Internet Dating Statistics- and 50+ facts |
|
I thought these statistics would be of interest to those 50+ and in the internet dating scene:
*Two-thirds of adults between the ages of 50-64 use the Internet (Burst! Media, 2006).
In their quest for love and companionship, computer users aged 55+, accounted for 16.7% of all traffic to on-line personal sites (Internet research firm, Nielsen/NetRatings, 2006).
*The 50+ segment is the fastest growing group of subscribers for on-line dating (Lehman Brothers Equity Research, February 2007).
*Women and men 50+ are using on-line dating and relationship websites because the stigma of an on-line personal ad is fading, and their adult children are leading them to on-line dating (AARP, December 2005).
