Global Personals

Global Personals have been operating social discovery websites for almost a decade to date. Beginning life in 2003, Global Personals have gone from strength to strength and now execute over 10,000 different social sites. Global Personals members can sign up to sites geared towards helping them find romance, friendship or all manner of niche dating opportunities. The diverse range of sites available and the physical scope of the operation, which encompasses over two thirds of the planet, keep Global Personals ahead of the game. As testament to their success Global Personals have received numerous industry awards over the past ten years.

The iDate awards are held annually in Las Vegas and are the recognised industry awards for online dating and social discovery services. Global Personals have won more iDate awards than any other company to date, including three years running of recognition as the Best Software Provider for WhiteLabelDating.com in 2010, 2011 and 2012, and Best Affiliate Program in 2011. In 2010 Global Personals were named Digital Business of the Year at the Digital Entrepreneur Awards, a ceremony which celebrates one of the fastest growing global industries. Global Personals have been ranked by Deloitte in both the UK Technology Fast 50 in 2010 and 2011 and the Technology Fast 500 EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa) in 2010, 2011 and 2012.

Already in 2013 the accolades have been pouring in. Global Personals have so far been named One to Watch in the Sunday Times Best Companies list, been included in the Sunday Times Profit track 100 and reached the finals of the Red Herring Top 100 Europe Awards. The Global Personals in-house software program WhiteLabelDating.com narrowly missed a fourth year running as the Best Software Provider at the iDate Awards in January, achieving 25.4% of the vote to come in a close second. With over twenty million members and thousands of new users signing up every day, not to mention annual profits exceeding £40 million, Global Personals look set to maintain their position as market leaders within the social discovery industry as 2013 progresses.
