Congrats! No wait, fuck you! I never had a profitable campaign running on your network! Give me a % of that 575 million.

Seriously? It was easy to make 1-2k/day on pof a few years ago..

Well I wish someone told me that. I didn't make shit selling my bible covers...

i think he got shortchanged. 2014 revenue was estimated at $100m. margins are presumably huge.

At least it's a tech startup (if I can even call it that, POF started years ago) generating actual revenue and not dependent on VC funding. Sure beats a flavor-of-the-month app with a 100,000x valuation and tremendous burn rate.

See boys you can make hundreds of millions with a good idea and a poorly coded PHP site.

Now get back to work.

I definitely consider POF a tech startup, hell I considered porn sites back in the 90s tech startups.
