Description:
(URL removed) is a unique website that capitalizes on people’s temptations by providing an anonymous online confessional for those interested in the topic of infidelity, while blending entertainment and real life drama.
The site provides multiple avenues for user interaction and includes 5 categories of infidelity: Cheater, Cheated On, Thinking About Cheating, Other Person, and Suspecting Of Cheating. Currently in development the sections called "Help Me Choose" and "Q & A" will bring about a larger user base. Help Me Choose allows people the ability to have their peers choose who they should date based on factors provided (height, weight, education level, etc). Q & A provides people an area to ask questions that do not fit in the traditional categories listed in confessions. While being a niche market our different sections along with the other future features that are designed give (URL removed) a much larger user base than assumed.
Though our marketing/advertising budget has been extremely limited we have experienced respectable success. CheatConfession has been mentioned on numerous radio shows syndicated throughout the U.S.A. and other countries. The site has been featured on (URL removed),(URL removed), (URL removed), and (URL removed) (multiple times).
Short term goal: To establish an active community and readership to increase the site’s global presence in the topic of infidelity and relationships.
Long term goal: To become a solidified brand transcending the website by spanning several markets within the relationship genre and extending across various media platforms (e.g. radio, books, television, etc.).
