From our front-page news:
I first learned about PlentyOfFish last year when a friend passed me a link. It was an impressive read. One man, one server, and $10,000 per day ($3.5m/y). It's hard to not feel a bit envious. It turns out the site is still growing rapidly with over 500,000 unique logins per day, and Markus, the man behind the site, expects $10+ million per year earnings next year. Not bad for a site created and wholly run by a single man!

I caught up with Markus today via email and asked how the business is doing now. He didn't want to get specific about earnings, but he said that POF will earn $10 Million + next year (which puts it at around $30k per day). So just in earnings, POF has grown rapidly over the past year or so. As well as Adsense, income now comes from banner ads and affiliate marketing. A May Wall St Journal article has a good general profile of Markus and his company.
