Hypotheses: According to Japanese trade body Camera and Imaging Products Association (CIPA), over 110 million digital cameras are sold every year. According to Gartner, 250 million cell phones are sold every quarter. According to USA Today, 70 million photos are uploaded to Facebook every day.
Conclusion: NOBODY has no digital photo of themselves anymore.
Hypothesis: According to eHarmony, posting a photo increases one’s reply rate up to nine times.
Conclusion: If the registration questionnaire makes photos a required step, then 100% of all members will have up to nine times more communication requests their very first day. If 60% of the matching pool have no photos and all of them uploaded at least one photo, then site-wide member communications will increase up to 114%. Obviously, 0% of one’s matches will be closed for having no photos. Finally, Photo Nudges are gone; that’s one less site function that can break.
P.S. What do you propose the site will do if one delete’s one’s photos? I propose that the photoless profile be automatically closed, with the message “We’re sorry; this member’s profile is no longer available”. The member should get a warning of course before deleting his last photo.
