Gothic social networks

Ran into some gothic social networks recently, and couldn’t imagine that there were so many of them out there. At least now I sit corrected on the incorrect belief that Goths were people who liked and wore only black and didn’t mingle socially apart from themselves. Now, the below are sites for Goths to meet and mingle with other Goths.

Goth Passions i
AS free online dating & social networking community site for Goth singles. Meet other Goth singles into clubbing, Goth literature or whatever including the occult.

Gothic Love Online
One of the top Gothic dating sites in North America and a safe, fun and effective online dating community. Members decide when, where and who they connect with.

Vampirefreaks
An online community site that allows each of its members to post and view profiles, text, pictures, video, audio, and other content. Membership is free, although premium services are available.

Necrotica
An 18+ Dark Alternative Web Community with an extensive network of members from across the US and around the world. Their members consist of many different subcultural groups with alternative lifestyles who enjoy meeting, socializing & networking with others who share similar interests. Membership is free, although premium services are available.

Gothic Personals
Run by Goths for Goths and provide real free access to all their features. Members can upload photos, chat, take quizzes, send messages and various other facilities.

There are so many more out there - so keep searching !

New Trends In Online Traffic

The dramatic success of those Internet categories is apparent from a recent online-traffic analysis provided by market research firm ComScore Media Metrix, which examined visitor growth rates among the 50 top Web sites over the past year.

Top-ranked sites growing the most, ComScore's data showed, were Blogger.com, a personal publishing site; MySpace.com, where young people do virtual preening and share musical tastes; Wikipedia, an open reference site jointly edited by millions of people; and Citysearch, a network of local guides focused on cities.

Basically, visits to Sites for Blogging, Local Information and Social Networks Drive Web Growth

A datasheet is on the right

Anyway, while the news is good for both myspace and blogger, I reckon myspace needs to upgrade their blogging facilities.

All the best for them
