Even better, anything confined to specific locales and cities?
My friend I came up with the idea of a dating site based on what your fashion sense is - t-shirts/casual personalities being more compatible.
Dancers: (per city) They've probably seen each other at clubs. Should at least peak people's curiosity.
Geek/gaming: Gender's pretty even in online gaming these days. God knows they could use the help :-)
Specific sports: Martial arts, running, bicycling, etc. Gives people more to talk about than usual. E.g. Okinawan Karate or Trek bicycles.
hmmm...I think the problem with the big niches is they tend to be either heavily female or heavily male. My friend I came up with the idea of a dating site based on what your fashion sense is - t-shirts/casual personalities being more compatible.
The ratio of active, real men:women for online dating is 10:1 or sometimes 100:1. So targeting heavily female niches is fine. The men will find it.
Many people are shy/embarrassed about their (our) chaste status and being able to jump that hurdle before you even meet could be a big plus.
It could be seen as trawling the shallow end of the genepool, but many people believe this of dating sites in general.

With this type of thing heavily female is not a problem -- if you get the women, the men will come. It's why OKCupid's design is pink. The ratio of active, real men:women for online dating is 10:1 or sometimes 100:1. So targeting heavily female niches is fine. The men will find it.
