The key to long-lasting romance: COMPATIBILITY is exactly STRICT PERSONALITY SIMILARITY and not "meet other people with similar interests or political views".  
 
Online Dating sites have very big databases, in the range of 20,000,000 (twenty million) profiles, so the Big Five normative model or the HEXACO normative model are not enough for predictive purposes. That is why I suggest the normative 16PF6 test instead and another method to calculate similarity.

High precision in matching algorithms is precisely the key to open the door and leave the infancy of compatibility testing.
 

Without offering the NORMATIVE 16PF6 (or similar test measuring exactly the 16 personality factors) for serious dating, it will be impossible to innovate and revolutionize the Online Dating Industry.

Another New Silly Patent for eHarmony: SOCIAL MATCHING ???





https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/89/5e/7f/a64a32f4857f82/US20190319910A1.pdf

New Silly Patent for eHarmony: SOCIAL MATCHING
https://onlinedatingsoundbarrier.blogspot.com/2019/06/new-silly-patent-for-eharmony-social.html



eHarmony is ONLY a 19+++  years old obsolete site and a HOAX, based on a big scientific fraud, only sustained by big marketing budget.
The Big Five normative test used by eHarmony, had been proven/revealed as an incomplete and incorrect model to assess/measure personality of persons.
 

It is a HOAX, a FRAUD to use the Big Five normative test in year 2019. 

The Online Dating Industry is selling elixirs, tonics, snake oil liniments and other patent medicine and performing like the Pharmaceutical and Cosmetic Industry before the USA Food and Drug Administration was created where any player can make any claim without any credentials.

Mi Media Manzana, the Peruvian dating app, ceases operations


https://www.contxto.com/en/peru/mi-media-manzana-the-peruvian-dating-app-ceases-operations/


The Peruvian startup turned the lights off and exited countries where it was operating including Mexico, Colombia, Chile, and Peru. After six years of operations, the company will be formally over on June 20.
“We were looking to increase the retention rate to increase the volume of active users,” said (the CEO). “Freemium models work thanks to the percentage of paying active users. In order to be successful, though, we needed at least 2 percent of active users to actually switch over to the paid version, but we were in the 0.5 to 1 percent range.”

eHarmony is developing an A.I. feature

The Online Dating Industry needs INNOVATIONS, not more bells and whistles.
Lack Of Innovation & Decadence can summarize the Online Dating Industry.
C-Level executives are more worried about their golf scores than their company’s long term strategy and innovations.
C-level executives are cooking barbecues under the water (selling smoke) and not paying attention to latest research from Academics which could be beneficial for the Online Dating Industry.
 

The key to long-lasting romance: COMPATIBILITY is exactly STRICT PERSONALITY SIMILARITY and not "meet other people with similar interests or political views".  

High precision in matching algorithms is precisely the key to open the door and leave the infancy of compatibility testing.
