Valentine pressure drives search for Match.com coupon codes

  • Match.com coupon codes top the list of most highly searched for deals in the week before Valentine's Day

New York, February 13 2013MyCouponComparison.com, the first coupon comparison site to aggregate all US coupon, daily deal and cash back sites has announced that the most searched for online deal in the US during the week leading up to Valentine's Day was for Match.com, the online dating site. A record 241,722 searches were recorded for the Match.com deal, followed by 209,111 searches for ProFlowers deals.

Dominic Yacoubian, CEO, MyCouponComparison.com believes the significant surge in searches for Match.com coupon codes can be attributed to the fact that the 43% of the US population who are single are feeling pressured to find a partner at this time of year and that despite the rising popularity of online dating amongst US citizens – each month roughly 1 in 10 Americans look for a date online - in a tough economic climate, paying full price for a service that can’t guarantee a date, is a luxury.

"We were pretty surprised in the MyCouponComparison offices when we saw that Match.com deals were the most coveted in the US during the week before Valentine's Day" comments Dominic Yacoubian, CEO, MyCouponComparison.com. "We expected brands more traditionally associated with the day that glamorizes romantic love - like chocolate, flower and lingerie retailers - to be fighting for the number one spot. The result suggests that single Americans are not only feeling fed-up with being alone at this time of year, they are also feeling cash-strapped so are looking for deals for online dating services, rather than paying full price."
