Press Release Summary: How one International Online Personals Community is using Cutting Edge Webcam Technology to Erase Men’s Doubts and Fears
Press Release Body: Hot Russian Brides (www.hotrussianbrides.com), the premier international online dating and personals community geared toward uniting Western men and Eastern Women, has learned to leverage cutting edge communication technologies to their advantage in the battle to overcome existing social stigmas and geographical obstacles to grow their business & become one of the largest most successful international matchmaking sites.
Possibly more than any other niche in online dating, personals communities pioneering the international marriage and matchmaking space face the hardest scrutiny from net savvy surfers. Fueled by centuries old “mail order bride” myths, fears of “Boris and Natasha” bait and switch scams and the veil of mystery that surrounds any relationship formed across an ocean or across the globe, any company entering this market is starting out with the chips stacked against them.
Initially Hot Russian Brides sparked their efforts to legitimize their international female clients using their services by requiring passport documents to validate photos and personal information for each active profile. This did dispel any doubts that these women did exist, but the issue of how to assure male users they were talking to a gorgeous women in real time still lingered. They needed to prove to their users beyond a shadow of a doubt that the men were chatting with real live lovely ladies in real time, they needed to harness the power of live streaming video.
Webcam chat technology was gaining popularity among domestic dating sites in the West, but bringing this to the East would be an arduous task. Doing so required significant investment and direct cooperation from agencies across 11 time zones & spanning many countries of the FSU; upgrading existing bandwidth, hardware and software to support live streaming media. Working with their many international affiliates the site became one of the first international dating communities to deliver crisp video in real time to their members from across the globe. Users had been delivered an affordable method of concrete validation; they could see and interact with real women in real time- and do so at a fraction of the cost some domestic services charge. Launched in 2004, HotRussianBrides.com has quickly become one of the largest, technologically advanced and user friendly international personals communities online focused on fostering communication and building relationships between Russian women and Western men. Hot Russian Brides was one of the first online communities in the Russian Bride and International Dating and Marriage space to provide features such as passport photo and profile validation, live streaming video, and is currently the only company in the market to offer revolutionary contact management tools via their Black Book and Event Calendar dynamic interface. The widely popular and often imitated international personals community continues to grow its member base and strives to continue to offer new valuable services to their already thriving community.
