–Deleted–

I understand feeling frustrated, discouraged, like there’s no point.  I’ve started, and stopped after a month or two on other sites before.  Part of that was the money, adds up fast, like $30-40 a month, expensive, especially when you aren’t getting any conversations at all. Have to give it time here and hopefully you’ll meet someone on here or in person.  I have hope for this site and believe in this cause and project.  We need to change people’s mindsets so that people will make an account and not delete it, and if anything, just let it sit and forget about it till someone joins and messages them and they get a notification.  Unfortunately, there is no fast solution.  And the world has kind of been ruined in many ways.  But have to hold onto the good things and have some hope to keep going.  I know it is harder when you feel alone.  I’m going to try printing some fliers or cards for this website soon, when I can, to leave in different places.  And maybe that will help bring some new people this way.

I think that Our Culture Collapsed , like in the 1950’s , everyone was dating OR married and if you were alone , you virtually got spat on in the street or shouted at and insulted . There was social pressure to be in a breeding relationship . Nowadays , well from the 1990’s really , anyone can do anything and that includes being single . Perhaps a New Idea Is Needed ? We all appear too old to breed , too old to have children and we appear doomed to be alone until we die without progeny . As an idea , how about if we buy A Machine that is an artificial womb ? In preparation for this , I already have a name http://www.GeneWomb.com  :  WE could build a village of lonely failed old people who make a together attempt to make a new generation using new technology GeneWomb ? We would need to spend our money assets to make it happen . https://www.walesfarm.com/Track02.mp4 here is place we could build this vision , this video is 20 minutes long (I Think) so grab yourself a coffee before you press play . P.S. We would also have to prepare a legal review before we commenced . Than You and Best Wishes .

In reply to Fullion, we have made this website free to people located in the Republic of Ireland because of the low numbers of people on this site from there. We cannot afford to advertise in every country and, in reality, a lot of newspapers refuse to run our adverts or help us in any way.

Making a website free for specific countries is a double-edged sword. It may seem good at first, but then there is no money to advertise and get more members in.

Our website is free to use for people in Norway, but not Sweden. For some reason three Swedish news websites published our adverts, but Norwegian websites all refused to do so (except one who published our email complaining about this!).  We have more people from Sweden, than Norway on our site.

Canada and the Netherlands are the best represented countries on this website because we advertised in the Canadian newspaper Druthers and the Dutch news website NineForNews.nl . Druthers has a monthly distribution in the hundreds of thousands. NineForNews has a massive readership and I’m sure is easily into the hundreds of thousands.

The numbers may be low in Ireland, but they are much higher in other countries.

On a positive note, one member has paid for two adverts in Druthers, so hopefully we will be getting new members from Canada soon.

Spain and Portugal are poorly represented on this website, but the numbers are a bit better in Germany, France and Sweden.

In reply to OldBird and Fuilion, the number of people on this site, for a specific country, depends on several factors.

• Search engines showing our website for certain keywords.
• People knowing what keywords to use and the existence of our site. People have told me they didn’t even know dating sites for unvaccinated people existed before they saw our advert in The Light Paper.
• Alternative or truther news websites and printed newspapers allowing us to advertise in them at a reasonable cost.
• People donating money to us and taking out paid subscriptions so we have money to advertise.

I have contacted many natural health and alternative news websites asking them to mention our site. Most don’t reply – even the extremely well known ones. For some strange reason, three Swedish news websites published our adverts, but in the neighbouring country of Norway they all refused (well at least the ones we contacted).

Back in 2023, I advertised this website on a very well known alternative social media site. At the time it looked like they had no other serious advertisers other than people selling t-shirts! Instead of running our adverts continuously for a set period of one week, they charged us by impressions on an infinitely scrolling web page. In the early days of Internet advertising, charging by impressions was found to have major problems. Advertisers were charged if an advert only displayed for an absolutely tiny amount of time as it was being rapidly scrolled past. During our advertising campaign the number of daily registrations was unchanged.

UK White Rose and one journalist on BrandNewTube (now onevsp.com) mentioned our website for free and we clearly got more registrations shortly afterwards.

Recently one member on this website paid for two adverts for us in the Canadian newspaper Druthers, which has a monthly distribution in the hundreds of thousands.

If money wasn’t an issue we could continue advertising on Twitter (x.com) and get a slow, steady stream of new registrations.

I am frustrated that even in countries where we have hundreds of registered members, it is slow and next to impossible to raise enough money for one newspaper advert. The majority of people on this website create profiles, but do not take out paying subscriptions. This means we don’t have income to pay to advertise this site in turn on major social media sites. Worse still, we see a stream of registrations, from say Denmark when we target this country for adverts on Twitter, but the new people only stay for a while, lose patience and then delete their accounts. When we next have the inclination we start up our Danish adverts again. We sometimes think we are throwing money away! Except in specific cases we will let our online adverts expire on 16th May 2025. The only online adverts we will run after that will use geolocation (from IP addresses) to target specific cities and the areas around them. This will be done as favour for certain members.

Quite frankly if there is a will then it is quite possible to get more people on this site. But people have to want it and alternative newspapers and websites have to help us.

When we advertised on the Dutch news website NineForNews.nl we gained hundreds of new registrations from the Netherlands in only a matter of days. Everything is possible given the right motivation. If our fees were higher we could afford more advertising, but for now we prefer to have low prices and hope extra money is donated to us. The response we got from our two adverts in NineForNews still amazes me.

Another way is to cut out the expensive middleman and roadblock of online advertising. Download, print out our adverts and distribute them locally.
