Hello all!
I am doing a small market research about what people are looking for in an Internet dating service. I would really appreciate it if you could take 5 minutes of your time and give some short answers to below questions. It does not matter if you have or haven't used an online dating service before.
Thanks in advance!
1. What is the maximum amount of time you would like to spend on filling out your profile?
2. Is it important for you to be able to describe yourself in your own words in your profile? And is it important for you to read about how a potential partner describes him/herself in a profile?
3. Please indicate whether it is important for you to see the following information in a potential partner’s profile (please answer yes or no):
a. Relationship type he/she is looking for
b. Information about his/her looks
c. Information about his/her interests

m. Information about his/her daily diet
n. Information about his/her sports and exercise habits
o. Information about his/her relationship status (never married, divorced, etc)
p. Information about children (does he/she have/want them)
4. Do you like to know as much as possible about a potential partner on a dating site before contacting him/her? Or are you ok with finding out a lot of things later?
5. Do you know how to use WAP (=Internet on your mobile phone)?
6. Would you be interested in remote access to a dating service via WAP, meaning that you can look at profiles, read and send messages on your mobile phone?
Please also answer the following questions:
7. What is your nationality?
8. What is your sex?
9. What is your age?
Thank you!
