Welcome to the Social Networking Site that will have you hooked…
Now how can I describe it…
It’s a bit like Myspace/Faceparty but with more privacy and a dating slant. It’s all very simple. Log in and “tick” someone you like the look of. They won’t know you’ve ticked them unless they tick you back and you get a mutual tick! Cut out all the nonsense and be sure that the people you’re communicating with are on the same wavelength. How refreshing!
Tick Me is not just for dating. You can also make friends, build social groups and improve on your tickability! Check out the Tick League to see who is Top of the Ticks.
I have my own profile set up so come and tick me ..
And Join the World of Search Group ;)
…and it’s on Digg now!
OK ..
The way I see the Ticks is…
a) Hey = Like Hi…mates/friends that what’s why I ticked Shoemoney, That way I can send messages if he ticks me back
b) Looking Good = Looking Good kinda like a Hot Chick Mate :)
c) Hot Stuff = lets get dirty lol :)

Good to see a new player in this market. I am already curious to see how tickme wants to atract new users in this overcrowded market.
Thank you for sharing this story with me !
Interesting that the webmaster of TickMe is from Ripon ;)
Yer my team Built it ,,
I can’t remember the last site we plugged on this blog that we didn’t build or got paid for :-P
The green on that site makes my eyes hurt, not sure if its my gamma settings on this mac or the fact that its neon friggin green
And you should make a myspace widget… and 10,000 profiles… and…………
Try this group, people… Stalking DaveN. I’ve got him EXACTLY where I want him….
nice idea, and a small point but I hate the green, you should do an msn.com and allow people to change the colors, added bonus you will get to see if others dislike ‘luminous green’
hahaha
Amazingly some chap named Dave is number one in the worldwide Top 10, thats a lot of SEO love.

Dave, Tick Me needs a “Buy Dave a Drink” feature.
Since your launching with a US domain, maybe a globalization team to handle the linguistics… “Tick Me” doesn’t exactly translate the way you want.
Hi. Would you guys be interested in publishing an article I wrote on SEM in smaller and emerging markets like Portugal? If you are contact me (nuno.hipolito@searchmarketing.pt). I’m an SEO consultant in Portugal. Thanks. Nuno H.
Mightnt be the best example but beats wearing sunglasses when looking at a site
A “remember me” option would be nice. If you tick someone and view one of their pictures and go back you get the postdata warning.
Good work dave and team
Can’t wait till it has 20 Million users so that I can spam the hell out of it! I can see a dozen great ways already. If you start getting messages saying ‘I think you are cute too’ from a chesty blonde and she suggest that you check out her profile on this other “Free*” dating site… Ignore her - that’s just me.
Dude ! where’s my confirmation email ?
I’m missing out on valuable ticks.
What if I get the email and nobody ticks me ! Depression !
Not so sure I like the idea of not knowing someone has ticked you. Maybe some kind of anonymous note is sent with pieces of the persons profile to decide if you want to tick them back. Otherwise, you’ll have freaks like me going around ticking everyone until they find a mutual tick :)
What! No HTML in the profiles… Javascript on the website links. No way to send messages to people who have never heard of you. This site sucks - I’m going back to mySpace…
It is not letting me sign up. Says invalid picture and I tried different ones. :(
Dave, please go UTF-8. iso-8859-1 just sucks.
Besides that - pretty nice site :).
Okay Dave, I’m trying to fill out this profile thing to sign up and I’m super confused about the “Body Type” options here. I can extrapolate the intent of “Round and Proud”, “Big Boned”, “J-Lo Booty”, and “Lara Croft”, but “Average” is a tad vague and I completely have no idea what “Legs 11″ is supposed to be. Is it a nod to Spinal Tap and their custom made amp? Also, and not that I qualify for it, but why are you dissing the SuperModels amongst us? There’s no option for “Disappears when viewed in profile” or “Blows away in a strong breeze”.
Any clarification or help is appreciated!
Neil, is it the princess pic? That one is pre-banned.
DaveN says:
“I am a man looking to meet women
Marital Status: Married”
Nice.
Looks like http://www.consumating.com/
Women who don’t suck?
Aren’t all the horny guys on TickMe just going to tick all the women as hot in the hope that they get ONE of them to tick back and BINGO!
but isnt that the whole point of web? horny older guys abusing social sites to perv on 18-23 female students?
Yeah nuevojefe, if you are married you have to choose “not saying” for the sexuality question or it will say you are looking for someone.
Stalking DaveN group, joined. DaveN, ticked. tickbait.com, registered :)
TickMe’s rad but has a way to go before it’s as cool as SlapMeUpMyBitch.com…

Hey DaveN, one thing I noticed is that once you’ve gotten that mutual tick, there “novelty” wears off. There should be some way of continuing the tick trend beyond.
Love the simplicity.
Look forward to new features.
There are so many things you could do with a social networking site.
LOL. I joined and I was ticked. TY!!!! btw its cool when you make groups that the URL has the group name in it. Makes for a good SEO function!
Dave,
great site!
We need some kinda forum/BBS type features as an option to the IRC-type chat.
i’ve got hundreds of members in the various groups I’ve spawned during the launch, but no easy way to talk to them…
even a circa 1997 ‘guestbook would allow for communication one grade lower than real-time chat.
cheers!
