Webdate.com Partners With Hollywood.com to Promote the Ultimate Dating Experience

Webdate.com Partners With Hollywood.com to Promote the Ultimate Dating Experience

Joint Marketing Program Targets Singles in Miami, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and New York City

MIAMI, Dec. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Webdate.com(TM), the world's fastest- growing webdating community, and Hollywood.com, today announced a joint marketing program titled, "Movie and a Date," aimed at bringing single men and women together in some of the nation's hot spots for dating.

Through the marketing deal, Webdate will further expand the dating experience for its "webdating" community. The campaign includes an "Ultimate Date" sweepstakes and weekly "Bring your Stub to the Club" events, which are being marketed through Hollywood.com and select partner sites. From these websites, singles can link to more information on how to enter the sweepstakes at no cost by becoming a new Webdate.com member.

The "Movie and a Date" weekly movie and nightclub events in Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami and New York City will be capped off at the end of six months with an all-expenses paid trip to the Paris Las Vegas hotel and casino for five Webdate.com couples: one winner from each of the four cities and one winner selected at-large nationwide. New members and all existing Webdate.com members will be eligible to win one of the "Ultimate Date" packages.

In addition, moviegoers in the four metro areas can attend pre-show parties sponsored by Scene it? and "play the party game everyone's talking about" followed by an event at an area nightclub. The first two events kick off December 15 for a showing of Ocean's 12 in Miami and the release Closer in New York City, with after-movie parties held at Lotus in New York and Oxygen Lounge in Miami.

"In building a relationship, whether for love or friendship, experience matters," said Abe Smilowitz, president and CEO of Webdate. "We reject the assumption by some that compatibility testing alone can help singles create meaningful relationships. It doesn't work. That's why Webdate provides free services like real-time video chat. That's why we've joined with Hollywood.com to provide fun, offline events for the online singles crowd."

The "Movie and a Date" events and "Ultimate Date" sweepstakes are being marketed to singles across the United States via the Web and direct email campaigns. Offline and online daters alike can sign up online at Webdate.com to be eligible to win travel courtesy of Orbitz and accommodations at the Paris Las Vegas hotel and casino for the Ultimate Date vacation.
