Online dating in Kenya has a brand new face with the launch of KenyanCupid.com. Operated by Cupid Media, a leading online dating network, KenyanCupid.com is a niche dating site designed to bring together Kenyan singles in search of long term, committed relationships.
The Cupid Media network already operates 34 other niche dating sites, KenyanCupid.com being the 35th. Is there room for another dating site?
“On surveying our large African dating site, AfroIntroductions.com, we found a large number of Kenyan singles much preferred a uniquely Kenyan site that allowed them to easily find partners closer to them. We realised there was a need for a serious, exclusively Kenyan dating site and Kenyan Cupid was born to fill this gap,” said Jason Johnson, Marketing Manager at Cupid Media.
The company is well aware of the negative connotations online dating has in Kenya and it hopes to bust some myths with KenyanCupid.com. With the tagline “Serious Kenyan Dating and Relationships”, it is clear this site is designed to appeal to Kenyan men and women who are seriously invested in finding a partner.
“There is a changing attitude towards online dating in Kenya and across the world. Sites like KenyanCupid.com are distinctly different from other social media sites and offer members the opportunity to interact with like-minded, serious Kenyan women and men in a safe and secure environment,”concluded Johnson.
For the average, time-poor, overworked Kenyan man or woman with increasingly limited opportunities to meet a partner offline, creating a profile on KenyanCupid.com may well worth be looking into.
