You ever feel like you're just throwing money at your dating ad campaigns and hoping something sticks?
Yeah, that was me.
I’d been promoting a niche dating platform for months, testing different creatives, adjusting my bids, switching networks—and still, I was getting terrible click-through rates and nearly zero conversions. I knew there were people out there interested in what I was promoting. I just wasn’t reaching them the right way.
Here’s the Pain Point:
Finding high-converting audiences for dating ads isn’t just about choosing the right ad format or writing clever copy. It’s about where you’re showing your ads. Most big-name ad networks were either super restrictive with dating content or insanely competitive. I’d get some impressions, sure, but my budget would be gone before I saw any real traction.
The worst part? I had no idea who was even seeing my ads. It felt like shouting into a void and waiting for love letters that never came.
What I Tried (and What Actually Helped):
I joined a few marketing forums to see what others were doing. Some folks were all-in on paid social. Others swore by niche ad networks. So, I tried both. Facebook flagged half my ads. Google limited my reach. And native networks? Decent traffic—but low intent.
Then one night (scrolling Reddit at 1 AM, naturally), I came across someone talking about how intent-based dating ad audiences were easier to find through platforms that didn’t treat dating ads like they were spam.
That’s when I started looking into less mainstream networks with a bit more flexibility. I came across 7Search PPC and gave it a shot. I’m not going to hype it up or call it a miracle, but within a few days, I was seeing more relevant traffic—people who actually stuck around on my landing page.
A Little Advice, If You’re Still Struggling:
Don’t just follow the herd and dump your budget into the biggest ad networks. If you’re in dating, especially niche dating, you need to think about intent and context. Find platforms that actually let you test freely and reach people who are already in a discovery mindset.
If you’re in the mood to experiment, you can jump straight into a free test and see how your dating ads perform in a different environment. No pressure, but if what you’re doing now isn’t working, maybe it’s time to try something a little off the beaten path.
