SinglesOver50 reports Senior Citizens are
flocking to the Internet for love
LAS VEGAS, Nev./EWORLDWIRE/Feb. 12, 2008 --- Valentine's Day
has been hi-tech for a while, but now senior
citizens are embracing technology to find
love online. The Website,
http://www.SinglesOver50.com, helps these
folks meet up and make their match.
SinglesOver50.com Principal Hal Meyer
explained: "Online communication, not
e-commerce, is the huge new trend. Social
networking is really taking off among all
age groups, but especially among seniors.
"It
is estimated that 50 million adults over the
age of 50 have Internet access, and online
dating is a natural for them as many are
getting divorced and re-starting their
dating and social lives. Senior citizens are
flocking to the net, and many of them are
interested in online romance."
Meyer continued: "Women in particular are
gaining in online influence. Studies also
show that women are achieving parity with
men in terms of the online population. This
wasn't always the case.
:Five
years ago, there were fifty percent more men
online than women. But now, the Internet has
become much more mainstream and women feel
more comfortable with the technology, and
each sex is using the net in roughly the
same numbers."
SinglesOver50.com provides an easy solution,
with free signup and other user friendly
features. SinglesOver50.com is an affiliate
of one of the largest dating networks in the
world. The Web site clearly explains its
many features, and the free signup is only a
one-page form.
He concluded: "Analysts have examined the
demographics of baby boomers and have found
that a 'silver tsunami' has already started.
The baby boomer generation is the
healthiest, wealthiest and most wired in the
history of our country.
"A surprising number have Mac, laptop and
mobile devices. These senior singles have
shown a strong interest in meeting others
online, to explore friendship and romance.
Companionship
is a basic human instinct, and we believe
the confluence of these above factors is
producing something of social significance."
