(PRWEB) October 17, 2005 -- Ticonderoga Ventures, Inc. announces the seventh Internet Dating Conference, to be held on February 1-2, 2006 in Miami at the Wyndham Miami Beach Resort.

Online personals, which includes both online dating and social networking, continues to be one of the fastest growing online businesses.

The 7th Convention and Conference will focus on management, technology and marketing for the industry. Mobile dating, cultural marketing, event planning, metrics, advertising strategies and software will be discussed at this event. The Miami event will also have a panel session with several market analysts to discuss and debate the actual market size of the e-dating industry.

Attending the event will be senior executives from all aspects of the internet dating industry and social networking industry, as well as marketing firms, mobile telecommunication firms, software companies, affiliate managers, affiliates of singles related sites and entrepreneurs.

Advertising strategies would be interesting if it's not the usual SEO stuff. I would scratch advertising strategies and create an entire conference track on Marketing, which is a much better meta-topic for most dating site marketers.

Mobile is still too early, but once you show up, you need to continue to establish yourself in the marketplace until it becomes something average daters are interested in.

I'm not sure how useful the Event Planning session is going to be ever since most dating sites featuring events dropped them over the last 12 months.

The software track could be useful if they get a few of the vendors to talk about the white-label dating site market. I get lots of email from people wondering which system is right for their site.

Full press release.
