Want your own dating site? Check out Chameleon

Back in the days of computer bulletin boards, if you couldn't find a BBS devoted to your favorite topic, or didn't like ones that were already online, you could start your own. All you needed was one of the many available software packages and a few phone lines and almost overnight you became a sysop.

Now you can do the same thing on the Internet. A California company called Chameleon will set you up with your own dating or social networking website. Buy their core engine and one of their templates and you're in business. They even host your service.

The Chameleon script has a collection of features, including video chat, that you can turn on or off. And it's written in PHP, which is easier to customize than many other coding languages. Chameleon also has mobile versions for Android and iOS.

The core engine for Chameleon cost $97. Templates start at $67 and, if you're planning a dating site, Chameleon will sell you 1,000 fake profiles for $47 to get it going. Get all the details at the Chameleon website.
