#3 Setting up a dating website

This is my favorite part. :) Now that you've got an idea for your new dating website, it's time to setup it up!

3.a - WordPress website hosting

Firstly, you are going to need a WordPress hosting provider. If you're not sure what a hosting provider is then you'd better catch up quick.  Check our our getting started video tutorials here; http://localhost/PREMIUMPRESS/gettingstarted/ When it comes to hosting no two provider are alike! Trust me, over the 10 years and 100,000+ websites installed using our Premium WordPress themes, we've met some weird and wonderful hosting account configurations. We now tend to stick to what works and save those that don't, for our competition. :) So that being said, here is a list of recommended providers that we've worked with for years.

3.b - Choosing a dating theme

There are many "dating themes" or "dating templates" as most of them are called and what they offer you is just that, a "template". To get the thing to work you need an IQ of 500 and a university degree from Harvard -  even then it's a 50%/50% chance it comes with any functionality. :wink: Over the 10 years we've been creating dating theme software, we've had some amazing feedback from clients and small business owners that have helped us develop a quality product that's trusted by over 50,000 clients worldwide.
