Aussie Dating Site Puts Your Safety First

Our Recent Press Release Follows:

Australian dating site, http://www.DatingDownUnder.com.au has taken a stance and is putting your safety first when it comes to internet dating.

The online dating industry is very lucrative.  And just as is the case in any industry, where there is money to be made, there are shonky operators who try to take advantage and “get rich quick”.  Unfortunately, when this happens in the dating industry, the price at the very least is your potential of a successful date, and in the worst case, its your safety.

In a response to this, the operators of Dating Down Under have put together a free website which specifically highlights the two main risks of internet dating:

• Risks to your person (usually women face this risk)
• Risks to your property (usually men face this risk)

Having observed many instances where these risks play out into dating disasters, they offer many resources which help you avoid them, so your dating experience is as safe and successful as it possibly can be.  Examples of this include analysing and reviewing the offerings of many online dating sites (http://www.datingdownunder.com.au/dating%20site%20reviews.htm), the provision of tips and advice in a growing library of free articles (http://www.datingdownunder.com.au/Free%20Dating%20Articles.htm), reviews of dating books and a blog containing many quick fire tips.  All of this is free to visitors of the website.

“We believe too many shortcuts are being taken in online dating” says Damian Papworth of Dating Down Under.  “Too many dating site operators do not properly verify their subscriber base and therefore they do not protect their customers.”  This is one of the reasons why you hear so many stories of women falling foul of predatory men and so many stories of men, spending all their money on women who lure them to pay per view sites, without ever intending to meet them.

“Online dating can be a wonderful experience if it is done properly.”, explains Mr Papworth. “The good sites really provide a great service in bringing like minded people together, in a world where meeting people romantically seems to be getting harder everyday”.  And this is what http://www.DatingDownUnder.com.au is all about.  Sorting the wheat from the chaff to bring a bit of sanity back to an industry which sometimes spirals off the rails.
