WHAT a month we have just survived! The events that happened during these four weeks have shaken the entire world: a crashing plane, an erupting volcano, paralyzed air traffic, an earthquake in Asia. The natural disasters made people stop and think about their lives more carefully. However, the humanity was not prevented from looking for love and spreading affection in spite of whatever. We know how much the warmest feelings are important for our members and with care about them, we decided to give them an opportunity to look for their soul mates for FREE. What that means is that now we have a

Free Portal

This New portal is built around the normal dating portal with one major difference: members can send unlimited emails and cards. For the time being we are promoting around 20 niche sites in the way of rotated banners covering all the portals on our system, this will give many more available dating sites to suit the visitors’ needs and interests and thus leading to increased chances of upgrading. In the future we are planning to implement Google adds third party banner programs and sell relevant advertising banner space. Banner click and sales upgrades will show on your admin and all revenue is a clean 50-50 split.

As some of you might be aware, a couple of companies reportedly make very large sums of revenue with free dating. WDP is confident there’s still room in this largely untapped market just waiting to be exploited by Partners using our system.
We are adding the free portal to your admin as you are reading this article. The portal will be ready for you to build template sites due in the summer months. All the templates will have the normal partner admin functions and member features. So please feel free to customise your front pages to suit your needs.

Our creativity does not have borders! This month we are happy to present three more

Templates

They are very appealing, young and bright. We are trying to take into account your desires on what you would like to see on our templates. So the new ones turned out to be pretty lively and up-to-date. Please take a moment to check them out. There might be one that is exactly right for your niche.

Adult portal	Gay portal

If you like one of them, please feel free to replace the old design with a new one. You can do so through the Color Scheme option in your Partner admin. Just select the template you like and save it for your site. Please note that these changes can be performed only under the WYSIWYG editor in the Site Settings.

We know how hard you are working. And that there is nothing better than rewards for your hard work! With this idea in mind we have improved our

Commission Structure

The new plan is based on that the harder you work the more commissions you receive - up to 100 %!!! We decided to split the monthly revenue section into more subsections with more commission percentage for every section. You can achieve higher pay easier than before: you can earn 80-90 % commissions much easier with the new plan. We hope that this approach will boost your motivation to achieve a greater number of paying members. The new and improved structure is very fair and made with our partners’ best in mind.

With all this news, we are ready to step over the threshold of April and enjoy the beautiful and blossomy month of May. Please do not forget to share your views with us on our forum http://forum.world-dating-partners.com/. It is very important for us that you stay in touch!

All the best from the WDP team.

We are meeting spring 2010 with new offers for you and your members to turn this exciting time into the efficient period of your business.

There is nothing better in this field than a customer focused approach which has been carried out this time through adding a new payment option. Starting from April members from Canada, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Norway, Poland, Russia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, United Kingdom, and United States will be able to purchase the service using their mobiles. The new SMS payment allows your customers to buy a 3-day Gold membership by simply sending a text message with a short code.

To meet the requirements of your market we have been adding new niche templates that are ready to use right now! (April’s new templates)

Dating portal:

Single Parents	Asian Dating portal

Adult Portal:

European swingers template	Suggardaddies

Once you liked one of them, please feel free to replace the old design with a new one. You can do it through the Color Scheme option in your Partner admin. Just select the template you like and save it for your site. Please note, these changes can be performed only under the WYSIVYG editor in the Site Settings

Every new design comes with 10 new color schemes for the internal pages. You will certainly find something that suits your site and makes it unique for your audience. Especially if you take the opportunity to upload internal page headers.

Since our last newsletter we have been receiving your feedbacks on the new headers. We are happy to know that you liked this tool and found it easy to use. We published the post on our forum for not only to remind how to handle the headers for all who joined us after the last newsletter release but also to let you show the results of your hard work. We are sure, you have a lot to brag about!

http://forum.world-dating-partners.com/index.php?showtopic=20631

Just a quick reminder on how to replace/remove the banners on the internal pages. Before removing please think of the use they bring to you – the banners are used for the cross promotion between the WDP portals. Many of your members will be happy to join two portals: Dating and Adult and wherever they pay you will get the commissions.

