows our customer support team to focus more of their time on dealing with genuine member queries for technical issues. This results in a faster response rate to questions, which all contributes to great member retention rates across the entire WLD platform.
