If that is the case, then I am not sure how profitable it would be. I quit advertising FLING and AFF when I hit 5000 free members, exactly zero of which ever became paid members. These free sign ups don't convert, at least for me. If i am misunderstanding what you are trying to do, I apologize.

Of course it's legal. It's in my TOS, just like it's in every dating sites TOS. If you were a member of a free site and got outraged that that free site made you a free account at another dating site, too freaking bad, it's in the TOS. 99% of the members don't care, in fact many like like this. The average dating site member makes 3 to 5 profiles at different dating sites. Not just one so in fact most members have no problem whatsoever with what I'm doing. I get about one complaint every 1000 members about this, I simply hit the delete button and nuke thier account. If a member of a free dating site complains about ads on that free site fuck them. LOL That would be like a TGP surfer complaining about a banner on a TGP.
As far as free signups not converting, well they convert for me pretty good. I'm making over $2.00 per free member on my site from free trials converting to sales on many different dating sites.
If you sent 5000 free trials and did not make anything , something is very very wrong.
This month for example I apied 3040 members to naughtyconnect, 592 of those confirmed and began a free trial. Profit so far this month is $1240.00 from those 592 free trials. Naughtyconnect can confirm these stats. I have no reason to lie.
I also apied those same 3040 members to like 10 other dating sites.
Buyprofiles.com is not like that, when someone buys the member they are the only one buying them, it's a exclusive purchase.