Once you decided to remove the banners from the /home.do page please go to the Content Management option and select the folder Internal Site Content where you will find two files

/static/internal_site_content/right_banner_mycrowd.do

and

/static/internal_site_content/left_banner_mycrowd.do

If you need to just remove the banners and leave a blank space, you need to use the sign   instead of our banners codes.

Then the banners will be changed or removed. This change has to be approved our end, so please do not forget to drop us a line with your site URL so we could make this change live on your site.

Online support

We are launching an online support line from April via Skype (username is wdp_help_line) where we will be happy to answer your questions from 6 am to 8pm GMT.

We would like to invite all the new partners who have joined WDP this year to our forum.

Welcome to our happy team and we look forward to getting to know you and your opinion on the system.

Thank you for your time, as always, it is much appreciated.

All the best from the WDP team.

Exciting times ahead to keep us all occupied during the coming year. January has been a busy start to the year 2010, with new updates being added to our system. You may have already noticed some changes creeping in to your admin area - the design of the Partner admin was changed and we will keep working to making it more and more user friendly.

Let’s take a look at the other changes that happened to the admin recently.

New templates

We have started adding the new templates for the portals and niches that you requested. Many partners quickly took up promoting these new templates and have already added a revenue stream to their partner accounts.

Dating portal:

Pet Lovers	European Dating	Romantic Dating
Senior Dating 55+		Senior Love

Adult Portal:

Black & Red	Fetish Dating	Erotic

The templates are easy to use even for those who are not familiar with the HTML. The WYSIVYG editor allows you to change blocks without breaking the design, to replace blocks with pictures and even to select one of several pictures. Later, we will be posting manuals to the forum for each template. The manuals will provide step-by-step instructions on how to customize the design and make it close to your particular niche. Even if you know nothing about HTML you will be able to make all the necessary changes. Nothing is difficult any more!

New color schemes for inside pages

Customizing is getting more exiting now, since 10 new color schemes for each portal were created and added to new templates. You will certainly find something that matches your very site and makes it unique for your audience.

Changing headers on the inside pages

To make your site get a really unique look is very easy with a new tool that allows replacing the standard headers to those of your own! How to do this? Please follow five steps below:

1. The standard size of the header is width 764px length 105px
- create the picture of the size above

2. Upload the picture to your site through the Files Management option and save the link that our system gives you.

3. Go to the Content Management option and select the folder ‘Internal Site Content’

4. Select the file ‘/static/internal_site_content/head_bar.do’ and click the pencil (for editting ). Click the ‘Save’ button to save the existing changes.

5. Insert the link to your picture into the coding and save the changes you have just made.

Do not worry if you make a mistake and something goes wrong, you can restore the previous version and start again.

Here is the code you may use:

<!– Custom Head Bar Begin –>
<div id=”headerBg” style=”background:url(’http://singlescrowd.com/
additional/images/header.jpg’) !important;”>
{%headerMacro::external%}
{%mainMenuMacro::icons%}
<div id=”langs”>
<div id=”langBar”>
{%switchLocaleMacro%}
</div></div></div>
<!– Custom Head Bar End–>

The link from the Files Management option is singlescrowd.com/additional/images/header.jpg’

Keep an eye on the forum where we are adding more different manuals.

Newsletter tools

We have added several options for you to use this tool more sufficiently:

1.’View’ - now you are able to read sent newsletters

2. ‘Edit’ - if your newsletter was rejected by our moderators, you can go back to it and correct it if necessary and then resend it.

3. ‘Targets’ – see the member criteria that you selected while sending the newsletter.

4. ‘Created’ – here you can check the number of the members who received your newsletter.

All the best from the WDP team.

We are glad to wish you a happy New Year!

The coming December Newsletter 2009year promises to be really good for all the WDP partners.

New Admin Panel

We are launching a new version of the Partner Administrative interface (Admin Panel) where new tools will be added. First and foremost, we have improved the design and reorganized it according to your comments, in order to make it as user-friendly as possible.

New Tools

We also believe you will find the new tools very useful, especially the possibility to integrate your own headers into all the pages of your site. From January you will be able to make your site really unique and more tailored to your members and traffic. Along with the new internal header tools we have created more internal page color schemes for you to choose from, 10 to start with and more to come.

New Templates

If you are not into editing designs and colors, then you will be able to use one of the 8 new templates coming in January. Different niches, ages and countries to start with and more to come over the following year.

We wish you good health and good wealth for the New Year!
